Mis\u00e8re noire<\/p>\n

Dans une mansarde portant le No 807 de la rue Cadieux vivaient deux vieillards dans la mis\u00e8re la plus grande, un homme et une femme mari\u00e9s. Depuis quelque temps, le mari \u00e9tait retenu au lit par la maladie, et tout l\u2019argent du m\u00e9nage a \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9pens\u00e9 durant le cours de cette maladie. N\u2019ayant plus personne pour subvenir \u00e0 leurs besoins, les deux vieillards allaient p\u00e9rir de faim, sans l\u2019intervention d\u2019un voisin qui d\u00e9couvrit leur \u00e9tat de d\u00e9laissement et de pauvret\u00e9 extr\u00eame. Quand cette lugubre d\u00e9couverte fut faite, le mari \u00e9tait \u00e0 la derni\u00e8re extr\u00e9mit\u00e9. On fit venir la voiture de l\u2019ambulance de l\u2019h\u00f4pital Notre-Dame et les deux victimes de la mis\u00e8re furent conduites \u00e0 cette institution. Quand le m\u00e9decin de l\u2019h\u00f4pital fit son apparition dans ce taudis, il nous a dit qu\u2019il s\u2019en \u00e9chappait une odeur insupportable. L\u2019on peut difficilement, ajouta-il, se faire une id\u00e9e de son \u00e9tat de d\u00e9labrement, d\u2019abandon et de nudit\u00e9. On ne croirait pas sans l\u2019avoir vu que dans ces appartements vivaient des \u00eatres raisonnables.<\/p>\n

Hospices were not exclusively for the destitute. Between the eighteenth century and the 1970s, many older women asked to live out their days in the care of a religious congregation. In exchange, the women would bequeath all of their belongings, donate a sum of money or provide a little work. Legal documents spelled out the details of these agreements.<\/p>\n

    This booklet setting out the rules for elderly residents of Quebec City\u2019s H\u00f4pital-G\u00e9n\u00e9ral offers a glimpse into the daily lives of elderly men living in an institution. Far from the idealized image of seniors enjoying the porch swing, institutional life involved performing menial tasks and following a strict schedule. Most importantly, those living in a hospice were expected to remain obedient and silent.<\/p>\n

        1. Comme il est nuisible au corps et \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de demeurer dans l\u2019oisivet\u00e9, tous ceux qui seront re\u00e7us dans l\u2019h\u00f4pital doivent comprendre qu\u2019il leur est avantageux d\u2019\u00eatre occup\u00e9s selon leurs forces et leur capacit\u00e9. Les uns, par exemple, peuvent se rendre utiles dans la salle m\u00eame suivant le d\u00e9sir de l\u2019hospitali\u00e8re qui aura soin d\u2019assigner \u00e0 chacun les t\u00e2ches. D\u2019autres encore pourront travailler dehors au jardin, dans les cours, et m\u00eame sur la ferme suivant le besoin, le temps et les saisons. Et \u00e0 ce propos chacun doit savoir que dans les lettres patentes du roi Louis XIV pour l\u2019\u00e9rection de cet h\u00f4pital (1692), il est dit express\u00e9ment que \u00ab les invalides des deux sexes seront employ\u00e9s aux ouvrages et travaux selon leur pouvoir, m\u00eame \u00e0 la culture des terres, des fermes d\u00e9pendantes du dit h\u00f4pital\u2026 \u00bb<\/li>\n
        2. Aucune personne, en qualit\u00e9 de pauvre, dans la salle ne pourra faire des ouvrages pour les personnes du dehors sans la permission sp\u00e9ciale de l\u2019hospitali\u00e8re.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          LA CONDUITE PERSONNELLE<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Comme toutes les personnes qui demeurent dans l\u2019h\u00f4pital doivent se soumettre au pr\u00e9sent r\u00e8glement, il est n\u00e9cessaire qu\u2019elles en soient instruites, et en comprennent tous les articles, pour cela elles se rendront ponctuelles et attentives \u00e0 la lecture que leur en fera l\u2019hospitali\u00e8re ou toute autre qu\u2019elle en voudra charger afin de bien appr\u00e9cier le prix et les avantages qu\u2019elles peuvent retirer de l\u2019ordre de la distribution de toutes leurs actions.<\/li>\n
          2. Tous les pauvres et autres personnes de l\u2019h\u00f4pital doivent savoir qu\u2019elles sont oblig\u00e9es de porter respect et soumission \u00e0 toutes les religieuses du Monast\u00e8re et particuli\u00e8rement aux hospitali\u00e8res charg\u00e9es du soin sp\u00e9cial de leur salle auxquelles tous doivent ob\u00e9ir comme \u00e0 la M\u00e8re Sup\u00e9rieure.<\/li>\n
          3. Les religieuses ayant la conduite du dit h\u00f4pital sont charg\u00e9es de la responsabilit\u00e9 et sont oblig\u00e9es d\u2019y tenir le bon ordre, en veillant \u00e0 la tranquillit\u00e9 et au bon comportement de toutes les personnes confi\u00e9es \u00e0 leur soin. En cons\u00e9quence elles ont le droit d\u2019admettre telles personnes qu\u2019elles jugeront \u00e0 propos. Elles peuvent aussi et m\u00eame elles doivent renvoyer ceux qui par leurs discours, leurs obstinations ou tout autre d\u00e9faut donneraient mauvais exemple ou troubleraient la paix et l\u2019harmonie de cette maison de charit\u00e9 et de mis\u00e9ricorde.<\/li>\n
          4. Tous nos bons invalides devant former entre eux comme une seule famille, comprendront qu\u2019ils doivent avoir \u00e0 c\u0153ur les int\u00e9r\u00eats de la maison o\u00f9 ils sont re\u00e7us, log\u00e9s, nourris et soign\u00e9s pour le reste de leurs jours. Il se garderont donc bien en tout temps de faire connaitre au dehors les petites mis\u00e8res les uns des autres ou de parler d\u00e9savantageusement soit de la maison soit des personnes de l\u2019h\u00f4pital.<\/li>\n
          5. Aucune personne de l\u2019h\u00f4pital ne pourra s\u2019absenter pour aller \u00e0 la ville, ou ailleurs, sans une permission sp\u00e9ciale de l\u2019hospitali\u00e8re ou de la Sup\u00e9rieure.<\/li>\n
          6. Messieurs les m\u00e9decins donneront leurs soins aux malades selon qu\u2019ils en seront pri\u00e9s par les religieuses, mais il n\u2019est permis \u00e0 personne de se pr\u00e9senter \u00e0 eux, de les consulter, ou de prendre m\u00e9decine sans la permission de l\u2019hospitali\u00e8re.<\/li>\n
          7. Il ne sera permis \u00e0 personne de recevoir de la boisson sans la permission des hospitali\u00e8res, encore moins d\u2019en acheter ou d\u2019en faire acheter pour soi ou pour d\u2019autres.<\/li>\n
          8. Tout ce qui est donn\u00e9 \u00e0 chaque particulier par les parents ou autres personnes doit \u00eatre donn\u00e9 en soin aux hospitali\u00e8res.<\/li>\n
          9. Tout ce que les pauvres d\u00e9laisseront \u00e0 leur d\u00e9c\u00e8s, hardes, linge, etc. reste la propri\u00e9t\u00e9 de l\u2019h\u00f4pital.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Les flammes causent pour plus de 100,000$ de d\u00e9g\u00e2ts \u00e0 l\u2019Hospice Gamelin<\/strong><\/p>\n

            L\u2019incendie, d\u2019une violence extraordinaire, est maitris\u00e9 par la brigade avant qu\u2019il atteigne les \u00e9tages inf\u00e9rieurs, apr\u00e8s quatre heures de combat.<\/p>\n

            SAUVETAGE \u00c9MOUVANTS<\/p>\n

            La buanderie de la maison-m\u00e8re des S\u0153urs de la Providence hospitalisera la plupart des vieillards. \u2013 Malade qui succombe \u00e0 une syncope.<\/em><\/p>\n

            L\u2019hospice Gamelin, refuge de nombreux vieillards, une autre des plus importantes institutions dirig\u00e9es par les S\u0153urs de la Providence, a \u00e9t\u00e9 la proie des flammes, ce matin. Un des vieillards, bien que sa vie ne f\u00fbt aucunement menac\u00e9e par les flammes, a succomb\u00e9 \u00e0 une syncope pendant que, par mesure de prudence, on transportait tous les malades et infirmes \u00e0 la maison m\u00e8re qui se trouve \u00e0 l\u2019arri\u00e8re.<\/p>\n

            C\u2019est la troisi\u00e8me maison dirig\u00e9e par les religieuses de la Providence qui est la proie de l\u2019incendie en moins d\u2019une ann\u00e9e ; l\u2019h\u00f4pital des incurables, d\u2019abord, puis, quelques mois plus tard, l\u2019Institut Bruch\u00e9si, rue Saint-Hubert, et, enfin, ce matin, l\u2019hospice Gamelin, rue Dufresne, pr\u00e8s de Sainte-Catherine. Il est pratiquement impossible de fixer un chiffre pour les pertes, le feu faisant encore rage dans l\u2019immeuble, mais, au dire des pompiers comme des religieuses, elles d\u00e9passeront certainement $100,000.<\/p>\n

            PREMI\u00c8RE ALARME<\/p>\n

            Un peu avant 8 heures, la plupart des religieuses \u00e9taient \u00e0 prendre le d\u00e9jeuner, dans le r\u00e9fectoire de la communaut\u00e9, au premier \u00e9tage, quand soudain, on per\u00e7ut une forte odeur de fum\u00e9e. On fit imm\u00e9diatement des recherches et l\u2019on d\u00e9couvrit, en quelques instants, que l\u2019incendie, jusqu\u2019ici inexplicable, avait pris naissance au quatri\u00e8me \u00e9tage de l\u2019hospice, lequel est occup\u00e9 par les vieillards. Une premi\u00e8re alarme fut imm\u00e9diatement sonn\u00e9e \u00e0 l\u2019avertisseur priv\u00e9 de l\u2019institution. D\u00e9j\u00e0, les flammes faisaient rage au-dessus de la cage d\u2019un escalier, au plafond du dernier \u00e9tage.<\/p>\n

            LES SAUVETAGES<\/p>\n

            Le premier soin des religieuses fut de songer \u00e0 la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 des malades et tout le personnel fut imm\u00e9diatement dirig\u00e9 de ce c\u00f4t\u00e9. En attendant l\u2019arriv\u00e9e du premier contingent de la brigade, les religieuses d\u00e9vou\u00e8rent pour les vieillards et l\u2019on commen\u00e7a \u00e0 les descendre dans les longs escaliers. Plusieurs sont infirmes et l\u2019on dut les descendre dans leurs chaises ou sur des matelas. Ceux qui pouvaient marcher, sous la direction de gardiennes, re\u00e7urent l\u2019ordre de se rendre \u00e0 la maison m\u00e8re, qui se trouve r\u00e9unie \u00e0 l\u2019hospice par des passerelles \u00e9lev\u00e9es au-dessus des cours de l\u2019institution.<\/p>\n

            Monsieur le Ministre,<\/p>\n

            Excusez-moi si je me permets de vous adresser un mot, c\u2019est parce que j\u2019ai \u00e9cout\u00e9 tous vos discours \u00e0 la radio et vous dites que votre gouvernement fourni beaucoup pour les h\u00f4pitaux et les institutions de charit\u00e9 surtout pour les vieillards indigents, j\u2019ai un fr\u00e8re qui \u00e0 60 ans (Philippe Curodeau C\u00e9libataire) qui ne travaille pas depuis une dizaine d\u2019ann\u00e9es \u00e9tant incapable de travailler, il reste avec mon fr\u00e8re qui \u00e0 une famille et qui manque du n\u00e9cessaire. Nous avons essay\u00e9 tous les moyens pour le faire entrer \u00e0 l\u2019Hospice St-Joseph de la D\u00e9livrance \u00e0 L\u00e9vis, mais c\u2019est impossible, nous avons parl\u00e9 \u00e0 la Sup\u00e9rieure, \u00e0 notre Cur\u00e9, au maire de notre paroisse (St-Romuald) qui nous a donn\u00e9 une lettre, mais tout a \u00e9t\u00e9 inutile. Veuillez s.v.p. nous venir en aide. Dans notre village, il n\u2019est jamais entr\u00e9 personne \u00e0 l\u2019Hospice par charit\u00e9, c\u2019\u00e9taient seulement des vieux riches, ce serait le premier par charit\u00e9, il irait dans n\u2019importe lequel hospice pourvu qu\u2019il soit bien plac\u00e9, nous sommes tous de vieux lib\u00e9raux.<\/p>\n

            Esp\u00e9rant recevoir une r\u00e9ponse favorable,<\/p>\n

            Je suis votre tr\u00e8s oblig\u00e9e,<\/p>\n

            Nous, vieillards de l’H\u00f4tel-Dieu de Nicolet, venons porter plainte pour le mal soin que nous avons dans cette ospice. Nous souffrons de la faim et du froid et nos infirmes et malades sont rudoyer par une main rude et brutale rempla\u00e7ant un homme Hab\u00e9naki qui poss\u00e9dait une exp\u00e9rience de 26 ans, un homme qui connaissait notre souffrance. Inutile dans dire plus. Je termine en comptant sur votre appuie.<\/p>\n
