    Following the article on Henry W Peek's offer concerning the Bethlehem Royal Hospital, St Thomas's Hospital, and the London Hospital (PU1/44/9/5), the author points out that Peek's condition that £21,000 should be given to the London Hospital could be met by the governors of St Thomas's, who would then be able to enjoy the benefits of relocating their hospital to the site of the old Bethlehem Hospital. Punch thinks the governors should announce whether or not they will do so.
