Framed Prints
Framed Print of The Five Principal Institutions founded by the late Dr. Andrew Reed, 1862. Creator: Unknown
The Asylum for Fatherless Children at Reedham, the Infant Orphan Asylum at Wanstead, the Idiot Asylum at Earlswood, the London Orphan Asylum at Clapton, and the Royal Hospital for Incurables at Putney. Throughout the whole course of Dr. Reed's connection with these institutions he never received one shilling from them, but was always a large, and often a secret, contributor to their funds. This self- denying devotion is still further illustrated by the following bequests: £100 to the Wanstead Asylum, the interest to be applied for ever in the purchase of playthings for the children, to be given them at Christmas. £300 to the London Orphan Asylum, the interest to be applied for ever to provide the children with suitable lectures on the natural sciences, to be delivered, with illustrations, each winter. £1000 to the Reedham Asylum for Fatherless Children. £1000 to the Asylum for Idiots. Finally, these institutions, thus endowed, their noble founder bequeaths to his country, with an earnest prayer that they may be watched over with wisdom and benevolence; that they may be preserved in efficient operation; and that they may remain, age after age, memorials of, that Divine charity which exalteth and glorifieth a people'.
