Historical Details
Matron L.M. McClymont was employed at the Launceston Home for Invalids in the early 1950s. Little else is known about her, but it is interesting that her contribution to the church was an aid for the elderly and frail. The late Jenny Gill recorded that she was with the Launceston General Hospital in September 1950, when the rails were donated, but this might be a misunderstanding. The gift was noted in the Parish Messenger of Sept. 1950Materials
