TRUSTEES'  REPORT. 


To  his  Excellency  the  Governor,  and  the  Honorable  Council  of  the  Common- 
wealth. 

The  Trustees  of  the  Worcester  Lunatic  Hospital  respect- 
fully submit  their  Forty-ninth  Annual  Report. 

The  principles  which  must  govern  the  management  of  a 
great  public  hospital,  in  respect  of  its  financial  system  and 
modes  of  business  operation,  are  much  the  same  as  those 
that  govern  a  well-conducted  corporation  seeking  a  favora- 
ble result  for  its  stockholders.  The  Trustees  are  the  direc- 
tors, responsible  to  the  owners  for  the  results  of  the  business. 
The  Superintendent  is  their  agent,  responsible  to  them  and 
to  no  one  else.  The  Trustees  appoint  other  officials,  who  are 
responsible  to  them.  Attendants  and  supervisors  are  ap- 
pointed by  the  Superintendent,  and  responsible  to  him.  But 
to  the  State,  the  owner  of  the  property,  the  Trustees  are 
alone  responsible  for  its  profitable  use  and  safe  preservation ; 
and  this  responsibility  they  cannot  evade,  nor  shift  any  por- 
tion of  it  upon  the  shoulders  of  any  other  person.  Suitable 
incumbents  of  all  subordinate  positions  must  be  found  and 
employed ;  economy  must  be  insisted  on  and  waste  stayed ; 
the  details  of  every  expense  must  be  critically  analyzed  and 
audited  with  intelligence  and  independence.  Whatever  may 
be  the  income  of  the  institution,  its  ordinary  expenses  must 
be  kept  within  it,  a  moderate  surplus  fund  maintained  as  a 
provision  for  extraordinary  contingencies,  and  the  necessity 
of  applying  to  the  State  for  special  appropriations  avoided. 
The  report  of  the  Treasurer,  herewith  submitted,  tends  to 


6  WORCESTER   LUNATIC   HOSPITAL.       [Oct. 

show  that  the  Trustees  have  endeavored  to  apply  these  prin- 
ciples to  the  management  of  the  business  and  finances  of 
the  institution  during  the  year  just  closed,  and  with  a  rea- 
sonable measure  of  success. 

The  Trustees  ask  nothing  of  the  State  in  the  way  of  appro- 
priations, unless  it  shall  be  found  expedient  to  act  on  the 
recommendation  of  Dr.  Park  with  reference  to  water  supply, 
nor  have  they  any  recommendation  to  make  in  view  of  the 
operations  of  this  year.  Patients  can  be  supported  in  this 
hospital,  in  reasonable  comfort,  at  the  rate  paid  for  public 
patients  under  existing  law,  with  the  help  of  the  income 
derived  from  private  patients,  for  whose  comfortable  mainte- 
nance, as  well  as  for  that  of  public  patients,  the  policy  of  the 
State  has  designed  these  institutions.  They  are  not  pauper 
establishments.  They  are  intended  to  furnish  a  comfortable 
home,  not  only  for  the  penniless  and  harmless,  but  for  per- 
sons of  moderate  or  ample  means  whom  this  greatest  of 
misfortunes  shall  have  overtaken.  Unless  a  considerable 
advance  shall  take  place  in  the  price  of  the  necessaries  of 
life,  the  Trustees  expect  to  carry  the  institution  through  the 
coming  twelve  months  upon  its  ordinary  income,  without 
encroaching  on  its  moderate  surplus.  Should  extraordinary 
emergency  arise,  that  surplus  will  be  somewhat  reduced. 

The  extraordinary  expenses  during  the  past  year  have  been 
for  the  very  complete  fire  protection,  described  in  the  report 
of  the  Superintendent,  the  erection  of  an  ice-house,  and  for 
preparing  the  upper  stories  for  occupancy,  and  painting  the 
wards,  as  also  therein  described.  The  surplus  fund  has  been 
reduced,  in  consequence  of  these  expenses,  about  ten  thou- 
sand dollars. 

In  reference  to  the  success  of  the  institution  during  the 
past  year,  in  the  treatment  of  mental  disease  and  the  mitiga- 
tion of  its  woes,  it  may  be  said  that  the  results  have  been, 
upon  the  whole,  satisfactory.  They  will  be  found,  set  forth 
with  full  detail,  in  the  report  of  the  Superintendent  and  the 
accompanying  tables. 

The  medical  staff  has  the  confidence  of  the  Trustees. 
Dr.  Park,  whose  studious  life  and  unremitting  devotion  to 
these  duties  for  the  past  seven  years  have  earned  for  him 
a  high  position  in  the  ranks  of  alienists,  at  the  request  of  the 
Board,  took  a  vacation  of  nearly  three  months,  and  visited, 


1881.]  PUBLIC   DOCUMENT  — No.  23.  7 

during  his  short  trip  abroad,  some  of  the  best  institutions  of 
Europe,  and  brought  back  with  him  renewed  vigor  in  our 
service,  and  large  resources  of  illustration  and  suggestion. 
During  his  absence,  Dr.  Moulton,  with  the  aid  and  co-oper- 
ation of  the  local  Trustees,  filled  the  position  of  Acting- 
Superintendent  with  a  diligence,  fidelity,  and  intelligence 
which  challenged  our  respect  and  strengthened  him  in  our 
confidence.  Dr.  Peabody's  labors  have  also  been  wholly 
satisfactory. 

In  its  relations  with  the  public  and  the  community  to 
which  the  Trustees  are  responsible,  the  institution  has  been 
at  peace.  All  its  operations  are  conducted  in  the  sight  of  all 
men  who  will  take  the  trouble  to  look  on,  and  follow  their 
inception  and  progress.  No  intelligent  and  orderly  citizen  of 
Massachusetts  who  desires  to  visit  this  property,  of  which  he 
is  joint  owner  with  others,  is  deprived  of  the  opportunity  of 
doing  so  and  inspecting  it  in  all  its  parts,  subject,  of  course, 
to  reasonable  regulations  as  to  days  and  hours.  There  are 
no  dark  cells  or  secret  chambers,  and  day-light,  in  every  sense 
in  which  that  term  is  used,  pervades  every  department  of  the 
institution.  The  trustees  invite  the  sympathy  and  co-opera- 
tion of  the  government  and  their  fellow-citizens  in  the 
endeavor  to  place  and  keep  this  hospital  in  the  front  rank  of 
all  the  public  institutions  established  for  a  similar  purpose 
throughout  the  world.

12  WORCESTER   LUNATIC    HOSPITAL.       [Oct. 


SUPERINTENDENT'S   REPORT. 


To  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  the   Worcester  Lunatic  Hospital. 

Gentlemen,  —  I  respectfully  submit  the  following  Forty- 
ninth  Annual  Report  of  the  Worcester  Lunatic  Hospital. 

There  were  in  the  hospital  Sept.  30,  1880,  233  males  and 
300  females,  a  total  of  533. 

The  number  of  admissions  has  been  145  males  and  104 
females,  a  total  of  249 ;  making  the  whole  number  of  cases 
under  treatment  during  the  year  782.  The  number  of  ad- 
missions represents  237  persons,  15  more  than  during  the 
previous  year;  twelve  being  re-admissions  of  persons  who 
had  been  discharged  during  the  year. 

Eleven  females  were  transferred  from  the  Danvers  Lunatic 
Hospital  and  four  from  the  State  Almshouse  at  Tewksbury. 

Twenty  males  were  transferred  from  the  Taunton  Lunatic 
Hospital. 

The  number  of  recoveries  has  been  54,  or  21.68  per  cent 
of  the  admissions.  Fourteen  of  this  number,  however,  had 
been  inmates  of  this  hospital  before ;  twelve  of  whom  had 
been  discharged  recovered,  one  nine  times,  one  six  times, 
one  four  times,  two  three  times,  one  twice,  and  six  once  each  ; 
one  had  been  discharged  improved  and  one  not  improved. 
A  review  of  insane  hospital  statistics  upon  this  subject  of 
recoveries,  as  tabulated  in  the  annual  reports  of  the  institu- 
tions, has  brought  of  late  to  public  notice  the  fact  that  a  per- 
son afflicted  with  insanity  is  quite  liable  to  a  second  and  sub- 
sequent attacks,  and  that  a  relapse,  or  an  attack  de  novo, 
occurs  in  this  malady  more  frequently  than  in  any  of  the 
other  serious  forms  of  disease. 

Now,  although  it  may  be  a  question  upon  which  there  may 
be  honest  differences  of  opinion  whether  each  case  which 
recovers  may  not  be  fairly  called  a  cure,  even  if  the  patient 
has  a  second  attack  within  a  few  months  or  a  year,  there  can 


1881.]  PUBLIC   DOCUMENT  — No.  23.  13 

be  no  doubt  that  the  public  have  been  hitherto  widely  misled 
as  to  the  meaning  of  the  word  "  recovery,"  as  used  in  the 
hospital  reports,  and  as  to  the  permanency  of  cures  from 
insanity.  Not  a  small  number  of  patients  who  were  dis- 
charged recovered  in  the  earlier  reports  of  this  hospital  have 
many  times  since  become  a  burden  to  the  public  or  private 
purse  by  reason  of  a  return  of  their  malady. 

In  order  to  obtain  definite  information  on  this  point  the 
following  circular  has  been  prepared,  making  inquiry  about 
the  subsequent  mental  condition  of  those  patients  who  were 
discharged  from  this  institution  as  recovered  on  their  only 
admission,  and  of  those  who  recovered  on  their  last  re-admis- 
sion :  — 

Dear  Sir, — I  would  esteem  it  a  great  favor  if  you  would  send  me 
answers  to  the  following  questions  (obtained  either  from  personal  knowl- 
edge or  as  the  result  of  inquiry)  relating  to of ,  a  patient 

discharged  from  this  institution 18 — . 

Did remain  well? 

Has ever  been  in   any  hospital  for  the  insane,  or  almshouse, 

since  leaving  Worcester? 

If  so,  where?  How  many  times?  How  long  a  time?  and  state  of 
health  after  discharge. 

If  living,  where?  and  mental  condition. 

If  dead,  date  and  cause  of  death. 

Did die  at  home,  in  hospital,  or  almshouse? 

What  was mental  condition  at  time  of  death? 

If  you  are  unable  to  answer  these  questions,  will  you  be  kind  enough 
to  give  me  the  address  of  some  member  of  the  family  or  acquaintance 
who  would  be  likely  to  possess  the  desired  information?  The  object  of 
my  inquiry  is  to  perfect  the  medical  history  of  the  hospital. 

Very  respectfully, 

JOHN  G.  PARK, 

Superintende  nt . 

The  above  inquiries  have,  to  this  date,  been  made  regard- 
ing only  211  patients,  all  of  whom  were  discharged  previous 
to  1840.  Owing  to  the  time  which  has  elapsed  since  their 
connection  with  the  hospital  great  difficulty  has  been  experi- 
enced in  finding  anybody  who  knew  or  remembered  anything 
about  many  of  them.  Satisfactory  answers  have,  however, 
been  received  in  ninety-four  instances  thus  far,  and,  as  the 
cases  become  more  recent,  a  much  greater  per  cent  of  replies 
is  expected. 


14  WORCESTER   LUNATIC   HOSPITAL.       [Oct. 

Of  these  94  patients,  3  men  and  5  women,  who  remained 
well  after  their  discharge,  are  still  living ;  26  men  and  14 
women  remained  well  as  long  as  they  lived ;  24  men  and  21 
women  became  again  insane,  and  of  this  number  seven  com- 
mitted suicide,  and  ten  have  been  inmates  of  other  hospitals. 

The  average  duration  of  the  insanity  of  patients  received 
during  the  year  before  their  commitment  is,  of  males,  three 
years  and  three  months,  and  of  females,  three  years  and 
eleven  months.  The  average  duration  of  insanity  before 
admission  of  those  who  recovered  during  the  year,  of  known 
cases,  is,  of  males,  six  months,  females,  five  and  nine-tenths 
months ;  of  private  charges,  four  and  two-tenths  months ; 
of  public  charges,  six  and  eight-tenths  months. 

The  early  removal  of  the  insane,  after  the  approach  of  the 
disease,  to  establishments  especially  provided  for  them,  has 
for  years  been  recommended  by  a  majority  of  alienists. 

As  the  public,  sadly  enough  ignorant  of  the  nature  of  in- 
sanity as  it  is,  and  too  prone  to  consider  it  a  disgrace  rather 
than  a  disease,  becomes  more  enlightened  and  more  conver- 
sant with  its  symptoms  and  management,  the  necessity  of  the 
immediate  removal  of  patients  to  a  hospital  becomes  less 
apparent.  The  exception,  however,  must  be  made  of  the 
poorer  classes,  who  are  not  able  to  bear  the  extra  burden  of 
an  unproductive  member  in  their  household ;  and  I  am  still 
strongly  of  the  opinion  that  a  general  knowledge  of  the 
treatment  of  mental  diseases  has  not  yet  spread  far  enough 
to  sanction  the  removal  of  any  of  the  insane  poor  from  their 
homes  or  the  hospital  to  the  town  almshouse. 

Eleven  convicts  have  been  transferred  from  the  State 
Prison  at  Concord,  and  three  females  from  the  Reformatory 
Prison  at  Sherborn,  and  three  men  from  Deer  Island. 

Of  the  transfer  from  Taunton,  two  were  from  the  State 
Prison  and  six  from  the  House  of  Correction.  Ten  men  and 
one  woman  were  received  from  jails  and  houses  of  correction. 

The  large  number  of  commitments  of  convicts  and  persons 
awaiting  trials  for  various  crimes  suggests  the  necessity  for 
better  provision  for  the  criminal  insane,  and  in  an  institution 
by  themselves. 

The  subject,  however,  has  been  already  considered  by  the 
State,  with  that  philanthropic  spirit  which  guards  with  zeal- 
ous care  the  poor  and  unfortunate,  and  provides  so  liberally 


1881.]  PUBLIC   DOCUMENT  — No.  23.  15 

for  their  comfort  and  happiness.  The  Commonwealth,  at  the 
last  session  of  the  Legislature,  instructed  the  Board  of  Health, 
Lunacy,  and  Charity  to  report  a  plan  for  the  better  manage- 
ment of  the  criminal  insane.  This  Board,  fully  alive  to  the 
necessities  of  the  case,  have  given  the  subject  much  and  care- 
ful attention ;  and,  while  the  plan  recommended,  if  adopted 
by  the  Legislature,  very  likely  will  not  be  the  best,  it  can  but 
be  a  step  forward,  and,  after  trial,  its  weak  points  can  be 
strengthened  and  its  defects  remedied.  I  think  that  the  plan 
should  include  provision  at  the  same  place  for  the  danger- 
ously homicidal  patients  who  are  not  criminals.  With  these 
two  classes  removed  from  our  hospitals  for  insane,  greater 
liberty  could  be  given  those  who  remain. 

It  cannot  be  stated  with  too  much  emphasis  that  there  is 
not  a  lunatic  hospital  in  the  State  suitable  for  the  safe  cus- 
tody of  the  criminal  insane  as  a  class  ;  and,  if  for  no  other  or 
higher  ground,  the  safety  of  the  public  demands  that  more 
secure  quarters  should  be  provided  for  them. 

A  short  visit,  during  the  past  summer,  to  some  of  the  best 
Scotch  and  English  asylums  furnished  me  an  opportunity  of 
comparing  their  structures  and  methods  of  management  with 
our  own. 

Let  me  state  very  briefly  a  few  of  my  impressions. 

First,  as  to  the  plan  of  construction  of  their  institutions. 

The  newer  Scotch  and  English  county  asylums  have  for 
the  most  part  but  two  stories  :  the  first  floor  being  occupied 
by  the  patients  during  the  day-time,  and  the  second  story  at 
night  only.  The  temperate  climate  not  requiring  such  ex- 
tensive and  costly  excavation  for  cellars  and  basements,  or 
such  elaborate  and  expensive  heating  apparatus,  the  original 
construction  account  is  much  less  than  with  us ;  and  as  the 
sun  rarely  shines  in  England  unobscured,  the}*-  are  enabled  to 
use  a  great  amount  of  glass  in  their  roofs ;  indeed,  the  day- 
rooms  and  dining-rooms,  with  their  hanging  baskets,  running 
vines  and  ferns,  resemble  conservatories  more  than  asylum 
apartments. 

Wings,  additions,  and  projections  are  thrown  out  from  the 
main  structure  wherever  a  special  object  is  to  be  gained, 
without  any  regard  to  architectural  symmetry,  or  fear  of 
violating  the  traditional  plans  of  hospital  construction  which 
we  follow  so  closely.     By  this  means,  sunny  rooms,  cheerful 


16  WORCESTER   LUNATIQ  HOSPITAL.       [Oct. 

infirmary  wards,  and  pleasant  workshops  are  provided  at 
small  cost. 

The  patients  themselves  are  much  more  generally  employed 
than  with  us.  In  fact,  their  asylums  are  great  workhouses, 
and  the  idleness  and  listlessness,  which  are  such  sad  features 
in  many  of  our  wards,  are  noticeable  by  their  absence.  There 
are  many  obstacles  in  the  way  of  compelling  our  patients  to 
do  the  amount  of  work  which  theirs  do.  In  the  first  place, 
the  friends  of  patients  unwisely  object,  and  are  unwilling  to 
consider  occupation  as  a  means  of  treatment,  except  as  ill- 
treatment,  while  the  patients  themselves,  not  having  the  habit 
of  obedience  born  in  them,  either  flatly  refuse  advice  in  this 
direction,  or  perhaps  wish  to  argue  the  point.  I  trust  that 
both  of  these  objections  may  be  lessened  or  entirely  removed 
in  time.  For  climatic  reasons,  we  never  shall  be  able  to  em- 
ploy our  patients  as  much  out-of-doors  as  is  done  in  Great 
Britain. 

One  of  the  best  asylums  I  visited  had  no  locks  upon  any 
of  its  wards.  Its  superintendent  is  an  enthusiastic  agricul- 
turist and  a  non-believer  in  the  use  of  medicine  in  the  treat- 
ment of  mental  diseases.  All  of  his  male  patients  who  can 
walk  are  out  every  day,  and  most  of  them  at  work  on  the 
well-tilled  farm  of  the  institution.  It  seemed  to  me  that 
there  was  a  little  fallacy  about  the  doors  with  no  locks.  It 
does  not  mean  liberty  to  all  the  patients  to  go  out  and  in  at 
will ;  but,  on  the  other  hand,  those  who  were  least  fitted  to 
pass  out,  and  for  that  reason  the  most  anxious  to  avail  them- 
selves of  the  privilege,  were  confined  to  a  corner  of  the  room 
most  distant  from  the  door,  or  to  a  somewhat  narrow  space 
between  the  wall  and  some  article  of  furniture,  and  so  their 
movements  were  really  restricted  to  a  smaller  area  than 
would  have  been  the  case  had  the  opening  of  the  door  been 
beyond  their  control. 

As  much,  if  not  more,  is  done  by  us  in  the  way  of  amuse- 
ments and  entertainments.  Our  diet  is  more  varied  and  our 
beds  better.  The  amount  of  mechanical  restraint  used  is  less 
than  in  American  hospitals,  and  the  number  of  padded  rooms 
greater.  A  much  larger  proportion  of  patients  occupy  dor- 
mitories in  English  asylums  than  with  us,  One  of  the  in- 
ferences, and  perhaps  the  most  natural  one,  to  be  drawn  from 


1881.]  PUBLIC    DOCUMENT— No.  23.  17 

this  is  that  they  have  a  smaller  class  of  noisy  and  refractory 
patients  than  we  do. 

Finally,  in  their  relations  to  the  general  public  the  foreign 
asylums  are  more  fortunate  than  our  own  in  possessing  to  a 
greater  degree  the  confidence  of  the  public. 

The  present  water-supply  of  the  hospital  is  derived  from 
Bell  Pond,  which  contains  eleven  acres,  and  is  about  sixty 
feet  above  the  first  story  of  the  building. 

This  pond  was  originally  a  swamp,  across  the  lowest  part 
of  which  an  embankment  was  built  by  the  city  to  retain  the 
water  which  flows  into  it  from  the  surrounding  hills.  Dur- 
ing the  dry  season  the  pond  is  quite  shallow,  and  becomes 
filled  with  vegetable  growths  which  are  decomposed  by  the 
summer  sun.  At  such  times  the  water  is  distributed  over 
the  house  loaded  with  impurities  which  are  offensive  both  to 
sight  and  smell.  The  drainage  from  two  tenement-houses  on 
the  western  border  also  runs  directly  into  the  pond. 

While  no  disease  has  thus  far  been  traced  to  the  use  of 
this  water,  the  presence  of  the  objectionable  features  men- 
tioned cause  much  complaint  from  the  inmates,  and,  although 
the  city  is  willing  to  draw  off  the  water  and  clean  out  the 
basin,  I  doubt  whether  any  permanent  satisfactory  results 
would  follow.  I  therefore  respectfully  recall  to  your  atten- 
tion the  project  of  obtaining  our  water-supply  from  Lake 
Quinsigamond,  bjr  pumping.  The  amount  paid  to  the  city  of 
Worcester  for  water  during  the  past  year  has  been  $2,212.91. 

During  the  year  the  hospital  has  been  encircled  by  about 
twenty-eight  hundred  feet  of  eight-inch  water-pipe  for  an 
additional  fire  protection,  to  which  have  been  connected 
fourteen  hydrants  from  the  Chapman  Valve  Company's 
works.  Each  hydrant  has  two,  two-and-a-half  inch  outlets 
for  hose,  and  one  four-and-a-half  inch  outlet  for  the  attach- 
ment of  the  city  steamers.  A  Knowles  steam  fire-pump,  No. 
G,  capable  of  furnishing  six  streams  at  a  pressure  of  ninety 
pounds  at  the  hose  nozzles,  completes  the  system.  This  pump 
is  supplied  with  steam  directly  through  a  four-inch  pipe  from 
two  large  boilers,  and  is  ready  for  use  at  all  times,  both  night 
and  day.  At  the  experimental  trial  of  this  pump,  in  the 
presence  of  the  engineers  of  the  Worcester  Fire  Department, 
the  result  was  declared  to  be  perfectly  satisfactory.  There 
are,  in  addition,  seven  four-inch  stand-pipes  within  the  build- 
3 


18  WORCESTER   LUNATIC    HOSPITAL.       [Oct. 

ing  and  three  thousand  feet  of  linen  hose.  A  hose-carriage, 
with  eight  hundred  feet  of  rubber-lined  hose,  has  been  bought, 
and  the  employes  have  been  assigned  special  duties  in  case  of 
fire,  and  exercised  in  raising  the  ladders  and  laying  the  hose. 
Hand  fire-pumps,  with  buckets  of  water,  are  also  distributed 
through  the  attics  and  basement. 

It  is  believed  that  every  precaution  which  can  be  foreseen 
has  been  taken  to  prevent  the  spread  of  a  conflagration 
should  one  unfortunately  occur.  The  expense  of  this  addi- 
tional system  for  protection  from  fire  has  been  $7,314.46, 
which  has  been  paid  for  from  the  surplus  funds  belonging  to 
the  institution. 

An  ice-house,  thirty-five  by  forty-five  feet,  with  a  capacity 
of  four  hundred  and  fifty  tons,  was  built  during  the  year  and 
filled  with  ice  from  the  lake. 

The  finishing  of  the  fourth  story  of  the  hospital,  mention 
of  which  was  made  in  the  last  report  as  being  in  progress,  has 
been  completed ;  three  sections  on  the  female  side,  and  one 
on  the  male,  are  now  occupied  by  patients.  At  the  close  of 
the  last  year  the  walls  of  sixteen  wards  had  been  painted, 
this  work  has  been  continued  until  three  wards  only  at  the 
present  time  remain  unpainted. 

A  green-house,  a  hundred  feet  by  twenty,  has  also  been 
erected,  and  is  being  stocked  with  plants  for  winter  bloom- 
ing. 

Your  attention  is  called  to  the  very  complete  statistical 
tables  which  accompany  this  report.  The  compilation  of 
these  statistics  involved  a  great  amount  of  labor,  and  it  is 
believed  that  their  accuracy  can  be  depended  upon. 

The  farm  has  continued  during  the  year  to  be  under  the 
successful  management  of  Mr.  F.  M.  Knapp,  jun.  A  list  of 
the  products  of  the  farm  and  garden  is  appended  to  the  table 
of  statistics. 

There  have  been  several  changes  during  the  year  in  the 
corps  of  officers.  Early  in  May,  Dr.  W.  P.  Bowers  felt 
obliged,  on  account  of  ill  health,  to  resign  the  position  of  first 
assistant,  and  the  institution  lost  the  services  of  a  most  faith- 
ful and  competent  officer. 

Dr.  A.  R.  Moulton  was  promoted  to  fill  the  vacancy,  and 
during  my  temporary  absence  took  charge  of  the  affairs  of 
the  hospital  to  your  entire  satisfaction. 


1881.]  PUBLIC   DOCUMENT  — No.  23.  19 

Dr.  Charles  A.  Peabody,  formerly  assistant  physician  at  the 
Asylum  for  the  Chronic  Insane,  was  chosen  to  the  position  of 
second  assistant  in  place  of  Dr.  Moulton. 

Dr.  W.  E.  Sylvester  and  Dr.  Omer  P.  Porter  were  con- 
nected with  the  medical  staff  of  the  institution  for  several 
months  each ;  the  former  leaving  in  April  and  the  latter  in 
September. 

Mr.  Clarence  Buffinton  resigned  the  office  of  steward  in 
January,  and  Mr.  George  L.  Clark  was  elected  to  fill  the 
vacancy. 

In  closing,  I  desire  to  express  my  appreciation  of  the  labors 

of  the  officials  and  employe's  who  have  had  the  interests  of 

the  institution  and  the  welfare  of  the  patients  at  heart,  and 

to  again  acknowledge  the  sense  of  obligation  I  am  under  for 

the  kindness  and  assistance  which  I  continue  to  receive  from 

your  board.
