Scope and Content:

Undated photographic print of the Abbott House at 66 South Street in Concord, NH. A photocopy of the caption states, "September 23, 1896 the 'Woman's Hospital Aid Association' purchased the property at an expense of seven thousand dollars, funds in the treasury enabled them to pay in cash five thousand dollars, and they gave a mortgage for the remainder of the purchase price. Some immediate changes had to be made; but with friends contributing to the furnishing of it, it was ready for occupancy October 10, 1896. Mrs. Abbott was interested in the hospital project and intended to give the house for that purpose, but before papers could be made she was stricken with a fatal illness and her benevolent design was not carried out."
