Sec. 468. Aid to destitute non-residents.

In cases in which a person who has not lived in the City for a
year is in the City, sick and destitute, or not in a condition to
provide for himself or herself, he or she may be aided from the
poor fund until recovery, or in a condition to provide for themselves.
But the Superintendent with the concurrence of the
Board may discontinue the aid at any time. If a person is in the
City sick and destitute, or if any female or children, unable to
provide for themselves, are in the City and likely to become
chargeable to the City, the Superintendent with the consent of
the Board may send such persons to their homes, and the expense
of so doing shall be paid out of the poor fund.
