TRUSTEES' REPORT.

To His Excellency the Governor

and the Honorable Council of the Gor)imonweaUh :

The trustees beg leave to present their sixth annual
report of the Asylum for the Chronic Insane.

From the nature of the cases of disease here represented,
no very satisfactory results can be expected.

The great mass of patients sent here are afflicted with
physical as well as mental diseases of long continuance and
grave character. The most that can be expected is to make
them comfortable and contented. The whole number of
patients treated during the year was 461, the average num-
ber 384.

The buildings and appurtenances, of more than fifty years
standing, require much to be done to bring them to the
proper standard for a hospital, and this can only be done
gradually while they are occupied. But under the super-
vision of the superintendent great improvements have already
been made and are still going on without calling for extra
appropriation.

The work on the front wall, on Summer Street, is now
completed to the satisfaction of the trustees, and the im-
provement in the street, by adding fifteen feet to its width,
is valuable to the asylum as well as to the city.

The patients are well supplied with all the comforts they
require. There are few complaints, but with some there is
the desire to go home, where they have no homes to go to,
or to be with friends, who have ceased to exist.

70 ASYLUM FOR CHRONIC INSANE. [Oct.

It is painful to witness such a number of cases of loss of
all the faculties ; only a mere animal existence remaining,
but everything that can contribute to their comfort or to
ameliorate their sad condition is faithfully done by the
superintendent and his assistants.

By the treasurer's report, the amount received for board
is sufficient to defray the expenses and leave a small surplus
for contingencies.

The average cost of each patient was $3.04 a week.

The undersigned has this day carefully compared the Treasurer's statement of
expenditures for the year ending Sept. 30, 1883, with the vouchers which are on file

Auditor of Accounts,

74 ASYLUM FOR CHRONIC INSANE. [Oct.

SUPERmTENDENT'S BEPOET.

To the Trustees of the Asylum for the Chronic Itisane.

Gentlemen, — There remained in the asylum at the
close of the last official year, 381 patients, — 190 males
and 191 females.

During the year 51 males and 29 females were admitted ;
6 males and 2 females were discharged, and 37 males and
24 females died ; leaving at the end of the year 392 pa-
tients,— 198 males and 194 females.

Of the number discharged, three males and one female
were removed to poor-houses, two males and one female
were taken home by friends, and one male eloped.

The asylum has been filled during the most of the year to
its utmost limit, and at times has been overcrowded on the
female side of the house. Its nominal capacity has always
been placed at about 400 patients ; but we only have, as
accommodations for this number, 124 single rooms and 65
dormitory beds on the male side of the house ; while on
the female there are but 113 single rooms and 55 dormi-
tory beds, — making in all 357 beds. With anything
above this latter number, therefore, we may be said to
be crowded, since we are obliged to find sleeping
accommodations for the surplus in hall-beds upon the
corridors of the wards. Although this is always unde-
sirable when it can be avoided, no serious harm can
result from thus moderately increasing the capacity of our
insane hospitals, since such accommodations are not al-
together unsuitable for a limited number of the quietly
demented. Nearly all of this class, however, has been
culled from the asylum by the overseers of the poor, leav-

1883.] PUBLIC DOCUMENT — No. 23. 75

iiig very few for whom such accommodations are either
suitable or safe.

Many of our patients, bereft of relatives and friends, and
broken down both in mind and body, have found in the
asylum a home which they appreciate, and they neither seek
or desire a change. They come and go at will, do what-
ever work they are able to do, indulge in their little freaks
and peculiarities unmolested ; and finding the burden of their
lives relieved — in so far as it is capable of relief — are un-
complaining and happy.

These could undoubtedly be as well cared for in private
families as at the hospital ; but if their own wishes were
consulted, they would, in most cases, prefer to stay among
others of their kind, where their peculiarities attract no
comment. The large majority of our patients are, how-
ever, of quite a different class, and under no system could
they be farmed out upon the community. Many of them,
from their extreme filthy habits, require almost constant
attention ; while the greater number would be dangerous
members of society if at large.

The large death-rate of the past year has been due en-
tirely to causes inherent in the mental and physical condi-
tion of the patients themselves, and in no way to epidemic
or an unsanitary state of the asylum. We receive no pa-
tients from the general public, and only such from the other
hospitals as by longer or shorter residence have been found
to be almost beyond question incurable. Under this ar-
rangement the most unpromising cases, both as regards their
mental and physical condition, naturally gravitate from the
other hospitals to the asylum ; and we should expect to find
in these transfers but few strong and able-bodied persons.
Such, indeed, is the fact ; a large majority of these transfers
being mere wrecks of humanity at the time of their en-
trance,— broken down by mental suffering, or in an ad-
vanced stage of incurable physical disease.

As a consequence, our death-rate, although likely to vary
greatly from year to year, will of necessity always be large.
No skill or form of treatment can long avert the fjital end ;
and all that the best-directed efforts can do is, by kindly
attention and careful nursing, to alleviate the sufferings of

76 ASYLUM FOR CHRONIC INSANE. [Oct.

these unfortunates, and smooth their path to the grave.
Such patients are easily afiected by sudden climatic changes,
— the protracted cold of the winter, and the heat and drouth
of our summer months, always proving fatal to a greater or
less number.

Of the 61 deaths, 22 have been due to phthisis; 21 to
exhaustion of chronic mania ; 7 to epilepsy ; 2 to paralysis ;
3 to general paresis ; and 1 each to uremia, pyemia, cir-
rhosis, senility, heart disease, and dj^sentery.

During the year, repairs and alterations in the wards have
been continued, the plumbing in the administration building
renewed, two new boilers put in, our entire heating ap-
paratus overhauled, and twenty thousand feet of steam pipe
bought to replace that now in our air chamber.

We have also added a new Shaker washing-machine to our
laundry, and a sixty-gallon tea and coffee urn to our kitchen
furniture, and furnished the entire house with woven wire
mattresses.

There is still much to be done in the way of alteraticms
and repairs before the asylum can be said to be in a perfect
sanitary condition, but every year, from its opening in
1877 to the present time, a large portion of our income has
been devoted to this purpose, and it is safe to say that the
hygienic condition of the house has never been better than
it is to-day. During a greater portion of the year our reser-
voir gives us an abundance of pure water, and as our pipes
are connected with the city service we have at all times an
unfailing supply. Our drains have been relaid, one-half of
our water closets and bath-rooms have been torn out, en-
larged, rebuilt and thoroughly ventilated, and a plan
adopted for the ventilation of the wards which is being
carried out as rapidly as our means will warrant.

The garden has not only given us an abundant supply of
vegetables through the season, but has furnished work for
many of the patients, while more have found employment in the
extensive grading on the front of the asylum grounds, made
necessary by the relocation of our wall in the widening of
Summer Street. We find no difficulty in giving employment
to every one of our patients who is willing and able to work.

1883.] PUBLIC DOCUMENT — No. 23. 77

In fact, our great difficulty is in finding laborers enough to
carry on the daily duties of the household.

There have been very few additions to our working force,
among the late transfers, and as our older hands, upon whom
we have depended for much of the labor in the various
mechanical departments of the asylum, are gradually drop-
ping out of the ranks, we find it difficult to fill their places.
Our working force, at best, varies greatly from day to day,
being governed entirely by the changing mental and physical
state of the patient.

Although we compel no one to work, we use every efibrt
to persuade them to do so, however little their labor may be
worth. As a matter of fact it is worth but very little save to
the patient himself. A record of the number of days' work
performed would be misleading, as, save in very exceptional
cases, it would not mean a day's work in the ordinary sense,
but simply that the patient had been more or less employed
during the time specified, nor would it necessarily mean
that anything had been added thereby lo the income of the
asylum, for in a majority of cases it actually costs more for
necessary supervision than the work itself is worth.

We still find it difficult to secure competent attendants, or
keep them when secured, and especially on the male side of
the house. There has been no lack of applicants for vacant
places, but the material from which we have been obliged to
select during the last two years has been poor in quality, and
as a consequence changes have been frequent, a short trial
having sufficed in many cases to prove the entire ineffi-
ciency of the person employed.

The majority of our employes, however, have been worthy
people. They have remained with us a reasonable time,
although not as long, in many cases, as I could wish, and by
their fidelity to duty and length of service may justly be
classed as trained attendants. To them is due whatever
credit this institution may have gained for the perfect clean-
liness of its wards and the personal neatness of its patients.
Such a condition implies constant care and attention on the
part of the attendant, as any neglect — not to say habitual,
but even for a day — cannot be covered up at short notice for
the purposes of official inspection. The duties of an attend-

78 ASYLUM FOR CHRONIC INSANE. [Oct. '83.

ant are extremely exacting and often repulsive, and as the
characteristics which insure success here can always command
generous remuneration in other and more desirable occupa-
tions, we cannot expect young men and women having such
characteristics to remain long in a position which offers but
little more pay than that demanded by the day laborer.

November 1, Mr. C. R. Macoraber, who had held the
position of clerk at the asylum since its opening, was ap-
pointed steward by your honorable board. He has since
tilled both offices to my entire satisfaction, and by his gentle-
manly bearing and careful attention to the duties assigned
him, has gained the good will of our entire household. .

In Mr. Wra. C. Townsend, carpenter, who left the ser-
vice of the asylum September 1, this institution has lost a
model employe, and every one in it a personal friend. A
skilled mechanic, his whole time and his best efforts were
always at the service of the asylum.

To him belonofs in a great measure the credit for the thor-
ough and economical manner in which our repairs have been
carried on.

STATISTICAL TABLES.

TABLES FOR UOTFORM STATISTICS

MASSACHUSETTS HOSPITALS AND ASYLUMS

FOR THE INSANE.

(Approved by the Board of Health, Lunacy, and Charity, April 3, 1880.)

By the act of the legislature establishing an Asylum for
the Chronic Insane, it was provided, "That the inmates
thereof shall consist only of such chronic insane as may be
transferred thereto by the Board of State Charities in the
manner provided in section four, chapter two hundred and
forty, of the acts of the year eighteen hundred and sixty
three." (Statutes, 1877, chap. 227.)

All the patients of the asylum, therefore, have been former
inmates of one or more hospitals in the State ; and whenever
in these tables they appear as " first admissions," they are
only to be regarded as first admissions to this asylum.
