Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York July 1, 1900 (Johnson v. Buffalo Homœopathic Hospital)

Spring, J.:

The appellant is a charitable institution and in 1892 its various boards and supporters were exploiting a project to erect a new hospital building at a cost not to exceed $100,000. Their ability to consummate this purpose depended upon their success in raising this large sum of money by subscription.
