Morbid curiosity would have made me look to see if there were any files in that file cabinet. I once had the luck to have to "clean out" a dark scary basement for a company and found a bank of file cabinets. In them were all kinds of fascinating reading, company history, legal papers, everything. I spent two weeks down there reading!!

A new gallery - made my day. Thanks for the historical photos, they add more dimension to the history and to your recent photos. They certainly had austere beds - iron and very thin, with very thin looking mattresses. What a shame these lovely stone buildings have to go to waste.
That's all that would have to happen, be walking down this hallway and have some rabid critter jump out at me! HA!

Motts, did you take the photo for that album cover? They are so like.
It's amazing that the paint isn't peeling off in sheets like in most of these places. Here it just seems to be flaking off in spots.
That dotted line down the middle of the ceiling looks like a "cut here" line. Is that the roof pulling apart or a light fixture or just a play on light and dark, it's kind of hard to tell.
That still looks pretty good, like just a good cleaning would bring it back -

These are absolutely gorgeous. I love cemeteries. I also love your work, Motts. So the combination just makes my day!
The ceiling looks pretty decent compared to the rest of the hall.
I absolutely love old medical rooms, offices, fixtures, books and would like to find some of this stuff for sale. Like that fantastic cabinet on the left, or any of the contraptions on the right. Maybe I was a doctor in a prior life?
Those doors look a little narrow.
That looks like my closet -
