Julius Millingen, Announcement of the Infirmaries opened at Missolonghi and Athens, [1824]
“NOTICE.
“A public dispensary will be opened at Mesolonghi on the
10th of January, under the superintendence of Mr.
J. Millingen.
“The chief object of this institution is to give medical
advice and medicines, gratis, to the poor and soldiers. Every one else may,
however, receive medicines and apply for advice, by paying a moderate
consideration.
“In order to prevent abuses, the soldiers are expected
to bring a certificate from their capitano; and the poor, one, undersigned by a
magistrate.
“The indigent sick, who are confined to their beds, ![]()

Mr. Millingen, has been sent by the
Greek Committee of London.”
