  In 1905, 24 patients of Dr. Edwin Solly's were admitted to Cragmor Sanatorium, making them the first to receive care on the grounds of the newly opened consumptive hospital.
  
  By 1911, 67 people were receiving care as Cragmor patients. 39 were men and 28 of them women. All patients ranged in age, but the average age of a consumptive receiving care at this time was 30 years old, the oldest being 47 and the youngest being 18 years old.
  
  By 1926, Cragmor had patients from 30 different states and over 7 countries. The youngest patient was barely 5 years old and the oldest 50 years of age. The typical patient was 27-30 years old during this "Golden Age" of Cragmor Sanatorium.
  
  By the 1940's the patients being seen had increased with the addition of the non-profit bailout, but the patients saw harsh living conditions and unsanitary care more than ever before. The sanatorium had turned into a nightmare.
