Auntie Grace at the County Hospital

Black and white photograph of four women at the County Hospital. Left to right: unidentified, unidentified, unidentified, and Auntie Grace Silga. Juanita Sulay Wilson remembers that Auntie Grace was in the hospital because of Tuberculosis and was in the TB Ward. The writing on the back was hand written by Auntie Grace. It states "August 18/'46, Me & my 3 cellmates at the Co. Hospital." In the lower right hand corner there is writing by Virginia Viner Sulay that says "Grace 1st on right."
