Title
English: Wayside Mission Hospital, ca. 1904
Description
English: From its early days, Seattle was a rough place, particularly around the waterfront. There was little or no emergency care for people who couldn't pay. In 1899, the Seattle Benevolent Society bought the old side-wheel steamboat "Idaho," and set it up at the foot of Jackson Street as the Wayside Mission Hospital. The hospital moved ashore in 1907 and closed in 1909, when the city opened its own emergency hospital in the Public Safety Building.

This photo shows the Wayside Mission Hospital in an old steamboat at the foot of Jackson Street. The 41-bed emergency hospital treated people who couldn't afford a doctor.
