ST. Vincent's hospital.
St. Vincent's Hospital, conducted by the Sisters of Charity of Providence, was established September 29, 1874, and incorporated in 1876 according to the laws of the state of Oregon, The original building was situated in North Port- land on Northrup street, between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets, a wooden structure and sufficiently spacious to accommodate from fifty to seventy-five patients.

To the south and within two blocks of St. Vincent's is the city park, a natural reserve which wealth has beautified and made most attractive; thither the pa- tients may saunter and while away the time during convalescence.
