TWENTY-SECOND  ANNUAL  REPORT 

OF  THE 

TRUSTEES  OF  THE  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL, 

AT     WORCESTER, 

1854. 


To  His  Excellency  the  Governor  and  the  Honorable  Council : — 

In  compliance  with  law  and  custom,  the  undersigned,  Trus- 
tees of  the  Massachusetts  State  Lunatic  Hospital  at  Worcester, 
present  their  Annual  Report  of  "  the  condition  of  the  hospital 
and  its  concerns." 

Under  ordinary  circumstances,  this  Report  might  well  be 
very  concise,  and  confined  to  a  summary  of  the  principal 
events  of  the  year.  But  in  the  actual  state  of  the  case;  in 
the  present  condition  of  the  question  concerning  the  provisions 
to  be  made  for  the  insane  of  the  Commonwealth ;  and  in 
the  prospect  of  legislative  action  upon  the  whole  subject, 
greater  diffuseness  may  be  allowed. 

In  setting  forth  the  condition  of  the  Hospital,  and  the 
remedies  for  its  defects,  it  will  be  necessary  to  examine  cer- 
tain principles  and  modes  of  treatment,  which,  though  familiar 
to  professional,  are  not  so  to  unprofessional  readers.  Argu- 
ments that  would  be  held  superfluous ;  considerations  that 
would  be  deemed  perfectly  trite  by  a  body  of  physicians,  may 
be  appropriately  addressed  to  those  whose  studies  and  occupa- 
tions have  not  familiarized  them  with  the  subject  of  insanity, 


6  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jan. 

but  who  may  be  called  upon  to  take  measures  for  the  cure  and 
care  of  the  insane  of  the  State. 

The  year  has  been  one  of  general  health  and  prosperity. 
No  epidemic  has  occasioned  unusual  mortality  in  the  Hospi- 
tal ;  no  fatal  accident  has  broken  the  usual  quiet  of  the  house- 
hold ;  no  manifest  abuse  of  trust  has  lowered  the  high  character 
of  the  body  of  officers  and  attendants. 

However  far  short  the  Institution  may  have  fallen  of  doing 
the  greatest  possible  good  with  its  means,  it  certainly  has  con- 
tinued to  carry  on,  with  marked  success,  the  work  of  Christian 
charity  allotted  to  it  by  the  State  ;  and  another  year  of  good 
deeds  may  be  added  to  its  history  of  beneficence.  That  his- 
tory has  been  glorious  in  the  best  sense  ;  and  Massachusetts 
may  reflect  upon  it  with  as  much  satisfaction  as  upon  any 
part  of  her  annals.  Had  she  erected  at  Worcester  a  Military 
Academy  and  an  Arsenal,  from  which  to  draw  men  and  weap- 
ons to  conquer  in  a  hundred  fields,  she  could  not  have  won 
such  precious  laurels  as  she  has  earned  within  these  walls. 

Since  the  opening  of  this  Hospital,  four  thousand  seven 
hundred  and  fifty-seven  insane  persons  have  been  received 
within  its  friendly  gates.  Of  these,  two  thousand  one  hundred 
and  seventy-two  have  gone  forth  again  clad  in  their  right 
minds,  or  have  partially  recovered.  Others,  secluded  from 
the  world,  (which  to  them  was  one  of  excitement  and  suffer- 
ing, while  to  it  they  were  a  terror  and  a  burden,)  here  pass 
their  days  peacefully,  and  receive  that  respectful  attention 
due  to  every  being  in  human  shape,  however  ruined  and  de- 
graded he  may  be  ;  and  those  to  whom  the  end  comes,  have 
their  eyes  gently  closed  in  death  by  friendly  hands.  Nor  have 
these  only  been  benefited ;  for  thousands  upon  thousands  of 
relatives  and  friends  have  been  relieved  from  dreadful  anxiety, 
by  the  State  thus  taking  charge  of  those  beloved  ones  for  whom 
they  could  do  nothing. 

Nor  yet  have  benefits  and  blessings  been  conferred  upon 
these  the  receivers  only,  but  the  giver  too  has  been  doubly 
blessed;  and  Massachusetts  has  been  made  richer  in  the  heart's 
treasures  for  every  year  in  which,  from  its  high  pulpit  at 
Worcester,  the  Hospital  has  preached  to  all  the  people  its 
daily  sermon  of  Christian  love  and  charity. 

The  Trustees  have  great  pleasure  in  such  retrospect ;   and 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  7 

they  heartily  ascribe  the  praise  for  that  portion  of  the  good 
work  which  has  been  accomplished  during  the  past  year,  to 
the  Superintendent,  his  assistants,  and  the  faithful  men  and 
women  in  attendance,  by  whose  immediate  agency  it  has  been 
effected. 

It  is  easy  and  pleasant  to  render  merited  praise.  It  is  agree- 
able to  indulge  in  complacent  retrospect  of  past  efforts  and 
acknowledged  excellence.  But  it  is  a  duty  to  be  mindful  of 
faults  and  shortcomings.  It  must  not  be  admitted  that  any 
thing  which  has  been  done  in  the  past,  or  any  success  which 
has  been  obtained,  can  warrant  a  moment's  pause  in  that  long 
career  of  improvement  which  is  clearly  open  before  this  Hos- 
pital. That  career,  indeed,  must  be  pursued  with  unwonted  zeal 
and  energy,  if  the  character  which  its  friends  once  claimed  for 
it,  of  being  a  model  institution,  can  be  regained  and  deserved. 

This  Hospital  was  once  indeed  a  model  one,  in  form  and 
in  administration ;  and  Commissioners  came  up  hither  from 
other  States  to  study  it,  and  went  home  to  copy  it.  Our  State 
felt  a  reasonable  pride  in  the  Institution,  and  in  that  remarka- 
ble and  eminent  man  who  so  long  ministered  it;  and  she  in- 
dulged in  not  a  little  self-gratulation  from  year  to  year.  It 
seemed  to  be  thought  that,  as  we  had  begun  with  the  coun- 
try's highest  achievement,  we  had  also  arrived  at  the  ulti- 
matum of  the  world's  possible  progress.  But  while  indulging 
in  these  pleasant  remembrances  of  the  past,  and  resting  on  our 
laurels,  great  improvements  were  made  elsewhere;  other  hospi- 
tals were  built  on  better  models;  other  and  better  principles  of 
administration  were  adopted,  until  now  we  find  ourselves  be- 
hind the  rest  of  the  world  in  respect  to  the  facilities  and  the 
means  which  we  give  to  those  who  have  the  care  of  our  insane. 

It  is  well  known  that  during  the  last  quarter  of  a  century, 
and  especially  during  the  last  ten  years,  close  observation  and 
study  of  the  phenomena  of  insanity,  in  Europe  and  in  this 
country,  have  thrown  fresh  light  upon  its  pathology,  and  caused 
this  light  to  be  so  widely  diffused  that  changes  and  im- 
provements, amounting  to  revolutions,  in  the  mode  of  treat- 
ing the  insane,  have  been  demanded  and  obtained.  These 
changes  and  improvements  have  been,  as  it  were,  of  a  moral 
nature ;  merely  causing  the  substitution  of  moral  for  mate- 
rial agencies,  in    the   administration   of  hospitals ;    yet  they 


8  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jan. 

required  improved  buildings,  grounds,  and  material  appliances 
of  various  kinds. 

The  improvements  in  the  art  of  manufacturing  cotton  cloth 
have  been  so  great  within  a  quarter  of  a  century,  that  a  factory 
which  possessed  only  the  machinery  provided  for  it  twenty-five 
years  ago,  could  not  be  run  successfully  in  competition  with  new 
ones.  No  ability  or  resource  of  its  directors,  no  skill  or  zeal 
of  its  agent,  no  fidelity  or  industry  of  its  workmen,  could  ena- 
ble it  to  do  as  much  or  as  good  work  as  its  more  modern  com- 
petitors. Now,  a  hospital  for  the  insane  is  an  establish- 
ment for  repairing  health  of  body,  and,  through  this,  health 
of  mind.  It  is  a  place  for  repairing  disordered  men.  It  should 
possess  the  best  machinery,  and  the  best  of  officers  to  work  it. 
The  principal  part  of  the  machinery  is  the  building,  and  its 
importance  is  immense.  It  should  not  merely  serve  to  house  the 
patients  and  protect  them  from  the  weather ;  but  it  should  afford 
the  greatest  possible  facility  for  applying  the  best  mode  of 
treatment,  by  its  situation,  its  construction,  its  conveniences,  its 
furniture,  and  its  various  means  of  occupation  and  amusement 
within  ;  and  by  its  gardens,  its  grounds,  and  its  contrivances 
and  allurements  to  exercise  and  labor  without.  Lacking  these 
advantages,  no  ability  or  resources'of  its  trustees  ;  no  skill  or 
zeal  of  its  superintendent;  no  fidelity  or  industry  of  its  attend- 
ants, can  ever  enable  it  do  so  much  or  so  perfect  works  of  cure 
as  other  institutions  that  possess  them. 

But  when,  besides  the  lack  of  these  advantages,  a  hospital 
is  overcrowded  with  patients;  when  it  is  obliged  to  huddle 
together  over  five  hundred  and  fifty  persons  in  apartments 
constructed  for  only  three  hundred  and  twenty-seven,  and  con- 
structed, too,  when  less  space  was  thought  to  be  requisite  than 
is  now  found  to  be  essential ;  when,  moreover,  the  patients, 
instead  of  being  partly  drawn  according  to  the  original  purpose 
from  an  intelligent  and  educated  yeomanry,  are  drawn  mainly 
from  a  class  which  has  no  refinement,  no  culture,  and  not 
much  civilization  even — that  hospital  must  certainly  degenerate. 
Its  degeneracy  will  be  the  more  certain  and  the  more  striking  if 
a  short-sighted  economy  tempts  its  managers  to  adopt  the 
readiest,  instead  of  the  wisest,  methods  of  treatment,  and  to 
choose  the  cheapest,  instead  of  the  best  system  of  adminis- 
tration. 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  9 

The  patients,  crowded  close  together,  excite  and  exasperate 
each  other,  and  confusion  becomes  worse  confounded.  The 
crowd  must  be  brought  to  some  kind  of  order ;  and  the  temp- 
tation is  very  strong  to  resort  to  the  old  and  easy  way  of  doing 
it, — to  wit,  by  main  force, — by  physical  restraint  and  seclusion. 
Hence,  while  in  some  other  hospitals  the  managers  are  taking 
down  gratings,  removing  iron  doors,  breaking  restraint  chains, 
tearing  up  strait-waistcoats,  disusing  camisoles  and  straps, 
in  a  word,  diminishing  to  nearly  nothing  the  use  of  physical 
restraint  and  of  seclusion,  and  substituting  therefor  increased 
supervision,  and  a  variety  of  moral  means,  in  that  one  they  are 
building  up  new  cells,  and  relying  upon  mechanical  contri- 
vances for  restraining  the  patients.  Now,  however  high  among 
kindred  institutions  that  hospital  may  have  ranked,  however 
excellent  it  may  have  been  considered  at  home,  it  must  be 
ranked  low  by  competent  and  impartial  judges. 

Such,  in  the  opinion  of  the  undersigned,  by  the  effect  of 
simple  causes,  and  without  manifest  fault  on  the  part  of  any 
one,  is  the  case  with  the  Hospital  at  Worcester;  and,  such 
being  their  opinion,  they  cannot  honestly  make  a  report  touch- 
ing the  condition  of  the  institution  and  its  concerns  without 
making  it  known. 

The  Trustees  may  as  well  remark  here,  that,  holding  these 
opinions,  they  should  probably  have  exercised  the  power  in- 
trusted to  them,  and  made  important  changes,  both  in  the 
structural  arrangement  of  the  premises,  and  in  the  mode  of 
administration,  had  it  not  been  for  several  considerations,  some 
of  which  it  may  not  be  inappropriate  to  mention  here. 

One  consideration  is,  the  conservative  character  wisely  given 
by  the  State  to  the  Board  of  Trustees,  in  the  manner  of  its  ap- 
pointment. This  necessarily  makes  it  slow  and  cautious  about 
adopting  any  changes  of  policy.  Now,  the  policy  of  delegation 
of  power  to  other  hands,  and  of  non-interference  with  the 
immediate  management  of  the  Hospital,  had  been  the  settled 
policy  of  this  Board  long  before  any  of  the  undersigned  be- 
came members  of  it. 

Another   consideration  is,  the  hope  entertained  by  all  the 

present  members  of  the  Board  that  the  Legislature  would  take 

early  measures  for  selling  the  lands  belonging  to  the  Hospital, 

and  erecting  new  and  suitable  buildings  upon  a  site  more  ap- 

2 


10  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jan, 

propriate  and  advantageous  for  the  establishment,  though  of 
far  less  marketable  value.  This  hope  was  the  result  of  a  belief 
that  such  a  measure  was  called  for  by  the  best  interests  of  the 
State. 

With  these  remarks,  the  Trustees  proceed  to  consider,  first, 
the 

NUMBER    AND    CLASSIFICATION    OF    PATIENTS. 

The  number  of  patients  in  the  Hospital  at  the  beginning  of 
the  year  was  five  hundred  and  twenty. 

The  number  admitted  during  the  year  was  two  hundred  and 
ninety-nine.  The  whole  number  discharged  was  four  hundred 
and  twenty-one,  of  whom  two  hundred  and  ten  were  trans- 
ferred  to  the  new  Hospital  at  Taunton. 

The  average  number  of  patients  during  the  year,  and  during 
many  years,  has  been  enormous.  It  far  exceeds  that  for 
which  the  Hospital  has  accommodations.  It  constitutes  a 
crowd.  It  embarrasses  the  administration.  It  lowers  the 
standard  of  health.  It  diminishes  the  comfort  and  increases 
the  excitement  of  patients,  and  the  perplexities  of  attend- 
ants. It  makes  the  whole  household  uneasy.  It  leads  to, 
and  perhaps  justifies,  the  resort  to  objectionable  methods  of 
government,  and  to  restraints  which  are  injurious.  It  is  a 
prolific  source  of  other  evils  too  numerous  to  mention.  It 
ought  to  be  diminished,  and  kept  down. 

Of  the  two  hundred  and  ninety-nine  patients  admitted 
during  the  year,  one  hundred  and  sixteen  were  foreigners,  of 
whom  ninety-four  were  Irish,  and  all  paupers. 

The  Trustees  would  not  mention  this  fact,  in  the  present 
state  of  the  times,  or  they  would  mention  it  only  to  commend 
the  laudable  readiness  of  Massachusetts  to  care  for  the 
strangers  within  her  gates,  were  "it  not  an  important  one  in 
view  of  the  classification  of  patients,  which  they  think  it' 
essential  for  every  hospital  to  have  the  means  of  making,  but 
which  ours  has  not.  It  has  been  stated  to  the  Legislature  be- 
fore, and  it  should  be  repeated,  that  the  Hospital  at  Worcester 
is  fast  becoming  a  Hospital  for  foreigners,  and  that  its  doors 
are  becoming  practically  closed  against  that  class  of.  persons 
who  for  many  years  enjoyed  its  advantages ;  to  wit,  the  mid- 
dling class  of  native  population, — the  intelligent  yeomanry  of 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  11 

Massachusetts,  who  can  afford  to  pay  the  cost  of  their  board, 
and  will  not  ask  for  charity.  The  proportion  of  Irish  patients 
to  the  whole  number  was  ten  per  cent,  in  1844;  but  over 
thirty-one  per  cent,  in  1854. 

The  State  should  adopt  as  her  children  all  who  congre- 
gate upon  her  shores.  She  should  make  abundant  provi- 
sion for  all,  of  whatever  nation,  kindred,  tongue,  or  color, 
who,  having  found  a  home  within  her  borders,  do  there  become 
insane ;  but  that  provision,  while  as  favorable  as  possible 
to  their  cure,  should  be  suitable  to  their  condition,  their 
wants,  and  their  capacity  for  enjoyment.  It  should  be  made, 
too,  in  such  manner  as  not  to  cut  oft'  any  class  of  her  own 
children,  who  become  insane,  from  sharing  her  maternal  care 
and  bounty. 

It  is  important  and  pertinent  to  the  present  subject,  to  bear 
in  mind,  that  insanity  does  not  change  the  nature  of  men  and 
women  ;  that  it  does  not  always  blunt  their  sensibilities,  or 
lessen  their  prejudices,  but  that,  on  the  contrary,  it  often  inten- 
sifies them.  Among  the  insane  of  this  State  are  wives  and 
daughters,  widows  and  orphans,  of  farmers,  mechanics,  minis- 
ters, schoolmasters,  and  the  like.  These  women  were  taught 
in  our  public  schools,  trained  up  in  our  proverbially  neat  and 
orderly  households,  and  accustomed  to  cultivated  society  ;  and, 
however  ready  and  willing  they  might  have  been,  when  sane, 
to  help  the  poor,  and  elevate  the  humble,  of  whatever  race  or 
color,  they  would  have  shrunk  most  sensitively  from  living 
next  door  even  to  a  wretched  hovel,  and  from  intimate  associa- 
tion with  those  who  are  accustomed  to,  and  satisfied  with 
filthy  habitations  and  filthier  habits.  Now,  they  do  not  lose 
their  sensibilities  by  becoming  insane,  and  they  ought  not  to 
have  them  wounded  by  being  herded  together  in  the  same 
apartment  with  persons  whose  language,  whose  habits,  and 
whose  manners,  offend  and  shock  them.  Besides,  such  asso- 
ciations do  not  promote  the  good  of  any  patient,  but  may 
retard,  and  perhaps  prevent,  the  cure  of  some. 

There  is  yet  another  class,  who  have,  hitherto,  been  mingled 
indiscriminately  with  the  inmates  of  our  hospitals,  but  for  some 
at  least  of  whom,  the  undersigned  think  that  express  and  sep- 
arate provision  should  be  made,  either  within  or  without  the 
common  edifice ;  to  wit,  criminal  lunatics — those  who  have 


12  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jan. 

committed  grave  offences,  but  have  been  exempted  from  pun- 
ishment by  the  courts  on  the  ground  of  supposed  insanity  ; 
and  those  who,  becoming  insane  while  undergoing  sentence, 
are  transferred  from  the  prisons  to  the  hospitals. 

The  presence  of  any  of  this  class  is  an  evil;  and  if  the  num- 
ber should  be  much  increased,  it  would  be  a  very  grave  one. 
The  hospital  is  a  place  of  refuge  for  the  unfortunate.  To  make 
it  a  place  of  imprisonment  for  criminals,  is  to  throw  painful 
associations  about  it.  Nor  is  the  objection  merely  a  moral 
one.  The  presence  of  criminals,  who  are  often  desperate  men, 
creates  the  necessity  for  greater  means  of  restraint  and  security 
than  would  be  required  with  ordinary  patients,  and  it  converts 
some  part  at  least  of  the  hospital  into  a  prison.  The 
criminal  should  be  treated  with  care  and  kindness,  but  not  at 
the  expense  of  the  well  being,  or  the  feelings  of  the  innocent 
insane,  or  their  families. 

Now,  the  presence  of  these  two  classes,  in  such  large  and 
increasing  numbers,  lowers  the  State  hospitals  in  public 
estimation  ;  and  the  consequence  is  already,  that  they  are  less 
used  by  those  who,  though  they  cannot  well  afford  to  pay  a 
high  price,  will  seek  the  best  accommodations  for  their  insane 
friends.  Hence  it  is,  that  there  begins  to  be  a  call  for  private 
hospitals  and  asylums. 

The  multiplication  of  these  private  establishments  would  be 
a  great  evil.  It  is  one  that  may  be  prevented  by  making  pub- 
lic hospitals  unobjectionable  residences  for  patients  of  any  class; 
but  it  will  be  difficult  of  cure,  if  once  it  obtains  footing. 

If  private  hospitals  should  be  multiplied  in  this  State,  they 
will  be  established  with  a  view  of  gain.  They  may  become 
valuable  property.  It  may  be  impossible  to  suppress  them  by 
legal  means,  and  it  will  be  very  difficult  to  bring  them  under 
such  legal  supervision  as  will  prevent  abuses. 

The  history  of  civilized  nations  shows  that  the  multiplica- 
tion of  private  hospitals  and  asylums  for  the  insane  will  cer- 
tainly ensue  unless  public  hospitals  are  of  the  best  kind,  and 
present  opportunities  for  what  the  people  deem  proper  classifi- 
cation of  patients  ;  and  it  shows,  too,  that  such  establishments 
almost  necessarily  become  serious  evils.  In  Great  Britain,  so 
many  of  them  had  become  places  of  abomination,  that  the 
government  had  to  grapple  with  the  evil,  and  has  lessened  and 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  I.  13 

limited  it  only  by  clothing  the  Lord  Chancellor  and  the  Com- 
missioners in  Lunacy  with  inquisitorial  and  executive  powers, 
which,  however  necessary  for  the  protection  of  the  lunatic, 
would  hardly  be  tolerated  in  this  country. 

It  behooves  the  legislature  to  attend  to  this  matter  in  sea- 
son, as  well  to  give  to  the  public  Hospitals  more  means  of 
proper  classification  of  patients,  as  to  prevent  trouble  in 
future. 

HEALTH MORTALITY CURES. 

The  number  of  deaths,  and  the  number  discharged  as  cured 
or  otherwise,  and  similar  returns,  for  the  past  as  well  as  for 
previous  years,  will  be  found  stated  in  the  Report  of  the  Su- 
perintendent. Such  facts  are  of  value  in  a  statistical  point 
of  view,  when  drawn  from  a  long  period  of  time,  and  from  a 
large  number  of  patients,  and  with  a  full  understanding  of  all 
the  circumstances  which  may  have  an  influence  upon  them. 
But  as  these  circumstances  can  scarcely  be  alike  in  different 
hospitals,  comparisons  between  them  must  be  made  with 
great  caution,  else  they  lead  to  error.  As  a  picture  of  the 
Hospital  edifice  is  more  or  less  pleasing  according  as  it  is 
taken  from  one  or  another  point  of  view,  so  an  account  of  its 
sanatory  condition  will  be  more  or  less  favorable  according  as 
it  may  be  taken  from  one  or  another  statistical  view.  It  is 
natural,  in  both  cases,  to  choose  the  most  favorable  stand  point* 

The  number  of  deaths  during  the  last  year  was  thirty-four. 
This,  compared  with  the  average  number  of  patients  during 
the  year,  gives  a  mortality  which,  compared  with  that  of  the 
whole  population  of  Massachusetts,  is  very  great,  for  that  is 
only  1.89  hundreths  per  cent.  Compared  with  the  average 
mortality  in  the  State  Prison,  it  is  prodigious,  for  that  is  only 
three-fourths  of  one  per  cent. 

It  by  no  means  follows  from  this,  however,  that  the  diet  and 
mode  of  life  in  the  Hospital  are  less  salubrious  than  in  the 
prison.  The  prisoners  are  mostly  men  of  vigorous  organiza- 
tion, and  at  a  period  of  life  during  which  mortality  is  least 
In  most  of  our  patients,  the  original  stock  of  vitality  was  prob- 
ably small ;  in  almost  all  it  was  sadly  impaired  before  their 
admission.  Many  brought  here  a  poor  nickering  flame  of  life, 
which  would  have  soon  been  extinguished  in  the  gusty  world

without,  but  which  is  now  carefully  tended,  and  will  lick 
up  the  last  drop  of  the  oil  of  life  ere  it  dies  in  the  socket. 
It  is  morally  certain,  however,  that  the  vital  energy  of  the 
patients  must  have  been  lessened,  and  the  mortality  among 
them  increased,  by  living  so  much  of  the  time,  and  in  so  great 
numbers,  in  the  badly  ventilated  and  poorly  lighted  wards  and 
chambers  of  this  Hospital.  The  state  of  the  air  has  been  a 
subject  of  complaint  for  years.  The  impression  made  upon 
visitors  during  an  hour's  visit  has  been  disagreeable  and  hurt- 
ful ;  what  it  must  have  been  upon  the  patients  is  manifest  in 
their  appearance. 

The  Trustees  are  happy  to  be  able  to  state  that  the  arrange- 
ments just  finished  in  some  of  the  wards,  under  the  direction  of 
Mr.  Jonathan  Preston,  have  proved  of  great  benefit.  They 
remedy  the  evils  so  long  complained  of  as  much  as  the  struc- 
ture of  the  building  admits. 

There  have  been  no  deaths  by  accident,  and  but  one  by  sui- 
cide, during  the  year.  Considering  the  number  of  patients  and 
the  fewness  of  attendants,  this  speaks  well  for  the  watchful- 
ness of  the  latter. 

GENERAL    CONDITION    AND    TREATMENT    OF    PATIENTS. 

In  the  numerous  visits  which  the  Trustees  have  made,  either 
as  a  Board,  or  individually, — visits  often  made  without  previous 
notice,  and  sometimes  by  night,  they  have  found  evidence 
enough  to  satisfy  them  that  the  Hospital  has  been  kept  ha- 
bitually as  clean  and  tidy  as  circumstances  would  admit ;  and 
that  the  inmates  were  well  fed,  comfortably  lodged,  and  kindly 
treated.  They  have  listened  to  complaints  of  patients,  but 
found  they  were  all  of  such  stuff  as  dreams  are  made  of.  In 
no  instance  have  friends  of  patients  expressed  to  the  Trustees 
any  dissatisfaction. 

Now,  when  it  is  considered  how  completely  dependent  are 
the  patients  upon  those  who  have  them  in  charge  for  comfort, 
for  health,  and  even  for  life  itself; — how  liable  they  are  to 
injury  by  one  another,  by  fire,  by  accidents  of  various  kinds; 
when  it  is  considered  that  the  attendants  may  neglect  and 
even  maltreat  them  with  possible  impunity,  and  moreover  how 
liable  is  the  possession  of  great  power  to  great  abuses,  there 
certainly  is  reason  for  congratulation  that  in  our  Hospital,  over- 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  15 

crowded  with  patients  as  it  has  been,  no  untoward  event  has 
disturbed  the  peaceful  current  of  the  year.  This  is,  in  a  great 
degree,  attributable  to  the  influence  of  the  Superintendent,  who, 
eminently  conscientious,  vigilant,  and  industrious  himself,  has 
drawn  about  him  a  company  of  assistants  who  emulate  his 
virtues. 

The  Trustees  think,  however,  that  in  several  important  mat- 
ters of  arrangement  and  of  administration  the  Hospital  needs, 
and  may  have,  great  improvement.  One  of  these  is  in  respect 
to  the 

RECREATION    AND    AMUSEMENTS    OF    THE    PATIENTS. 

Among  the  means  of  treating  the  insane,  those  which  help 
to  divert  their  thoughts  from  their  unnatural  channels,  and  to 
promote  cheerfulness  of  heart,  are  very  important.  Fore- 
most among  these  are,  of  course,  the  associates  and  attendants 
of  the  patients,  who  should  be  of  pleasant  temper  and  cheer- 
ful deportment.  But  these  living  agents  can  be  aided  greatly 
by  mechanical  arrangements  of  apartments  and  grounds,  by 
facilities  for  games  and  amusements,  and  the  like.  In  this 
respect  our  Hospital  is  sadly  deficient.  Most  of  the  wards  are 
ill  lighted,  and  the  sunbeams  never  enliven  them.  The  apart- 
ments are  of  tiresome  rectangularity.  There  are  no  sunny 
parlors,  no  cosy  nooks,  no  cheerful  bow  windows  opening  on 
green  lawns  ;  no  adornment  of  the  halls,  no  variety  of  pleasant 
sights  for  the  eye,  no  variety  of  pleasant  sounds  for  the  ear ; 
but,  on  the  contrary,  there  is  a  dull  monotony  in  the  structure 
of  the  rooms,  unbroken  by  diversity  of  furniture,  and  an  end- 
less extent — square  miles,  indeed,  of  walls  and  ceilings — white- 
washed, whitewashed  every  where,  till  the  eye,  wearied  with 
everlasting  white,  longs  even  for  a  stained  spot  to  rest  upon. 
All  this,  of  course,  helps  to  give  a  character  to  the  establish- 
ment, and  repels  attendants  of  cheerful  tempers,  who  love  to 
live  in  sunny  spots,  and  amid  pleasant  scenes,  or  it  dispirits 
them  after  they  come.  At  any  rate,  the  visitor  who  compares 
this  Hospital  with  some  others,  is  struck  by  the  grave  deport- 
ment, the  serious  countenances,  the  almost  melancholy  aspect 
of  attendants  and  patients.  He  misses  the  glad  countenance 
which  the  merry  heart  maketh.  There  is  a  leaden  gravity 
which   seems  to   defy  relaxation ;    and   a   gloomy  air  about 


16  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jan. 

the  establishment,  which  must  be  unfavorable  to  the  cure  of 
insane  patients. 

This  will  probably  be  amended,  at  least  as  far  as  structural 
arrangements  go,  by  letting  in  more  sunlight,  breaking  up  the 
monotony  of  the  wards,  providing  new  parlors,  and  more  fa- 
cilities for  amusement  and  occupations,  by  other  alterations 
which  the  Board  have  directed  to  be  made. 

EMPLOYMENT    OF    THE    PATIENTS. 

Another  very  important  instrumentality  in  the  treatment  of 
the  insane,  whether  as  regards  the  cure  of  their  malady  or 
the  melioration  of  their  condition,  is  the  means  of  controlling 
and  directing  their  minds,  through  the  employment  of  their 
hands,  and  the  general  occupation  of  their  time.  These  means 
should  be  varied,  in  view  of  the  organization,  the  previous  call- 
ing, and  the  present  condition  of  the  patient.  The  employ- 
ment should  be  of  such  nature,  and  such  degree  of  urgency, 
as  will  agreeably  occupy,  without  severely  taxing,  the  disor- 
dered faculties.  In  view  of  the  plurality  of  the  mental 
faculties,  the  occupation  should  be  varied  and  adapted  as 
much  as  possible  to  the  disordered  faculty,  or  rather  disordered 
combinations  of  them,  which,  however,  are  almost  endless. 

A  little  reflection  will  show  that  idleness,  so  pregnant  of 
evil  to  the  sane,  may  be  equally  dangerous  to  the  insane; 
and  that  the  best  remedy  for  a  disordered  current  of  thoughts 
and  feelings  is  their  diversion  into  other  channels  by  attractive 
occupation. 

In  great  trouble  and  in  mental  anguish,  men  seek  for  occu- 
pation of  body  and  of  mind,  lest  they  should  go  mad.;  and, 
when  they  have  gone  mad,  they  need  it  in  order  to  get  sane 
again.  Even  in  those  cases  where  excessive  occupation, 
where  anxiety,  or  where  over-mental  action  has  caused  insanity, 
it  is  not  total  inaction,  but  change  of  action,  that  is  required. 
Indeed,  the  mind  will  not  rest  in  recent  insanity.  It  is  only 
when  serious  changes  in  the  brain  lead  to  fatuity,  that  it  be- 
comes quite  quiet ;  and  this  condition  we  wish  to  prevent,  or 
at  least  postpone,  as  much  as  possible.  Hence  the  necessity  of 
ample  provision  in  every  hospital,  of  varied  material  and 
mechanical  appliances  and  contrivances,  to  aid  in  the  moral 
treatment  of  the  insane.  This  matter  does  not  seem  to  have  had 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  17 

sufficient  attention  in  the  organization,  or  in  the  administration 
of  this  establishment.  There  is  lack  of  variety  and  abundance 
of  means  of  recreation,  and  also  of  industrial  occupations. 

The  fact  that  hundreds  of  tolerably  strong  and  healthy  men 
and  women  are  most  comfortably  fed  and  lodged  in  one  house, 
at  public  charge,  and  yet  permitted  to  pass  months  and  years 
in  idleness  and  sloth,  would  shock  this  active  and  industrious 
community,  were  it  not  that  custom  has  made  it  familiar,  and 
seems  to  warrant  it. 

It  is  true  that  many  patients  do  recover  reason  under  this 
"let-alone"  treatment;  but  so  do  men  sick  with  the  same 
malady  recover  health  though  treated  by  doctors  of  different 
schools,  and  swallowing  drugs  of  opposite  character.  The 
reputation  of  doctor  and  of  drug  may  come  from  the  fact  that 
they  so  often  fail  to  defeat,  and  do  only  retard,  the  natural  pro- 
cesses which  bring  the  majority  of  diseases  to  a  safe  issue.  In 
order  to  learn  which  system  is  best,  we  must  compare  one 
with  another  working  under  circumstances  as  nearly  alike  as 
possible. 

It  is  easy  to  compare  our  Hospital  with  others  in  regard  to 
the  variety  of  occupation  provided  for  the  patients,  the  atten- 
tion paid  to  occupying  them  with  industrial  pursuits,  and  the 
amount  of  labor  they  perform.  In  all  these  matters  many  other 
hospitals  take  precedence  of  it.  In  the  British  hospitals  espe- 
cially, great  attention  is  given  to  the  occupation  of  the  patients  ; 
and  some  of  them  almost  deserve  the  name  of  industrial  estab- 
lishments. Some  asylums  in  Scotland,  and  some  district 
asylums  in  Ireland,  are  particularly  distinguished  in  this  respect. 

It  is  true  that  the  circumstances  are  not  the  same  in  the 
two  countries.  There  is  greater  development  of  individuality 
here ;  more  of  self-guidance,  and  more  of  voluntary  labor.  There 
is  less  disposition  to  submit  to  the  direction  of  others  ;  and,  as 
people  do  not  lose  their  ordinary  characteristics  in  their  insane 
state,  it  may  be  more  difficult  to  keep  lunatics  busily  employed 
in  this  country  than  it  is  in  Great  Britain.  But  one-third  of 
our  patients  are  Irish  ;  the  most  of  whom,  if  at  home,  and  in 
some  of  the  district  asylums,  would  surely  be  kept  at  work. 
With  regard  to  the  Americans,  they  are  quite  as  active  and 
industrious  as  any  people  ;  only  they  are  more  fond  of  con- 
sidering their  labor  to  be  voluntary  and  self-directed ;  and  it

18  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jan, 

would  seem  that  advantage  might  be  taken  of  their  general 
peculiarities,  so  that  they  would  be  induced  to  join  in  some 
industrial  occupation. 

Many,  if  not  most,  of  our  patients  are  regaled  daily  at  table 
with  what  would  have  been  rare,  and  perhaps  unknown  luxu- 
ries in  their  former  homes.  These  cannot  be  needful  for  their 
cure  ;  and  the  enjoyment  of  them  might  perhaps  be  made  con- 
ditional upon  their  doing  a  certain  amount  of  work.  Few 
lose  the  sensitiveness  of  the  "  pocket  nerve ;"  and  this,  if  not 
already  morbidly  active,  might  be  quickened  by  prospect  of 
immediate  gain.  It  certainly  would  be  better  for  the  Hospital 
and  for  the  State,  to  have  all  the  inmates  who  are  in  ordinary 
bodily  health  busily  engaged  in  light  work,  even  by  paying  for 
every  hour's  time,  than  to  have  hundreds  lounging  idly  about 
the  wards,  gradually  losing  the  tone  and  vigor  of  their  bodies? 
and  indifferent  to  every  thing  except  the  quantity  and  quality 
of  the  next  meal. 

Of  course  the  disinclination  to  steady  occupation  is  seldom 
to  be  regarded  as  laziness,  or  as  in  any  way  culpable,  but 
rather  as  one  of  the  results  of  insanity,  which  deranges  the 
distribution  of  the  nervous  energy,  and  sometimes  lessens  the 
amount  of  it.  But  though  punishment,  even  by  deprivation 
of  comfort,  may  not  be  just,  yet  inducements  to  regular 
employment,  in  shape  of  wages  or  of  little  luxuries,  may  be 
both  just  and  proper,  by  encouraging  regular  exercise  of  body 
and  voluntary  direction  of  the  mental  faculties,  which  become 
habitual,  and  therefore  pleasant  and  salutary. 

It  cannot  be  too  often  repeated  that  Nature,  pitched  out 
even  by  so  rude  a  fork  as  insanity,  constantly  tends  to  return  - 
and  her  plain  indications  may  be  often  relied  upon  by  the 
uninitiated,  though  they  contravene  doctrines  announced  as  axi- 
omatic by  the  "  professors."  All  agree  that  it  is  not  right  to 
thwart  directly  the  inclinations  of  the  insane,  or  to'  force 
them  to  action  when  disposed  to  inaction;  but  still  the  prin- 
ciple holds,  that  efforts  at  self-control  are  exercises  which  tend 
to  strengthen  the  enfeebled  mind,  and  that  patients  should  be 
encouraged  to  make  them. 

It  is  true  that,  generally,  we  have  rather  to  deal  with  deranged 
than  with  diminished  mental  energy,  in  cases  of  recent  insanity. 
There  is   undue,  involuntary,  perhaps   violent   action  of  cer- 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  19 

tain  faculties  which  disturbs  the  mental  balance,  and  oversets 
reason.  There  is  danger  that,  by  mere  force  of  habit,  this 
undue  action  may  become  permanent,  while  by  the  same 
cause  the  inaction  of  other  faculties  may  be  confirmed ;  and 
this  is  to  be  counteracted,  while  yet  manageable,  by  strength- 
ening the  weakened  faculties,  and  reestablishing  the  balance. 
Constant  and  urgent  inducement  to  action  may  therefore 
be  usefully  presented  to  the  mental  faculties  and  disposi- 
tions which  are  in  abeyance,  and  new  channels  opened  for 
the  thoughts  and  affections.  In  a  word,  deranged  habits  of 
mind  should  not  be  left  to  grow  worse  by  neglect;  the 
patient  should  not  be  abandoned  to  blind  chance,  but  roused  to 
effort,  and  encouraged  to  sane  mental  exercise  by  succession  of 
pleasant  objects,  and  by  agreeable  pursuits,  which  occupy  the 
mind  without  taxing  or  worrying  it. 

For  this  purpose,  places  of  recreation,  games,  workshops, 
gardens  and  the  like,  are  to  be  provided  in  abundance  and  in 
variety.  But  especially  should  there  be  opportunity  and  induce- 
ments to  engage  in  those  tranquil  and  salubrious  pursuits 
which  a  large  and  well-managed  farm  presents  in  greater 
variety  and  abundance  than  can  be  found  elsewhere. 

There  are  facts  in  abundance  to  show  that  these  things  are 
most  desirable  and  most  useful  in  the  cure  and  care  of  the 
insane. 

The  value  of  the  work  done  by  the  patients  in  the  Worcester 
Hospital  in  1853,  when  there  was  over  500  of  them,  was  only 
$2,000,  as  estimated  by  the  Superintendent.  Only  about  one 
in  five  there  does  a  moderate  day's  work.  In  summer  time 
about  one-quarter  of  the  patients  are  said  to  do  a  moderate 
day's  work  ;  in  winter  only  about  one-fifth.  The  Superintend- 
ent estimates  that  only  $300  a  year  is  saved  to  the  Hospital 
by  the  aid  which  the  men  render,  and  only  $700  by  that  of 
the  women. 

The  Reports  of  some  of  the  British  Hospitals  furnish  a 
striking  contrast  to  this.  In  them,  three-quarters  of  the  patients 
are  industriously  and  usefully  occupied.  Some  of  the  details 
of  their  industrial  pursuits  show  a  striking  contrast  with  ours, 
and  are,  moreover,  interesting  in  a  moral  point  of  view. 

The  Report  of  the  Wilts  County  Asylum  for  1852  says : — 
"  The  employment  of  the   patients  is  an   object  of  primary 


20  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jan. 

consideration.     A  large  proportion  of  the  men  are  engaged  in 
agricultural  pursuits." 

"  Under  the  active  and  judicious  superintendence  of  the 
matron,  an  increasing-  majority  of  the  female  patients  are  occu- 
pied in  the  domestic  labors  of  the  kitchen,  laundry  and  wards, 
and  in  needlework.  The  greater  part  of  the  bed  and  house 
linen  has  been,  and  is  in  process  of  being,  made  by  the  assist- 
ance of  a  single  seamstress." 

The  Report  for  1852  says :  "  The  original  outfit  of  clothing 
was  supplied  by  the  Asylum  for  the  North  and  East  Ridings 
of  Yorkshire,  an  institution  in  which  the  industrial  system  has 
been  developed  to  the  fullest  extent,  and  where  it  was  made 
entirely  by  the  patients.  This  is  probably  the  first  instance  of 
an  asylum  entering  into  a  contract  of  such  a  kind.  Great 
interest  was  excited  among  the  patients,  who  were  made  aware 
that  they  were  preparing  clothing  for  another  asylum  ;  and  quite 
a  sensation  was  manifested  when  two  carts,  laden  with  heavy 
bales  of  woollen  clothes  and  shoes,  shirts,  and  dresses  for  the 
women,  left  the  rooms  of  North  and  East  Ridings  Asylum." 

Again:  "during  the  year,  all  the  clothing  required  for  the  in- 
creasing number  of  inmates  has  been  made  by  the  patients. 
In  the  tailors'  and  shoemakers'  shops  much  work  has  been 
done,  the  amount  of  which  will  be  seen  in  the  tables  appended 
to  this  Report.  The  female  patients  continue  to  be  extensively 
engaged,  under  the  direction  of  the  matron,  in  the  various 
services  of  the  kitchen,  the  laundry,  and  the  wards,  and  a  large 
stock  of  clothing  and  bed  linen  has  been  made  by  them, 
assisted  only  by  their  ordinary  attendants  ;  it  not  having  been 
thought  necessary  to  fill  the  place  of  the  seamstress,  who  left 
her  situation  at  midsummer.  A  further  reduction  in  the  staff 
of  servants  of  the  establishment  has  been  effected  by  the  dis- 
continuance of  a  second  laundry-maid  ;  and,  after  some  months' 
trial,  the  success  of  this  plan  may  be  considered  as  proved." 
Now,  the  Wilts  County  Asylum  is  not  particularly  distin- 
guished for  industrial  activity  among  English  Hospitals.  If 
the  contract  were  made  with  some  others,  the  inactivity  which 
characterizes  ours  would  be  more  striking.  There  employment 
is  the  rule,  idleness  the  exception ;  here  it  is  the  contrary. 
There  activity  well  directed,  begets  salutary  industry;  here 
idleness  undisturbed,  becomes  enervating  sloth.     It  does  not 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  21 

appear  that  the  occupation  of  the  patient  retards  cure  ;  but,  on 
the  contrary,  the  evidence  of  its  good  effects,  in  a  salutary  and 
curative  point  of  view,  is  most  abundant  and  convincing. 

The  Trustees  think  that  the  Worcester  Hospital  may  be 
greatly  improved  by  more  ample  provision  of  means  of  indus- 
trial occupation  in  workshops  and  upon  the  farm,  and  that  the 
present  relief  from  the  crowd  (whose  pressure  has  acted  so  un- 
favorably to  all  improvement)  furnishes  a  good  opportunity  for 
introducing  a  better  system  of  internal  administration  with  this 
view.  The  Trustees  would  not  have  the  Hospital  converted 
into  a  workhouse.  They  would  not  enforce  labor,  or  require  it 
with  any  view  to  immediate  pecuniary  gain  ;  but  they  believe 
that  the  majority  of  the  patients  may  be  induced  to  do  a  con- 
siderable amount  of  useful  work,  and,  at  the  same  time,  pro- 
mote their  own  health  and  happiness. 


HABITS    OF    THE    PATIENTS. 

Following  after  this  evil  of  inactivity,  and  probably  aggra- 
vated by  it,  is  the  great  prevalence  of  morbid  appetites  and 
filthy  habits  among  the  patients.  This,  too,  is  a  matter  re- 
specting which  it  is  difficult  to  make  comparisons  with  other 
hospitals ;  but  from  all  that  can  be  learned  by  the  Trustees,  the 
proportion  of  what  may  be  called  morbidly  filthy  cases  is 
uncommonly  great  in  the  Hospital  at  Worcester.  Before  the 
exodus  to  Taunton,  nearly  half  the  whole  number  were  of 
this  description,  and  the  proportion  is  fearfully  great  even  now. 
This  is  a  delicate  matter  to  touch  upon  in  a  public  report ; 
nevertheless,  it  is  an  important  one.  It  regards  the  comfort 
and  well  being  of  the  patients  ;  it  is  an  indication  of  the  hy- 
gienic condition  of  the  household,  and  of  the  degree  of  medical 
care  bestowed  upon  it ;  and  to  avoid  mention  of  it  on  proper 
occasion  would  be  squeamishness. 

By  filthy  patients  is  meant  those  who,  if  not  watched  and 
prevented,  will  besmear  their  persons  with,  and  even  swallow, 
substances  the  most  disgusting  to  the  natural  taste. 

Now,  all  morbid  appetites  and  unnatural  habits  are  conse- 
quent upon,  or  certainly  connected  with,  some  derangement  of 
the  bodily  functions ;  and  though  the  derangement  may  be  of 
special  or  minute  parts  of   the  nervous  system,  or  even  of 


22  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jan. 

intangible,  and  as  yet  obscure  magnetic  agencies,  si  ill,  beyond 
a  peradventure,  it  must  be  increased  or  diminished  by  the 
varying  conditions  of  the  great  organs  whose  functions  seem 
to  be  more  under  our  cognizance  and  control.  A  lunatic  may 
tell  a  hawk  from  a  handsaw  after  supping  on  dry  toast,  but  be 
perplexed  by  their  resemblance  after  minced  pie.  A  suicidal 
patient  may  be  content  to  live  through  the  night  if  he  has 
eaten  the  one,  but  be  looking  after  razors  and  ropes  if  he  has 
swallowed  the  other.  In  the  same  manner,  the  distortion  of 
tastes,  which  makes  things  seem  comely  and  desirable  that 
are  usually  offensive  and  repulsive ;  the  inversion  of  natural 
tendencies  which  makes  filth  pleasanter  than  cleanliness ;  and 
the  perversion  of  appetite  that  renders  substances  palatable 
which  are  usually  disgusting — these  must  be  more  or  less 
salient,  according  to  the  condition  of  the  bodily  health  of  the 
sufferer.  In  all  these  matters  there  is  great  room  for  improve- 
ment ;  and  the  relief  given  by  the  reduction  of  the  number  of 
patients,  by  improved  ventilation,  and  by  the  greater  amount 
of  medical  and  moral  care  which  can  be  given  by  the  Super- 
intendent to  each  case,  will  probably  bring  it  about.  This 
naturally  leads  to  notice  of  the 

DUTIES  AND  CARES  OF  THE  SUPERINTENDENT. 

It  seems  to  the  Trustees  that  too  much  labor  and  responsi- 
bility, aside  from  his  medical  duties,  have  devolved  upon  the 
Superintendent  of  this  Hospital.  Eight  hours  a  day  of  such 
close  study  as  a  careful  physician  ought  to  bestow  upon  the 
malady  of  his  patients,  is  surely  as  much  as  a  man  of  ordinary 
powers  can  bear,  and  wear  well.  But  eight  hours  divided  among 
the  patients  of  this  Hospital,  when  it  is  crowded,  would  give 
but  about  three-quarters  of  a  minute  to  each,  supposing  not  a 
second  to  be  lost  in  passing  from  one  to  the  other  ;  and  it  would 
give  only  about  a  minute  and  a  quarter  to  the  present  number. 
But,  in  reality,  with  all  possible  diligence,  not  one  minute 
could  be  given  to  each  case. 

It  is  commonly  thought,  that  since  most  of  the  patients  in  a 
public  hospital  are  chronically  insane,  and  since  their  condition 
does  not  vary  from  day  to  day,  all  that  the  physician  has  to  do 
is,  to  assure  himself  of  their  presence  and  safety  by  a  glance  at 


1955.]  SENATE— No.  1.  23 

them  as  he  walks  through  the  wards.  But  every  day  effects 
changes,  more  or  less  considerable,  rin  every  organized  body 
and  there  are  exceptional  cases  in  which,  by  some  extraordi- 
nary revolution  in  the  system,  reason  is  restored  in  the  most 
unexpected  manner.  These  changes  may  come  at  any  time  ; 
and  they  should  be  watched  for,  in  order  that  the  curative 
tendency  may  be  favored.  It  should  be  assumed  that  they 
may  happen  to  each  and  every  patient,  however  old  and 
desperate  his  malady.  As  the  anxious  parent  clings  to  hope 
so  long  as  there  is  a  spark  of  life  in  a  child's  body,  so  the 
physician  of  a  hospital  for  the  insane  should  hold  that  there 
is  a  hope,  because  a  possibility,  of  each  patient's  restoration 
to  reason.  He  should  bear  in  mind  that  each  one  is  some- 
body's beloved  child,  or  parent,  or  relation  ;  or,  if  not,  then 
that  he  is  doubly  unfortunate,  and  should,  therefore,  be  doubly 
interesting  to  him. 

Besides,  there  are  many  patients  who  will  not  speak  of  any 
pain  or  suffering  which  they  may  be  undergoing ;  and  some 
who  cunningly  conceal  it.  Certainly,  therefore,  the  physician 
should  make  frequent  personal  observation  of  each,  and  es- 
pecially of  those  cases  where  the  patients  are  too  much 
demented  to  seek  relief  of  their  own  accord,  even  when  suffer- 
ing ever  so  much.  But  if  we  allow  that  five  minutes  should 
be  given  to  each  case,  the  physician  would  have  to  labor  ten 
hours  daily  in  order  to  attend  to  each  patient  three  times  a 
week.  It  is  true,  he  has  his  assistants ;  but  his  ablest  and 
most  trusty  assistants  are  his  own  senses,  and  upon  them  he 
must  mainly  rely. 

Such  calculations  of  the  division  of  time  cannot,  indeed, 
be  very  accurate  or  valuable;  for  some  physicians  have  a  natu- 
ral quickness  of  perception,  so  sharpened  through  practice,  that 
a  patient's  condition  is  seen  at  a  glance,  as  by  a  flash  of  rev- 
elation. They  have  the  intuition  of  genius.  But  surely,  after 
making  every  allowance,  it  must  be  admitted  that  the  proper 
medical  care  of  the  individual  patients, — the  regulation  of  their 
diet  and  regimen, — the  contrivance  of  their  amusements  and 
occupations,  and  the  general  oversight  of  the  moral  condition 
of  the  great  household — these  things  are  enough  to  occupy 
fully  and  worthily  the  time  and  the  energies  of  one  man. 

But,  besides  these  duties,  many  others  are  imposed  upon  the 


24  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jan. 

Superintendent  by  the  statutes,  or  have  devolved  upon  him  by 
the  common  law  of  custom.  He  has  to  carry  on  the  extensive 
correspondence  of  the  Hospital ;  and  much  of  this  he  cannot 
do  by  deputy.  He", virtually  appoints,  and  is  responsible  for, 
the  Assistant  Physicians,  Steward  and  Matron.  He  directly 
appoints,  and  is  responsible  for,  the  Clerk,  Apothecary,  Super- 
visors of  Departments,  Overseers  of  the  Wings,  Overseers  of  the 
Laundry,  Bakery  and  Workhouse,  Watchman,  Farmer,  and  all 
necessary  Attendants  in  the  galleries,  laundry,  bakery,  kitchen, 
workshops,  and  on  the  farm.  He  must  "  see,  constantly,  that 
all  persons  thus  appointed  by  him,  and  also  all  subordinate 
officers  appointed  by  the  Board,  perform,  faithfully,  the  duties 
required  of  them ;  and  from  time  to  time  he  shall  give  them 
such  instructions  as  he  may  deem  necessary  to  secure  the 
exact  and  thorough  performance  of  their  respective  duties." 

But,  besides  all  this,  the  physician  is,  virtually,  head  of  the 
Steward's  Department,  and  does  a  great  deal  of  duty  in  other 
departments  which  require  much  thought,  and  of  course,  divert 
much  of  his  power  from  his  more  legitimate  field  of  action. 

Now,  much  of  this  labor  and  responsibility  ought  to  be,  and 
may  be,  spared  to  the  Superintendent,  and  still  a  great  deal 
will  remain.  The  "  one-man  power  "  must  be  maintained  in 
such  an  establishment.  The  Superintendent  must  be  the  real 
head  of  the  household,  and  have  patriarchal  power ;  hence  the 
obvious  necessity  of  so  restricting  the  number  of  patients  that 
he  can  have  daily  and  intimate  knowledge  of  their  individual 
condition,  and  time  and  strength  left  to  make  all  the  necessary 
provisions  for  their  safety,  comfort  and  cure.  To  gather  into 
this  Hospital,  therefore,  more  than  twice  as  many  patients  as 
can  be  thus  carefully,  properly  and  faithfully  treated,  is  justifi- 
able on  no  ground  but  that  of  stern  necessity,  which  the  State 
cannot  plead.  To  gather  into  it  any  more  is  unwise.  It  is 
not  even  justifiable  on  the  ground  of  economy ;  for  in  this  mat- 
ter of  care  and  cure  of  the  insane,  as  in  other  matters,  the  best 
way  is  the  cheapest.  It  is  the  way  that  the  men  of  Massa- 
chusetts manage  their  individual  business.  In  their  banks, 
manufactories,  and  workshops,  they  do  not  burden  their  cash- 
iers, agents  and  overseers,  with  such  a  load  of  business  that 
some  part  of  it  must  be  slighted,  some  neglected,  and  all  of  it 
done  hurriedly ;  and  they  should  not  so  burden  the   Superin- 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  25 

tendents  of  their  Hospitals.  To  attend  to  two  hundred  patients 
faithfully  and  efficiently  is  good  work  for  a  good  man ;  to 
attend  to  two  hundred  and  fifty  will  tax  the  energies  of  the 
best  one  to  the  uttermost.  More  than  this  one  man  cannot  do, 
and  do  well ;  and  let  not  Massachusetts  require  him  to  make 
the  vain  attempt. 

MECHANICAL    RESTRAINT    AND    SECLUSION    OF    PATIENTS. 

The  sight  of  scores  of  men  and  women  confined  in  cells, 
dignified  by  the  name  of  strong  rooms,  or  restrained  in  the  use 
of  their  limbs  by  mechanical  contrivances,  has  long  constituted 
the  most  melancholy  feature  of  this  Hospital.  In  the  mind  of 
the  visitor  who  doubted  the  necessity  of  this  rude  method  of 
treatment,  and  who  suspected  that  its  adoption  was  the  result 
of  a  parsimonious  selection  of  the  cheapest  rather  than  the 
best  method,  the  melancholy  was  not  unmingled  with  sterner 
feeling. 

There  is  about  the  insane  a  helpless  dependence  that  is 
more  touching  even  than  that  of  woman  ;  so  that  the  unneces- 
sary abridgment  of  their  personal  freedom,  or  the  needless 
diminution  of  their  remaining  means  of  enjoyment,  is  a  wrong 
which,  if  done  with  intent,  or  through  unworthy  motives 
should  meet  with  indignant  reprobation.  It  has  been  done  in 
this  Hospital  partly  through  a  supposed  necessity,  and  partly 
in  consequence  of  the  crowd  of  patients  forced  into  it.  It  is 
still  done  in  other  public  institutions  where  the  insane  are  con- 
fined, and  the  matter  therefore,  should,  in  every  possible  way, 
be  brought  before  the  public ;  and  appeals  should  be  made  to 
the  intellect  and  the  conscience  of  the  people,  until  the  wrong 
ceases. 

The  assertion,  that  public  opinion  in  New  England  is  less 
enlightened  than  that  of  Old  England  with  regard  to  the 
treatment  of  the  insane,  may  seem  strange,  but  nevertheless  it 
is  true.  It  is  true,  moreover,  that  here,  in  Massachusetts,  prac- 
tices are  tolerated  in  some  institutions*  where  the  insane  are 
kept,  which  would  there  be  indictable  at  common  law,  as  will 
be  shown  presently. 

There  are  in  the  Worcester  Hospital  forty-eight    "  strong 

*  There  are  23  insane  persons  confined  in  prisons  in  Massachusetts,  and  152  under 
charge  of  jailers.

rooms,"  or  rather  cells.  They  are  built  of  stone  or  brick,  pre- 
cisely like  prison  cells,  with  grated  doors  and  windows,  aper- 
tures for  putting  in  food,  taking  out  vessels,  &c.  They  are 
so  contrived  that  they  can  be  easily  warmed  and  cleansed 
from  filth  that  offends  the  eye,  but  in  all  other  respects  they 
are  unfit  abodes  for  human  beings.  The  older  ones  are  per- 
fectly detestable.  Opened  to  the  more  enlightened  moral  sense 
of  this  day,  they  seem  like  the  relics  of  a  comparatively  barba- 
rous age.  Well  might  the  Trustees,  in  the  Report  of  last  year, 
ask,  "  How  is  it  possible  that  the  furious,  the  violent,  the  inde- 
cent should  ever  be  restored  while  occupying  apartments  unfit 
for  the  abodes  of  dumb  beasts  ? "  They  might  have  added, 
that  any  sane  man,  unless  an  eminent  non-resistant,  would 
become  "  furious  and  violent  "  by  being  placed  therein. 

Even  those  cells  constructed  at  so  great  cost  within  a  few 
years,  are  not  fit  habitations  for  the  worst  maniac,  because 
they  needlessly  aggravate  his  malady  and  his  misery.  They, 
too,  are  stone  cells,  with  iron  doors  and  grated  windows. 

These  cells  have  been  almost  continually  in  use  since  they 
were  built ;  and  when  the  Hospital  was  as  crowded,  as  it  some- 
times has  been,  their  use  has  doubtless  seemed  absolutely 
necessary. 

So  many  unfortunate  men  and  women  have  been  shut  up 
in  them  year  after  year,  and  so  many  others  have  been  restrained 
by  mechanical  contrivances,  that  such  imprisonment  and  re- 
straint have  come  to  be  considered  as  matters  of  course  in 
the  treatment  of  the  insane  by  official  and  unofficial  visitors, 
by  legislative  committees,  and,  to  a  certain  extent,  by  the  pub- 
lic at  large. 

Now,  it  can  be  shown  that  neither  "seclusion"  nor  "re- 
straint "  of  insane  persons  is  necessary,  saving  in  rare  and 
exceptional  cases,  and  then  only  for  short  periods  of  time 
and  in  ordinary  rooms  ;  first,  by  general  reasoning ;  second, 
by  experience  in  other  places ;  third,  by  experience  here  at 
home  within  the  last  year. 

First,  as  to  the  general  reasoning.  "  Seclusion  "  of  an  insane 
person  is  a  dainty  word  for  expressing  his  imprisonment  in  a 
cell.  Restraint  is  a  dainty  substitute  for  fettering  his  hands 
or  feet,  or  both,  the  fetters  being  of  leather  instead  of  iron. 

Insanity,  as  was  remarked  before,  deranges,  but  does  not 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  27 

alter,  the  nature  of  men.  It  often  merely  intensifies  certain 
modes  of  mental  action.  It  is  especially  apt  to  intensify  the 
lower  and  peculiarly  selfish  propensities.  In  dealing  with 
insane  emotions  and  passions,  we  have  often  to  deal  with  sane 
ones  merely  raised  to  a  higher  power. 

Human  nature  continues  to  pervade  the  motives,  though  the 
actions  be  ever  so  extravagant ;  as  gravity  pervades  particles  of 
matter  that  may  be  forced  upwards  or  sideways  by  disturbing 
forces.  We  are  to  consider  that  opposition  provokes  to  attger, 
and  that  the  soft  answer  turns  away  the  wrath  of  insane  as 
well  as  of  sane  men.  We  are  to  consider  the  principle,  that 
whatever  directly  represses  the  individuality ;  whatever  restrains 
the  personal  liberty;  especially  whatever  restrains  the  freedom 
of  motion  and  locomotion,  instantly  excite  opposition,  temper 
and  rebellion.  This  is  a  sort  of  oppression  of  individual  right 
and  freedom,  which  the  most  dull  or  deranged  intellect  can 
feel,  and  which  every  one  instinctively  resists. 

It  is  amazing  how  contentedly  and  unconsciously  men  bear 
oppression,  if  their  arms,  legs  and  tongues  are  free.  A  man 
who  was  sitting  contentedly  in  a  room  immediately  desires  to 
go  out  if  any  one  locks  the  door.  A  man  who  never  cared  to 
leave  his  quarter  of  the  town,  if  put  under  arrest,  at  once  wants 
to  break  the  jail  limits,  though  they  are  as  extensive  as  the 
whole  county.  If  the  Legislature  should  enact  that  no  inhab- 
itant of  Massachusetts  should  leave  the  State  under  heavy 
penalties,  there  would  be  a  rush  of  men,  women  and  children 
towards  the  borders. 

The  more  directly  restraint  affects  the  person,  the  more 
feeling  and  opposition  it  excites.  A  man  who  would  only  be 
indignant  if  confined  in  a  room,  is  furious  if  his  hands  are  tied, 
A  woman  who  would  only  scold  and  fret  at  the  imprisonment, 
would  scratch  and  bite  at  the  bonds.  An  angry  man  whose 
doubled  fist  would  be  dashed  into  any  face  that  wore  a  look  of 
defiance,  is  soon  calmed  by  a  placid  smile. 

Now,  the  natural  supposition  is  that  people  are  not  utterly 
changed  in  these  respects  by  insanity.  So  long  as  the  senses, 
are  unimpaired,  and  the  perceptive  faculties,  or  any  of  them, 
are  active ;  so  long  as  any  reason  remains,  (and  its  light  is  sel-. 
dom  entirely  quenched,)  so  long  must  men  be  more  or  less 
subject  to  the  ordinary  laws  of  humanity. 


28  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jan. 

Secondly.  Abundant  recent  experience  confirms  the  infer- 
ence that  would  be  drawn  from  a  priori  reasoning,  and  proves 
that  forcible  restraint  of  insane  persons  usually  does  more  harm 
than  good,  and  is  very  seldom  necessary.  Indeed,  the  great 
modern  reformation  in  the  treatment  of  the  insane  is  founded 
upon  this  idea.  The  heroic  Pinel  confided  in  it.  Having  with 
difficulty  got  permission  from  the  timid  authorities,  who  proph- 
esied all  sorts  of  evil,  he  first  made  what  was  deemed  the  peril- 
ous experiment.  He  went  to  the  cells  of  the  great  Parisian 
madhouse,  where  furious  men  were  struggling  with  their 
chains,  striking  at  whoever  approached  the  gratings,  spitting 
at  them,  and  yelling  themselves  hoarse  with  curses  and  impre- 
cations. He  boldly  entered,  and  having  charmed  and  calmed 
the  maniacs  by  his  gentle  but  firm  bearing,  he  struck  off 
their  fetters.  The  prisoners  were  amazed  at  the  sudden  recov- 
ery of  freedom,  and  at  the  unexpected  fact  that  no  one  would 
fight  or  oppose  them,  and  they  soon  became  appeased  and 
quiet.  They  did  not  abuse,  nor  even  care  to  exercise  their 
freedom,  but  soon  yielded  to  that  common  instinct  of  human- 
ity which  is  seldom  lost,  even  through  insanity, — the  instinct 
which  leads  us  in  childhood,  in  sickness,  in  prostration,  when- 
ever, in  short,  we  are  conscious  of  inability  to  guide  ourselves, 
then  to  seek  the  guidance  of  others,  and,  if  the  guidance  can- 
not be  found  in  men,  to  seek  it  of  God. 

A  reform  was  commenced  at  once  ;  and  though  it  has  been 
obstructed,  and  occasionally  retarded,  as  all  reforms  are  sure  to 
be  by  timid  conservatism,  it  has  been  carried  on  with  the  most 
blessed  results.  In  all  civilized  countries  the  reformation  was 
hailed  with  pleasure,  and  in  all  its  principles  were  admitted  to 
a  certain  extent ;  though  practiced  upon  far  more  heartily  and 
fully  in  some  than  in  others. 

In  some  British  hospitals  the  reform  became  a  complete 
revolution,  and  all  forcible  mechanical  restraint  of  patients 
and  all  seclusion  were  completely  discarded.  Their  example 
has  been  virtually  followed  by  some  hospitals  in  this  country. 
In  others  the  principle  of  the  reform  was  not  admitted  with 
full  faith,  and  there  the  old  usages  were  clung  to,  or  given  up 
grudgingly  and  by  halves.  The  old  cages  were  improved  a 
little,  and  called  "  strong  rooms  ;"  and  the  iron  chains  were  re- 
placed by  leathern  straps. 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  29 

There  was  a  conflict  of  opinion  and  of  words.  The  force 
of  reasoning  and  the  weight  of  evidence  soon  seemed  in 
favor  of  an  almost  complete  reliance  upon  moral  means, 
and  an  almost  complete  abandonment  of  forcible  restraint 
and  seclusion,  in  the  treatment  of  the  insane.  Still,  how- 
ever, this  "  almost "  left  a  wide  margin  for  variety  of  prac- 
tice in  different  hospitals,  and  for  honest  differences  of  opinion 
as  to  the  degree  in  which  the  principle  of  non-restraint,  as  it 
was  called,  could  be  safely  acted  upon.  In  this,  as  in  all 
similar  matters,  men's  judgments  were  unconsciously  affected 
by  their  character.  Bold  and  hopeful  reformers  went  forward  ; 
cautious  and  doubting  conservatives  held  back. 

The  British  Commissioners  in  Lunacy,  conscious  of  the 
vital  importance  of  this  matter,  issued  circulars  to  the  Super- 
intendents of  public  and  private  hospitals  in  the  kingdom, 
asking  for  the  result  of  their  experience  in  regard  to  it.  The 
answers  are  from  one  hundred  and  eighty-one  institutions,  and 
embody  a  vast  amount  of  interesting  and  important  informa- 
tion. In  June,  1854,  the  Commissioners  made  their  Report, 
which  concludes  thus  : — 

"  As  the  general  result  which  may  be  fairly  deduced  from  a  careful  examination 
and  review  of  the  whole  body  of  information  thus  collected,  we  feel  ourselves  fully 
warranted  in  stating,  that  the  disuse  of  instrumental  restraint,  as  unnecessary  and 
injurious  to  the  patients,  is  practically  the  rule  in  nearly  all  the  public  institutions 
in  the  kingdom,  and  generally  also  in  the  best  conducted  private  asylums, /even 
those  where  the  '  non-restraint  system,'  as  an  abstract  principle,  admitting  of  no 
deviation  or  exception,  has  not,  in  terms,  been  adopted. 

"  For  ourselves  we  have  long  been  convinced,  and  have  steadily  acted  on  the 
conviction,  that  the  possibility  of  dispensing  with  mechanical  coersion,  in  the  man- 
agement of  the  insane,  is,  in  a  vast  majority  of  cases,  a  mere  question  of  qxpense, 
and  that  its  continued  or  systematic  use,  in  the  asylums  and  licensed  houses  where 
it  still  prevails,  must,  in  a  great  measure,  be  ascribed  to  their  want  of  suitable  space 
and  accommodations,  their  defective  structural  arrangements,  or  their  not  possessing 
an  adequate  staff  of  properly  qualified  attendants,  and  frequently  to  all  these  causes 
combined.  j 

"  As  respects  the  question  of  seclusion,  it  will  be  seen,  upon  a  pertisal  of  the 
statements  in  Appendix  (G,)  that  its  occasional  use  for  short  periods,  chfcfly  during 
paroxysms  of  epilepsy  or  violent  mania,  is  generally  considered  beneficed. 

"At  the  same  time,  we  would  observe,  that  the  facilities  which  seclusion  holds 
out  to  harsh  or  indolent  attendants,  for  getting  rid  of  and  neglecting  'xoublesome 
patients  under  violent  attacks  of  mania,  instead  of  taking  pains  to  soothe  their 
irritated  feelings,  and  work  off  their  excitement  by  exercise  and  chmge  of  scene, 
render  it  liable  to  considerable  abuse  ;  and  that,  as  a  practice,  it  is  oppn,  though  in 
a  minor  degree,  to  nearly  the  same  objections  which  apply  to  the  ijtore  stringent 


30  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jan. 

forms  of  mechanical  restraint.  We  are,  therefore,  strongly  of  opinion,  that,  when- 
ever seclusion  is  resorted  to  as  a  means  of  tranquillizing  the  patient,  it  should  only 
be  employed  with  the  knowledge  and  direct  sanction  of  the  medical  officers,  and 
even  then  be  of  very  limited  duration. 

"  Further  experience,  we  think,  has  shown  that,  except  for  the  reception  of  epi- 
leptic patients  during  the  continuance  of  their  paroxyms,  and,  in  a  few  cases,  where 
there  is  a  determined  propensity  to  suicide,  the  utility  of  padded  rooms  is  not  so 
great  as  was  at  one  time  supposed,  and  that,  for  cases  of  ordinary  maniacal  excite- 
ment, seclusion  in  a  common  day- room  or  sleeping-room  of  moderate  size,  from 
which  all  articles  that  might  furnish  instruments  of  violence  or  destruction  have 
been  removed,  and  v/hich  is  capable  of  being  readily  darkened,  when  required,  by 
a  locked  shutter,  will,  in  general,  be  found  to  answer  every  useful  piirpose." 


In  many  American  hospitals  the  principle  of  "  non-restraint " 
has  been  acted  upon  wisely,  though  without  that  attachment 
to  a  theory  which  leads  some  to  forbid  a  resort  to  any  mechan- 
ical restraint  or  forcible  seclusion,  even  in  those  rare  but  not 
unknown  cases  which  are  manifestly  benefited  by  their  prudent 
use. 

The  Trustees  have  long  regretted  that  circumstances  did 
not  permit  the  adoption  of  this  reform  as  fully  at  Worcester  as 
in  other 'American  hospitals. 

A  Corhmittee  of  the  Board  last  year  visited  nine  hospitals 
or  :  of  Nkw  England,  and  there  found  that,  taking  the  whole 
number  f  patients,  only  one  in  three  hundred  was  confined  in 
a  sfccong  room,  while  at  Worcester  more  than  ten  times  that 
pre  portion  of  patients  were  so  confined.  There  were  less  than 
six  :  undre.'l  patients  ;  and  yet  the  forty-eight  strong  rooms  were 
■  almost  continually  used  for  the  forcible  seclusion  of  men  and 
womm,  many  of  whom  were  raving,  and  whose  wretchedness 
was  toubtJess  increased  by  their  imprisonment  and  restraint. 

Thi  records  of  the  Trustees  will  show  how  often  and  how 
strong  y  they  have  denounced  these  rooms  as  unfit  places  of 
habitation.  But  there  was  always  a  crowd  of  patients  within 
the  Ho  jpitai ,  and  more  pressing  for  admission.  Those  in  charge 
deemed  it  n.  ;ssary  to  use  these  rooms.  Still,  therefore,  men 
and  w  >rien  were  thrust  into  them,  and  made  more  furious  by 
the  cos  nement;  and  still  many  others  were  restrained  by 
straps  a vl  various  mechanical  contrivances,  who  might  have 
had'- fret  "!m:  <  motion,  and  the  use  of  their  limbs,  if  sufficient 
space  a,  '  suiij  lent  means  of  medical  and  moral  treatment 
had  been  -,\t  command,  and  if  there  had  been  fuller  faith  in 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  31 

the  efficacy  of  milder  measures.  The  principal  evil,  and  that 
which  seemed  to  justify  the  use  of  so  much  seclusion  and  re- 
straint, was  the  crowd  of  patients.  Of  this  evil,  the  Trustees 
and  the  Superintendent  have  complained,  as  often  and  as 
loudly  as  seemed  becoming  and  proper  to  do. 

In  1853,  the  crowd  was  so  great,  and  the  danger  of  an  epi- 
demic so  imminent,  that  a  vigorous  effort  was  made  by  the 
Trustees  to  lessen  the  number,  by  summarily  discharging  one 
hundred  patients,  and  throwing  them  back  upon  the  town 
authorities.  This,  however,  caused  so  much  opposition,  so 
much  complaint,  and  so  much  real  distress,  that  it  was  not 
persevered  in  long. 

Thirdly.  An  opportunity  has  been  furnished  during-^he  last* 
year  of  showing  here  at  home,  by  actual  experiment,  and 
beyond  all  possibility  of  doubt  or  cavil,  that  the  imprisonment 
and  restraint  of  insane  persons,  as  practised  at  Worcester  for 
so  many  years,  was  not  necessary  for  their  proper  care  and.  safe-_ 
keeping.  During  the  months  of  January,  February  and  March, 
there  had  been  sixty-six  patients  confined  in  the  "  strongrooms," 
twenty-one  of  them  during  the  whole  time,  thirty-three  nearly 
half  the  time,  the  others  during  various  periods  from  a  day  to 
a  month. 

In  April,  two  hundred  and  ten  patients  were  removed  to  the 
new  hospital  at  Taunton.  The  patients  selected  were  those 
whose  homes  were  in  the  neighborhood  of  Taunton,  and  not 
those  who  were  most  troublesome.  By  reason  of  qne  of  those 
curious  circumstances  which,  if  unnoticed,  defeat  statistical 
calculations,  it  so  happened  that  only  a  few  of  them  were 
of  that  violent  class  whom  it  had  been  deemed  necessary 
to  confine  at  Worcester.  Still,  however,  the  change  in  their 
condition,  and  consequently  in  their  conduct,  after  arriving  at 
Taunton,  and  enjoying  the  superior  advantages  of  the  new 
hospital,  was  most  striking  and  most  gratifying.  Two  hun- 
dred and  two  out  of  the  two  hundred  and  ten  patients  enjoyed 
the  full  liberty  of  the  hospital,  and  the  free  use  of  their  limb" 
from  the  moment  of  their  arrival.  Not  a  single  one  was 
fined  in  a  "  strong  room."  Nine  were  occasionally  restrain 
by  being  shut  up  in  their  ordinary  chambers,  6r  wore  the 
isole,  or  leathern  straps,  a  few  days  at  a  time.  One  unfortu-^J 
woman  only  had  to  have  her  hands  confined  most  of  the  til 


32  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jan. 

though  even  she  is  now  free.  Among  the  patients  transferred 
were  three  who  had  been  confined  in  strong  rooms  during  the 
whole  of  the  three  last  months  passed  in  Worcester,  and  six 
who  had  been  confined  a  third  of  the  time.  Now,  every  one 
of  these  men  were  left  perfectly  free,  and  have  remained  so, 
and  have  done  no  harm  to  themselves  or  others. 

These  facts,  added  to  that  of  the  confinement  in  prisons  of 
so  many  lunatics  innocent  of  crime,  prove  the  truth  of  what 
was  said  above,  that  Massachusetts  has  been  and  is  treating 
lunatics  in  a  manner  that  would  be  indictable  at  common  law 
in  England. 

In  1853,  a  man  named  William  Robert  was  tried  at  the 
Carnarvonshire  Summer  Assizes  for  having  kept  his  brother, 
a  lunatic,  needlessly  confined  with  a  chain  in  a  room  about 
the  dimensions  of  our  strong  rooms  at  Worcester.  There  was 
no  cruel  intent  proved  or  even  alleged  ;  there  was  no  stint  of 
food  ;  the  man  was  in  good  health,  and  fat ;  he  was  kept  as 
well,  perhaps,  as  his  relatives  knew  how  to  keep  him  ;  and  yet 
Robert  was  found  guilty  of  "  unlawfully  confining  and 
imprisoning  his  brother  in  an  improper,  excessive  and  cruel 
manner,"  and  he  was  himself  condemned  to  one  month's 
imprisonment. 

Lord  Chief  Justice  Campbell,  in  his  charge  to  the  jury,  dis- 
tinctly stated  the  principle,  that  the  use  of  restraint  greater  in 
degree,  more  severe  in  character,  or  longer  in  duration,  than  is 
necessary  for  the  security  and  care  of  a  lunatic,  is  an  offence 
at  common  law,  and  indictable  as  such. 

Massachusetts  is  a  sovereign  State,  and  will  not  answer 
the  summons  of  any  earthly  court.  She  cannot  be  mulcted  in 
damages ;  and  there  is  no  prison  large  or  strong  enough  to  hold 
her.  But  there  is  a  higher  court  before  which  she  is  arraigned 
continually  ;  whose  sentence  she  cannot  escape  ;  but  which  she 
must  execute  upon  herself.  The  plea,  that  she  had  no  cruel 
intent,  will  avail  but  little,  and  that  of  ignorance  can  no  longer 
be  made.  If,  in  her  hospitals,  jails,  houses  of  correction,  and 
almshouses,  the  helpless  insane  continue  to  be  subjected  to 
greater  privation  of  freedom  and  to  greater  suffering,  than  are 
absolutely  necessary  for  their  care  and  safekeeping,  she  will 
be  continuing  in  wrong  doing,  and  must  suffer  the  heavy  pen- 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  33 

alty  of   a  condemning  conscience,  or  the   heavier  penalty  of 
lack  of  conscience  to  condemn. 

The  Trustees,  anxious  to  prevent  any  relapse  into  the  old 
system,  under  any  pressure  of  a  crowd,  or  under  any  supposed 
necessity,  and  aware,  moreover,  of  the  temptation  which  the 
existence  of  "  strong  rooms  "  offers  to  attendants  to  get  rid  of 
the  trouble  of  watching  patients,  by  confining  them  under  bar 
and  bolt,  have  directed  the  demolition  of  most  of  these  offen- 
sive cells,  and  the  construction  of  comfortable  sitting  rooms  in 
their  place.  They  trust  that  their  successors  will  persevere  in 
the  work,  and  that,  in  future,  no  seclusion  and  no  mechanical 
restraint  will  be  used  here,  for  the  treatment  of  the  insane, 
except  in  those  rare  cases  where  solitude  is  required,  or  where 
the  patient  must  be  restrained,  either  by  men's  hands  or  by 
instruments,  and  in  which  the  latter  is  the  least  objectionable. 

REMEDY  FOR  DEFECTS.   IMPROVEMENTS,  ETC. 

The  Trustees  having  thus  commented  upon  several  imper- 
fections of  the  Hospital,  without,  however,  exhausting  the 
subject,  may,  of  course,  be  expected  to  propose  some  effectual 
remedy  therefor.  This  they  did  in  a  memorial  to  the  legisla- 
ture at  its  last  session.  To  this  memorial  they  now  refer,  with 
the  remark,  that  additional  experience,  observation  and  reflec- 
tion, have  confirmed  them  in  the  opinions  there  set  forth; 

They  showed  that  there  are  many  important  defects  in  the 
establishment,  which  are  radical  and  irremediable,  and  which 
must  embarrass  those  who  administer  its  affairs,  and  prevent 
them  from  doing  so  much  for  the  cure  and  care  of  the  insane 
as  they  might  otherwise  do. 

First.  That  the  site  of  the  building  has  become  a  very  un- 
favorable one,  owing  mainly  to  the  rapid  growth  of  the  neigh- 
borhood. The  once  quiet  village  of  "Worcester  has  become  a 
busy  manufacturing  city,  and  is  rapidly  encompassing  the 
Hospital.  Roads,  streets,  and  rail-tracks  run  in  front  and  rear, 
and  across  the  premises,  so  that  the  patients  cannot  go  to  walk, 
or  ramble  in  the  fields  and  woods,without  crossing  some  of  them. 
They  cannot  even  stroll  quietly  in  their  own  grounds  and  gar- 
dens with  any  privacy  and  quiet.  They  are  subject  to  the 
observation  of  the  curious,  and  the  rudeness  of  the  indiscreet 

Now,  the  noise  and  din,  the  hurry  and  bustle,  of  an  enter- 
5 


34  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jaii. 

prising  manufacturing  town,  the  busy  streets,  the  swift  succes- 
sion of  passers  by,  the  rush  of  cars,  and  the  shriek  of  steam 
whistles,  may  be  pleasant  and  useful  to  certain  patients ;  they 
may  furnish  a  desirable  excitement ;  but  the  Hospital  should  be 
so  placed  that  such  patients  can  have  access  to  them,  without 
being  so  placed  that  none  can  escape  from  them. 

Second.  The  memorial  showed  that  the  sewerage  is  very 
imperfect,  and  that,  owing  to  the  situation  of  the  land,  no  fea- 
sible method  had  been  found  for  carrying  off  the  waste  water 
from  the  building.  This  is  received  into  the  gardens ;  and 
there  some  of  it  is  absorbed,  and  some  is  evaporated,  while 
some  remains  stagnant  at  certain  seasons,  so  that  the  air  must 
be  more  or  less  vitiated. 

Third.  That  the  structure  of  the  main  building  is,  for  this 
age,  very  bad.  It  has  five  kitchens,  instead  of  one  central  one. 
It  is  inconvenient  in  many  respects.  It  lacks  the  many  con- 
veniences and  appliances  which  experience  has  shown  to  be 
important  in  the  administration  of  such  establishments,  and 
conducive  to  the  comfort  and  well  being  of  the  patients. 
Owing  to  the  want  of  height  between  the  floors,  and  to  other 
radical  defects,  it  cannot  be  so  modified  as  to  meet  the  ad- 
vanced requirements  of  the  times. 

Fourth.  That  the  arrangements  for  ventilation  were  never 
sufficient,  and  that,  owing  to  structural  defects  in  the  building, 
they  can  never  be  made  so.  There  is  not  sufficient  volume 
of  air  in  the  wards  ;  and  it  cannot  be  kept  pure  without 
changing  it  so  rapidly  as  to  create  almost  a  gale  of  wind. 
The  evil  has  been  much  lessened  by  arrangements  adopted 
this  season,  but  it  cannot  be  completely  abated. 

Fifth.  That  the  arrangements  for  warming  the  building  are 
imperfect  and  insecure.  The  building  has  already  been  on 
fire  several  times !  TJie  risk  of  fire  is  still  greater  than  pru- 
dent persons  ought,  unnecessarily,  to  run.  It  is  greater  than 
careful  men  of  business  would  run  in  a  manufactory  filled 
with  valuable  merchandise. 

These  reasons  were  deemed  sufficient  to  warrant  a  recom* 
mendation  to  the  legislature  that  the  grounds  and  buildings 
should  be  sold,  and  a  new  building  erected  upon  a  suitable  site 
in  the  immediate  neighborhood.  This  recommendation  the 
Trustees  distinctly  made,  and  they  endeavored  to  enforce  it  by 
other  considerations,  such  as  that—  "v 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  35 

First.  If  the  old  building  is  to  be  continued  in  use,  the  State 
is  bound,  by  considerations  of  safety  of  the  patients,  to  intro- 
duce a  secure  and  efficient  apparatus  for  warming.  The  best 
one  yet  tried,  and  which  would  be  applicable  to  the  building, 
is  a  steam  apparatus,  and  this  would  cost  from  sixty  to  seventy- 
five  thousand  dollars. 

Second.  The  real  estate  of  the  present  Hospital  would  sell 
for  at  least  one  hundred  thousand  dollars  more  than  the  cost 
of  a  suitable  site  for  a  building  and  a  good  farm  in  the  neigh- 
borhood. There  would  be  a  saving  of  one  hundred  and  sev- 
enty-five thousand  dollars,  so  that  there  could  be  no  weighty 
objection  on  the  lower  considerations  of  economy,  to  what 
is  called  for  by  higher  considerations  of  humanity ;  to  wit,  the 
erection  of  a  new  hospital  in  all  respects  Avorthy  of  the  State. 

The  Trustees  might  further  enforce  this  recommendation  by 
many  considerations,  the  result  of  the  last  year's  experience 
and  observation,  but  they  will  close  by  quoting,  from  a  high 
authority,  a  passage  very  much  to  the  point. 

The  Commissioners  in  Lunacy,  in  their  last  Report  to  the 
British  Parliament,  July,  1854,  after  speaking  of  their  endeav- 
ors to  improve  the  condition  of  hospitals,  conclude  thus  : — 

"  We  regret  to  say  that  our  endeavors  in  this  respect  are,  in  several  of  these  in- 
stitutions, opposed  by  great  difficulties,  some  arising  from  defects  in  the  original 
construction  of  the  buildings,  and  others  from  an  adherence  to  certain  errors  in 
management  and  treatment,  which,  in  the  best  conducted  establishments  for  the 
insane,  are  condemned,  and  have  now  become  obsolete. 

"  Indeed,  so  formidable  are  the  difficulties  in  the  way  of  advancement,  in  old 
and  badly  situated  hospitals,  that,  in  those  instances  where  improvements  have  been 
attempted,  large  sums  of  money  have  sometimes  been  spent  without  adequate  results. 
In  such  cases,  th&  only  effectual  mode  of  overcoming  all  obstacles  to  improvement 
appears  to  be,  to  abandon  the  old  buildings,  and  erect  new 'buildings  on  eligible 
sites  ;  a  course  which  has  already  been  taken  at  Manchester  and  Stafford,  and  about 
to  be  adopted  at  Nottingham."     :jfl 

In  consequence  of  the  memorial' of  the  Trustees,  the  legisla- 
ture, at  its  last  session,  arj^ointed  a.  Commission  to  consider  the 
matter,  and  also  to  ascertain  the  number,  condition  and 
wants  of  the  insane  in  the  Commonwealth,  and  to  report  upon 
the  subject  generally. 

This  Commission  has  performed  its  arduous  task  with  re- 
markable skiU  and  success.  There  has,  probably,  never  been 
collected,  in   any  large  community,  such  a  mass  of  minute, 


36  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL,  [Jan, 

thorough,  and  reliable  information,  concerning  the  number  and 
condition  of  the  insane,  as  has  been  gathered  by  this  Commis- 
sion, excepting,  perhaps,  that  gathered  by  the  eminent  Q,uete» 
let  in  Belgium. 

They  have  ascertained  the  names,  age,  sex  and  condition  of 
over  twenty-four  hundred  insane  persons,  and  of  more  than 
one  thousand  idiotic  persons. 

This  information  will  soon  be  spread  before  the  legislature? 
and  will  show  the  pressing  necessity  of  further  and  immediate 
provision  for  the  insane  of  the  Commonwealth. 

The  Trustees  have  had  several  interviews  with  the  Commis* 
sioners,  and,  after  earnest  consideration  of  the  subject,  have 
coincided  with  them  in  the  following  conclusions  :-— 

That  there  is  urgent  need  of  more  accommodations  for  the 
insane,  and  that,  therefore,  a  new  Hospital  should  be  erected 
immediately  in  the  western  part  of  the  State. 

That  the  new  Hospital  should  be  constructed  for  no  more 
than  two  hundred  and  fifty  patients. 

That  final  action  upon  the  question  of  the  disposition  to  be 
made  of  the  property  at  Worcester,  and  the  erection  of  a 
new  building  in  that  neighborhood,  (though  the  questions  de- 
serve serious  attention,)  should  be  deferred  until  after  the 
Western  Hospital  is  completed. 

That  further  alterations  and  improvements  shall  be  made  in 
the  old  building,  by  means  of  funds  now  in  the  hands  of  the 
Trustees,  and  the  inconveniences  and  evils  be  borne  as  they 
best  can  be,  in  view  of  their  effectual  remedy  within  a  few 
years. 

It  is  partly  in  consequence  of  having  come  to  these  conclu- 
sions that  the  Trustees  have  directed  several  alterations  and 
improvements  in  the  old  building  and  grounds.

SUPERINTENDENT'S  REPORT. 


Twenty-second  Annual  Report    of  the  Superintendent    to   the 
Trustees  of  the  State  Lunatic  Hospital. 

Gentlemen: — The  interesting  facts  and  e*vents  that  have 
occurred  in  this  institution  the  past  year  are  herewith  presented. 
The  health  of  the  inmates  generally  has,  perhaps,  never  been 
better.  There  has  been  but  very  little  acute  disease,  and  noth- 
ing like  an  epidemic,  among  our  household.  By  the  timely 
transfer,  to  the  kindred  institution  in  this  State,  of  two  hun- 
dred and  ten  patients,  the  remainder  were  saved  from  the 
contaminating  influence  of  an  excessively  crowded  house 
during  the  warm  weather.  By  order  of  the  governor,  we  con- 
veyed to  the  Second  Hospital  for  the  Insane  in  Taunton,  on 
Friday,  the  7th  of  April,  and  on  each  of  the  five  succeeding 
Fridays,  a  car  load  of  patients.  By  an  arrangement  of  the 
railroads,  an  extra  engine  took  a  car  filled  with  some  thirty-five 
patients,  and  from  two  to  five  attendants,  and  ran  to  meet  the 
connecting  train.  There  was  no  accident,  and,  indeed,  no  dif- 
ficulty, in  the  transfer.  The  patients  were  mostly  of  a  very 
orderly  class,  and  they  were  gratified  with  the  ride.  The  pa- 
tients selected  by  the  Governor  were  those  from  that  section 
of  the  State,  and  from  the  counties  of  Norfolk,  Suffolk,  and 
Middlesex — being  one  hundred  and  five  of  each  sex.  During 
this  time,  our  number  of  patients  was  reduced  from  five  hun- 
dred and  fifty-nine  to  three  hundred  and  forty-three.  This 
reduction  took  off  no  more  than  the  overplus,  and  left  this 
Hospital  quite  full,  but  not  crowded.  The  relief  thus  afforded 
us  was  seized  upon  to  paint  and  fit  up  several  of  our  wards. 
But  more  desirable  to  us  than  for  any  thing  else,  it  gave  us  a 
possible  chance  to  abandon  nine  strong  rooms  that  had  been 
daily  used,  ever  since  the  institution  was  opened,  for  the  vio- 
lent and  filthy  males,  and  also  to  disuse,  forever  I  trust  for  that 
purpose,  eight  rooms  in  the  basement  of  the  north  old  wing, 
6

for  the  same  class  of  females.  These  seventeen  rooms  have 
not  been  occupied  at  all,  for  seven  months  past,  by  patients, 
but  they  have  been  converted  to  other  uses.  They  were  never 
proper  for  the  purposes  they  were  designed  and  put  to  ;  and, 
of  late  years,  they  were  used  only  from  what  we  thought  abso- 
lute necessity. 

Abandoning  these  ill-contrived  rooms,  and  reducing  the 
number  of  our  patients  to  about  the  capacity  of  the  institu- 
tion, has  lessened  our  cares  and  responsibilities,  while  we  have 
been  enabled  thereby  to  improve  very  materially  the  general 
appearance  of  the  institution  and  condition  of  its  inmates. 

The  improvement  in  the  ventilation,  which,  under  the  direc- 
tion of  the  Hon.  Jonathan  Preston,  has,  in  part,  been  effected, 
and  which  will  soon  be  finished,  will  render  our  wards  still 
more  healthful  and  pleasant.  We  know  that  one  fruitful 
source  of  the  just  odium  this  Hospital  has  received  the  last 
year  or  two  arose,  in  a  great  degree,  from  its  crowded  wards, 
another  from  its  defective  ventilation.  The  atmosphere  of 
apartments  occupied  by  the  healthy,  we  all  know,  becomes 
vitiated  soon,  unless  frequently  changed.  The  air  of  the  wards 
of  hospitals  becomes  vitiated,  not  only  by  respiration,  but  by 
diseased  secretions  of  the  sick.  At  this  Hospital,  the  same 
room  that  is  used  as  the  sitting-room  by  day  is  made  the  dor- 
mitory at  night.  The  means  of  ventilating  the  sleeping  apart- 
ments in  this  Hospital  are  undoubtedly  much  more  ample 
than  they  are  in  the  greater  part  of  the  private  dwellings  in 
this  State.  But  still,  for  a  hospital,  the  means  here  are  de- 
ficient. Besides  the  window  in  each  room,  these  means  of 
ventilation  consist  of  an  opening  over  the  door,  about  eight 
inches  by  thirty,  into  the  gallery,  into  which  the  warm  air  of 
the  furnaces  is  diffused.  Leading  from  each  room,  ventiducts, 
opening  in  the  attics,  are  constructed  in  the  partition  walls. 
These  ducts  are  about  four  inches  square.  In  most  of  the 
rooms  there  are  two  of  these  ducts — one  from  near  the  bottom, 
and  one  from  near  the  top.  In  those  rooms  that  have  but  one 
duct,  that  one  is  about  four  inches  and  a  half  square.  This 
improvement  consists  in  continuing  these  ventiducts  as  they 
come  up  to  the  attic,  each  story  by  itself,  in  wooden  boxes, 
into  a  main  shaft  near  the  chimney,  into  an  enlargement  of 
which,  recently  altered  for  that  purpose,  this  main  shaft  enters, 


1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  43 

and  there  the  foul  air  from  the  rooms  below  comes  in  contact 
with  the  nine-inch  cast-iron  smoke-pipe  of  the  furnace  in  the 
basement.  Where  it  was  not  convenient  to  collect  these  ducts 
into  a  brick  chimney,  Collins's  Ventilators,  thirty  inches  in 
diameter,  have  been  placed  on  the  roof  for  that  purpose.  Here- 
tofore, the  foul  air  that  came  up  through  these  ducts  into  the 
attic  diffused  itself  through  the  whole  attic,  seeking  an  open 
window  to  escape,  or  to  find  another  duct  in  which  the  current 
was  reversed  by  some  means.  It  has  been  not  at  all  uncom- 
mon to  find  the  current  up  in  one  duct,  and  down  another,  in 
the  same  wing  of  the  Hospital  at  the  same  time.  When  the 
wind  is  strong  against  one  side  of  the  Hospital,  and  windows 
open  on  the  opposite  side,  it  is  not  unfrequent  that  the  air 
rushed  up  the  windward  ducts,  and  down  the  leeward  ones. 
In  ducts  in  the  outer  walls  of  brick  buildings,  the  current  of 
air  in  winter  is  often  down,  and  in  summer  up ;  because,  in 
winter,  the  walls  and  ducts  are  colder  than  the  air  inside,  and 
in  the  summer  the  duct  is  often  warmed  by  the  direct  rays  of 
the  sun  on  the  outside,  and  the  air  in  the  duct  is  rarefied  and 
raised.  The  internal  partitions,  when  of  brick,  become  colder 
in  summer  than  the  surrounding  atmosphere,  and  condense 
it,  and  the  current  in  flues  in  them  is  often  down.  The 
smell  of  soot,  from  chimneys  unused  in  summer,  is  from  the 
same  cause.  It  is  supposed  that  this  change  in  the  mode  of 
ventilation  will  increase  the  quantity  of  foul  air  that  will  pass 
off,  by  increasing  the  currents,  and  render  less  liable  the  foul 
air  to  return  to  the  wards  again  after  it  has  been  carried  to  the 
attics,  by  conveying  it  more  directly  to  the  Collins's  Ventilators 
or  to  the  tops  of  the  chimneys.  The  foul  air,  after  it  gets  into 
the  chimneys,  comes  in  immediate  contact  with  the  cast-iron 
smoke-pipe,  which,  by  its  heat  of  the  furnace  for  six  months  or 
more  in  the  year,  will  keep  up  a  constant  current  upwards  in 
the  ducts  below.  The  external  winds,  the  harder  they  strike 
upon  the  Collins's  Ventilators,  will  so  much  the  more  increase 
the  currents  in  those  ducts  that  are  collected  in  them.  The 
fixtures  described  above  refer  to  the  ducts  that  start  from  the 
bottom  of  each  room.  The  flues  that  start  from  the  top  of 
the  rooms  open  into  the  attic  yet,  and  in  extreme  cold  weather 
will  be  closed,  to  enable  us  to  warm  the  wards  sufficiently. 
All  the  water  closets  recently  renewed  are  ventilated  down-

wards,  which  is  also  a  decided  improvement  upon  the  old 
movable  pan.  One  new  sewer  has  been  laid  down,  and  an- 
other has  been  covered  over  a  hundred  feet  farther  from  the 
building.  Other  of  the  drains  need  covering,  which  can  be 
done  early  in  the  ensuing  spring ;  when,  also,  the  piggery  should 
be  removed,  from  the  place  it  has  occupied  for  twenty -two 
years,  to  one  more  remote  from  the  buildings.  When  the  wind 
is  easterly,  these  pens  have  been  offensive  from  their  proximity.

1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  71 

More  than  one-third  of  this  year  had  passed  before  any  of 
the  commitments  were  diverted  from  this  hospital  to  the  new- 
hospital  in  Taunton ;  hence  our  books  show  some  admis- 
sions from  the  counties  in  that  section  of  the  Commonwealth. 
It  is  probable  that  hereafter  there  will  be  but  few,  if  any,  sent 
here  from  that  part  of  the  State,  although  there  is  nothing  in 
the  laws,  I  believe,  by  which  judges  are  required  to  commit 
.the  insane  to  that  hospital  rather  than  this.  That  point  was 
undoubtedly  left  unsettled  purposely,  that  the  friends  of  the 
patient  might  make  their  election  between  the  two  institutions. 
The  laws  give  the  governor  authority,  from  time  to  time,  to 
equalize,  if  need  be,  the  relative  numbers  in  the  two  hospitals, 
by  transferring  such  patients  from  one  to  the  other  as  he  shall 
see  fit.

The  results  of  the  year  have  been  favorable  in  a  curative 
point  of  view.  One  hundred  and  twenty-two  have  recovered 
so  as  to  return  to  their  families  and  business.  Others  have 
left  us  improved  or  otherwise,  who,  had  they  remained  longer, 
would  have  increased  the  number  of  cures.  Some  of  those 
transferred  by  the  Governor  had  been  with  us  only  a  few  days. 

Among  the  "  harmless  and  incurable "  are  included  a  few 
State  paupers  that  the  Overseers  of  the  Poor  took  directly  to 
the  State  Almshouses,  from  one  of  which  we  have  received 
others  in  return.     Those  we  received  from  the   State  Alms-

others  to  you  to  be  sent  back  to  the  towns  as  fit  subjects  for 
those  institutions.

Probably  in  no  part  of  the  world  are  the  causes  of  insanity 
more  numerous  and  more  active  than  among  the  population 
of  Massachusetts.  Here  the  mind,  and  body  too,  are  often 
worked  to  the  extreme  point  of  endurance.  Here  wealth  and 
station  are  the  results  of  well-directed  efforts  ;  and  the  general 
diffusion  of  intelligence  among  the  whole  people  stimulates  a 
vast  many  of  them  to  compete  successfully  for  these  prizes. 
But  in  the  contest,  where  so  many  strive,  not  a  few  break  down. 
The  results  on  their  minds  may  not,  perhaps,  be  any  less  dis- 
astrous, whether  wealth  and  station  are  obtained  or  not.  The 
true  balance  of  the  mind  is  disturbed  by  prosperity  as  well  as 


78

[Jan. 


adversity.  It  is  only  in  a  sound  body  that  the  manifestations 
of  the  mind  are  sane  and  entirely  healthy.  As  a  people^we 
cannot  boast  of  the  highest  standard  of  physical  health,  al- 
though we  may  of  general  intelligence,  enterprise  and  hard

1855.]  SENATE— No.  1.  83 

In  this  table,  the  two  hundred  and  ten  that  werejransf erred 
were  not  taken  into  the  count,  Had  they  been  reckoned,  the 
per  cent,  would  have  been  different.  For  recent  cases  recov- 
ered, it  would  have  been  66;  for  all  discharged,  28;  and  for 
old  cases,  12.  The  per  cent,  of  deaths  of  all  in  the  Hospital 
would  have  been  4.15 ;   and  of  the  average  number,  7.9. 

By  the  persevering  efforts  of  the  Assistant  Physicians,  Drs. 
Bemis  and  Smith,  the  patients  have  this  year  enjoyed,  in  walks, 
in  amusements  and  freedom  on  their  parole  of  honor  out  of 
doors,  greater  indulgence  than  ever  before.  They  have  been 
enabled  to  do  so,  in  part,  because  the  grounds  this  year  about 
the  building  have  been  protected  by  fences  for  the  first  time. 
Intruders  have  been  kept  off,  and  our  quiet  people  could  sit 
and  stroll  about  this  hill  pleasant  days  unmolested.  Far  less 
mechanical  restraint  has  been  used  than  was  formerly  deemed 
absolutely  necessary.  Amusements  of  various  kinds,  as 
walking,  riding,  working,  reading,  writing,  music  and  games, 
have  been  put  in  requisition  to  arouse  the  listless  minds  of 
the  inactive,  and  to  bring  into  a  healthy  channel  the  wander- 
ing thoughts  of  the  deluded. 

We  are  under  great  obligation  to  the  proprietors  for  the 
following  periodicals,  for  which  we  can  make  them  in  return 
only  this  acknowledgment,  and  express  the  gratitude  of  our 
patients  who  are  made  happy  in  their  perusal :  The  Daily 
Advertiser,  Evening  Gazette,  Olive  Branch,  Puritan  Recorder, 
Christian  Witness,  Church  Advocate,  Youth's  Companion, 
Monthly  Religious  Magazine,  Zion's  Herald,  New  England 
Farmer,  Prisoner's  Friend,  from  Boston ;  Register,  Essex 
County  Gazette  and  Advertiser,  from  Salem ;  Old  Colony 
Memorial,  Plymouth  ;  Lynn  News,  Lynn ;  Assistant  of  the 
Ministry  at  Large,  Roxbury ;  Gospel  Messenger,  Utica,  N.  Y. ; 
Democrat,  Taunton  ;  iEgis,  Spy,  Palladium  and  Journal,  Wor- 
cester ;  Courant,  Clinton  ;  and  some  papers  and  books  from 
several  friends  of  the  Hospital. 

The  stated  daily  and  weekly  religious  services  here  have 
been  continued  by  the  able  Chaplain  who  has  so  long  been 
with  us.  These  services,  besides  promoting  something  of  re- 
ligious growth  in  the  hearts  of  all,  are  among  the  moral  means 
by  which  the  insane  as  well  as  the  sane  become  habituated  to

STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL. 


[Jan. 


the  rules  of  order  and  decorum.  Former  associations  are 
awakened  in  their  minds,  which  'allay  the  restless  feelings  of 
the  insane,  and  help  them  to  keep  in  subjection  their  wandering 
thoughts.  They  are  the  occasion  of  some  happiness  and 
activity  on  the  Sabbath,  and  they  mark  the  hour  of  repose  at 
night. 

The  patients  assist  in  the  various  departments  of  the  Hos- 
pital, and  their  services  are  valuable  for  what  they  perform, 
and  still  more  valuable  in  its  effects  upon  their  own  health. 
Some  thirty  have  regular  daily  duties  assigned  them  out  of 
the  wards;  and,  when  there  is  any  extra  job  on  hand,  as  many 
more  are  often  taken  out  into  the  fields  and  shops  by  the  sev- 
eral assistants.  The  attendants  are  assisted  in  the  wards,  in 
the  care  of  them,  in  sewing  and  knitting,  by  a  hundred  or 
more  of  the  patients.  But  still  there  is  a  great  want  here  of 
some  kind  of  mechanical  labor,  at  which  considerable  numbers 
could  be  engaged  without  danger  to  themselves,  that  would  be 
both  healthful  and  pleasant  in  its  performance. 

The  farm  and  garden  have  yielded  full  returns  for  the  labor 
bestowed,  as  the  following  estimate  of  the  crops  by  the  Stew- 
ard will  show : — 


Apples,  95  bushels  at  40c, 
Cherries,  20  bushels  at  $2.00, 
Com,  sweet,  in  ears,  80  bushels  at  50c. 
Beans,  7  bushels  at  $2.00,      . 
Beets,  162  bushels, 
Cabbage  heads,  1,800  at  5  cents  each, 
Cucumbers,  85  bushels  at  50c, 
Turnips,  105  bushels  at  25c, 
Tomatoes,  50  bushels  at  40c, 
Onions,  145  bushels  at  50c,    . 
Squashes,  3,583  lbs.  at  2c,     . 
Peas,  30  bushels  at  $1.00, 
Milk,  41,050  quarts  at  3lc,     . 
Beef,  8,434  lbs.  at  7c,     . 
Pork,  14,578  lbs.  at  8c,  .

And  for  wintering  or  fattening  the  stock  on  hand,  of  4  horses, 
2  oxen,  24  cows  and  122  swine  : — 

Hay,  44  tons  at  $20.00, $880  00

I  cheerfully  acknowledge  the  ready  cooperation  of  the  sev- 
eral persons  employed  in  this  institution  in  carrying  forward 
the  great  purpose  of  this  charity.  The  duties  of  those  in  the 
immediate  attendance  on  the  insane  are  perplexing,  and  often 
arduous,  and,  when  faithfully  discharged,  can  be  fully  remu- 
nerated only  by  an  approving  conscience.  We  have  been  for- 
tunate in  acquiring  and  sustaining  a  high  tone  of  moral  and 
intellectual  excellence  in  the  attendants  and  assistants. 

Persons  devoted  exclusively  to  the  care  and  attendance 
on  the  insane  are  : — 

Males, 13 

Females,  .         . 18 — 31 

Persons  employed  in  the  various  departments  to  work 
with  and  give  exercise  to  the  insane  are  :— 

Males, 17 

Females,  .         .         .         .         .         .         .         .  *      18—35

The  term  of  their  services  varies  from  several  causes.  About 
one-third  leave  yearly.  Some,  from  the  length  of  time  and 
their  devotion  to  it,  become  identified  with  its  reputation. 
Those  best  adapted  to  their  stations  generally  remain  longest. 

To  each  of  the  members  of  your  Board,  who  have  been  ever 
ready  to  advise  and  assist  me,  and  who  have  been  active  and 
zealous  in  promoting  the  best  interests  of  the  insane,  I  am 
glad  of  this  opportunity  to  express  my  obligations  and  my 
gratitude.     The   services  of  your  Board  have  been  rendered 


86  STATE  LUNATIC  HOSPITAL.  [Jan. 

without  pecuniary  compensation,  and  visits  of  business  to,  and 
inspection  of,  the  Hospital,  by  some  or  all  of  its  members, 
have  been  frequent.  The  book  of  Monthly  Visits  shows  that 
no  month  since  the  institution  was  opened  has  passed  without 
a  record  of  such  a  visit  having  been  made.  Thirty-seven  times 
have  you  been  at  this  Hospital  the  past  year,  besides  your 
meetings  of  business  elsewhere. 

Most  respectfully, 

Your  obedient  servant, 

GEORGE  CHANDLER.
