Description | Jaques Cuillié, a 50 year old man born in Paris, requests to be admitted to the Hospital. His father, also called Jaques, was a leather worker in Paris, specialising in making holders for arms. Jaques was a chiseler but his poor economic condition forced him to place his children at the Westminster French Protestant School. For the past two years, he has been paralysed, so his wife and himself have been living in the workhouse of Bethnal Green. His wife has recently passed away and he would like to enter the Hospital. The petition is signed by James Sanders; Pierre Perochon; Jn Hawkin, Church warden at St Matthew's; Pierre Paumier; Nicolas Massy, Teacher at the Westminster French Protestant School; Anne Le Monnier; Jn Gilson and William Mosley. |
