ground of increased subscriptions to the hospital from
private sources, to a larger representation on the Joint

with the Tyrone County Council, and, after considering their

Committee from twenty-four to twenty-seven, of whom sixteen
will be appointed by the County Council, and eleven by the
Corporation of Governors and Governesses. +
