Hubert Work, founder?
[edit]According to the source currently in the article, a webpage at UVM about eugenics in Colorado, 'Dr. Hubert Work was the founder of the Colorado State Hospital (1896).' However, the online Colorado Encyclopedia says, 'The asylum's first permanent building opened on November 20, 1883, under the care of Superintendent Pembroke R. Thombs. ... Under pressure to expand, in 1924 LaMoure purchased the Woodcroft Sanitarium, a private mental hospital in Pueblo established by Hubert Work'. It seems likely that the encyclopedia is a more reliable source on this subject, and that Work founded a different hospital.
