HARPER HOSPITAL. 4
Succeeding Dr. Farrand, Dr. Wynkoop, a surgeon of volunteers from Philadelphia, was placed in charge, remaining until the close of the hospital, in December, 1865.
The buildings were soon after given by the Government to the trustees of the "Harper Hospital, " a corporate body, this association having in contemplation the establishment of a hospital for charitable purposes.
In giving the buildings, the Government made a condition that sufficient accommodation should be at all times afforded for a "Soldiers' Home" for invalid and destitute Michigan soldiers and sailors, and since then it has been in part used for that purpose. " '
