Study Club met in January

The Warren Antiques Study Club heard about a Warren County institution — in the figurative and literal senses — at its Jan. 24 meeting. Longtime Warren State Hospital employee Samantha Whitaker spoke about the history of the hospital, from the purchase of land in the area to the mining of local stone for the construction of the Main Building, which lasted from 1874 to 1880. Landscaping, including fountains and tree-lined drives, have been maintained to the present, she said. The facility was initially built for 650 patients — the first of which was admitted on Dec. 5, 1880. The population was 1,116 in 1916 and 152 today. The club will meet on Monday, Feb. 28, at the Woman’s Club of Warren.
