Charlotte’s new hospital set-up with a large Memorial Hospital combining the old St. Peter’s will at the same time perpetuate the name by means of a section in the new structure to be known as “St. Peter’s Wing,” the Rev. John L. Jackson declared to Executive Council meeting in Raleigh on September 20. His remarks were part of his report as chairman of the Christian Social Service Department. “Memorials will be preserved in this new wing, and also a special feature will probably be a chapel constructed by the ladies of the Church Service League of St. Peter’s Church, Charlotte.”
