==Charitable Work==
George Macculloch Miller and several others began a series of charitable collections among churches and business groups in as early as 1882.〔http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=F40815FC3E5910738DDDA00A94DA415B8284F0D3 ''"Co-operative Hospital work"'' New York Times December 29, 1882〕]In 1893, a committee was appointed "to take steps to have Hospital Saturday and Sunday observed throughout the United States." Members of the committee included Miller, Charles Lanier, (Morris K.Jesup ), Samuel D. Babcock, Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jesse Seligman, Jacob H. Schiff, and (Charles Stewart Smith ).〔''"Hospital Saturday and Sunday"''. New York Times, Nov. 21, 1893〕 The goal of this organization was to have a second collection in churches across the United States and have the money disbursed to hospitals for assistance to indigents. This developed into a larger organization eventually becoming the United Hospital Fund.
