Stack

This is an impressive octagon stack. It was behind St. Joseph's Hall. Anyone have any idea what this complex was, back in the day?

 

St. Joseph's Hospital--Deer Lodge

Origin: The Hospital was established the latter part of the 1890's by the order of Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth, Kansas. It was a general hospital, with a nursery to care for children on a boarding basis. The hospital accepted unmarried mothers three or four months prior to their due date. The women were then allowed to remain to work in the hospital following delivery. From Montana History WIKI - Montana Orphanages
