LIND HOSPITAL AND TRAINING SCHOOL

The Lind Hospital and Training School was established by Rev. W. J. Lind in
the city of Hoisington and was thrown open to the public in February, 1912. It
is a general hospital for the treatment of medical and surgical cases and is one
of the best equipped institutions of the kind in this part of the country. The
building, which is three stories in height, is located in a most desirable spot
in the northwest part of Hoisington within eight blocks of the business section.
The building is made of brick with re-enforced concrete floors. The building of
this hospital was due to the fact that Dr. Lind, while a minister of the gospel,
has always been interested in the treatment and cure of diseases of the human
race. He was born near the Ural mountains, in Russia, April 11, 1881. He came to
America in 1902 and spent the first year after his arrival in travel during
which time he visited all parts of the United States and Canada. In 1903 he
entered the Concordia Seminary at Concordia, Illinois. He finished his studies
at this institution in 1910. During the year 1908 Rev. Lind was in the field as
a missionary. At the conclusion of his studies he was ordained a minister of the
German Lutheran church, and at once accepted a call from Milberger, Kansas,
where he remained until he started the hospital in Hoisington. He still has
charge of congregations of this denomination at Galatia and Wilson.

The hospital has room for thirty patients in addition to the rooms that are
maintained by the Missouri Pacific railroad. The operating room at the hospital
is equipped with all the most modern appliances and devices for the practice of
surgery in its most intricate forms. Dr. Lind spent two and a half years in the
study of medicine in the old country before coming to America.

He was married September 1, 1910, to Miss Matilda Borell and they have one bright boy, Alexander, who, at this writing, is one year old.

Rev. Dr. Wilhelm J. Lind and Mathilda "Tilly" Borrell had 5 children: Alexander Emanuel, Wilburn Otto "Bill", Helen Ruth, Anna Marie Caroline and Elsie Mathilda.
