Elizabeth's is the healed — the 'hospital' that's the building's first, the 'company's' that's the owner's kind. The 'daughter named' is the honored — the 'Sam Parks' that's the father's role, the 'mill town' that's the reason's whole. The 'planned whole' is the built — the 'Industrial Lumber' that's the company's name, the 'porches' that's the town's mark.
The 'patients walk' is the claimed — the 'halls' that's the ghosts' spot, the 'past' that's their era's mark. The 'mill gone' is the thinned — the 'glimmer' that's the left's size, the 'hospital stays' that's the survival's form. Elizabeth's is the governed — the 'City Hall' that's the use's now, the 'NRHP' that's the listing's mark.
The file keeps Elizabeth's: the healed first, the named daughter, the planned town, and the walking patients.
Elizabeth City Hall is the archive's Louisiana file — the company hospital that now runs the town.
