Approved March 20, 1916.

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That
the board of supervisors of Rockingham county shall have au-
thority, in their discretion, to make appropriations from county
funds in aid or support of the Rockingham memorial hospital,
at Harrisonburg, in the said county, not to exceed the sum of
five hundred dollars in any one year. Such appropriation shall
be upon the condition, whether so expressed at the time or not,
that the hospital shall, during the year for which an appropria-
tion is made, receive and care for indigent patients from the
county, to the extent that the appropriation for the year will
pay their expenses in the hospital at the usual rate of charges.

The board of supervisors shall determine upon what author-
ity such patients shall be designated, and received at the hospital.
