A privately owned hospital and sanitarium in the lumbering town of Davis, WV located in the Canaan Valley. It boasted a nursing school in the early to mid 1920s. The hospital was active until at least early 1926.[1] Presumably the location was chosen for it's altitude, which contemporaries believed were beneficial to the treatment of lung diseases.
