Overview
That institution's origins, according to the Medical Society of South Carolina: \"In 1829, philanthropist and former mayor of Charleston Colonel Thomas Roper bequeathed $30,000 to a group of Charleston physicians, known collectively as the Medical Society of South Carolina (MSSC), to build a hospital to treat all sick and injured people 'without regard to complexion, religion, or nation.' The Medical Society pooled the colonel's gift with other funds, built the original hospital on what is now the corner of Queen and Logan streets, and named it for its primary benefactor.\"
