COMMITTEE  OF  VISITORS 

OF  THE 

Cmnbribgcsjnrc,  f sic  of  <*%,  & gorouglj  of  (Sambr&gt 

PAUPER  LUNATIC  ASYLUM. 


Pubsuant  to  the  62nd  Section  of  the  16th  and  17th  Victoria, 

Chapter  97,  the  Committee  of  Visitors  of  the  above  Asylum, 
beg  to  report  to  Her  Majesty’s  Justices  of  the  Peace  for  the 
County  of  Cambi'idge  and  Isle  of  Ely  respectively,  and 
to  the  Town  Council  of  the  Borough  of  Cambridge,  as 
follows  : — 

In  January  last,  during  tlie  inspection  of  tlie  Defects  in 
Asylum,  and  tlie  works  then  in  course  of  execution 
by  Messrs.  Eastons  and  Anderson,  Engineers,  Mr. — 
Rowe,  tlie  Asylum  Architect,  observed  several  defects 
in  the  old  iron  tanks  in  the  roofs,  particularly  in  the 
overflow  pipes,  and  other  matters  connected  with 
the  water  supply,  and  also  defects  in  the  Asylum 
tower.  Mr.  Rowe  reported  thereon,  and  his  report 


6 


Plans  for 
enlarging  andi: 
proving  the 
Asylum. 


and  that  ol  Messrs,  Eastons  and  Co.,  on  tlie  several 
matters,  was  referred  to  tlie  Visiting’  Sub-Committee 
ol  the  Asylum,  and  at  tlie  meeting  of  your  Committee 
held  on  the  22nd  of  February  last,  they  recommended 
the  adoption  of  the  Reports  laid  before  them,  and 
your  Committee,  acting  on  that  recommendation, 
ordered  the  work  to  be  carried  out,  viz.,  the 
works  necessary  for  remedying  the  defects  in  the 
apparatus  for  water  supply  and  other  matters,  as 
estimated  by  Messrs.  Eastons  and  Co.,  at  £315,  and 
the  repairs  to  the  tower  at  an  estimated  cost  of  £25. 
In  working  the  New  Boiler,  put  up  by  Messrs. 
Eastons  and  Co.,  it  was  suggested  that  for  economy 
a Tangyes  Special  Steam  Pump  should  be  provided 
for  the  purpose  of  feeding  the  Boiler  with  water 
when  the  large  Boiler  was  required  only  for  supply- 
ing the  Asylum  with  steam,  and  not  for  pumping 
water,  and  this  Engine  has  been  purchased  at  a 
cost  of  £57.  14s.  The  above  works  being  now 
carried  out,  your  Committee  have  to  report  that  the 
Water  and  Steam  Supply  of  the  Asylum  is  satis- 
factory. 

With  regard  to  the  preparation  of  plans  for 
enlarging  the  Asylum  so  as  to  provide  therein 
additional  cubical  space,  as  required  by  the  Com- 
missioners in  Lunacy,  your  Committee,  in  their 
Seventeenth  Report,  stated  that  the  Borough,  on 
the  9th,  and  the  Isle,  on  the  10th  of  November, 
1874,  directed  your  Committee  to  prepare  these 
plans  ; and  the  County,  on  the  7th  of  January,  1875, 


7 


made  a similar  order.  A sub-Committee,  consisting 
of  the  Chairman,  Mr.  Hicks,  Mr.  Webb,  Mr.  Townley, 

Mr.  Ranee,  and  Mr.  Goodman,  was,  on  the  21st  of 
March  last,  appointed  to  consider  the  matter. 

On  the  31st  May  last,  the  sub-Committee  reported 
that  they  recommended  the  adoption  of  the  ground 
plans,  submitted  to  them  by  Mr.  Rowe,  the  Architect, 
and  this  was  on  the  same  day  agreed  to. 

Subsequently  Mr.  Rowe  had  several  interviews 
with  the  Commissioners  at  their  office,  in  London, 
relative  to  the  ground  plan  of  the  proposed  enlarge- 
ment and  improvement  of  the  Asylum,  in  order  to 
obtain  their  approval  thereto,  previously  to  incurring 
the  expense  of  preparing  detailed  plans  and  estimates, 
and  after  some  further  correspondence  on  the  sub- 
ject, the  Commissioners,  in  a letter  of  the  5th  of 
October  last,  informed  your  Committee  that  they 
were  prepared  to  submit  the  plans  to  their  consulting 
Architect,  and  Mr.  Rowe  was  thereupon  instructed 
to  prepare  plans  and  estimates  for  carrying  out  the 
works. 

Your  Committee  have  in  former  Reports  had  ^yl"“g°tJ^°e'd 
occasion  to  record  their  opinion  that  the  Asylum 
Building  was  constructed  in  a very  insubstantial 
manner,  which  has  been,  and  still  continues,  to  be  a 
source  of  great  expense,  as  evidenced  by  the  large 
sums  required  from  the  County,  Isle,  and  Borough, 
foi  Landlord  s Repairs  during  the  past  year,  as 
hereinafter  appearing.

Now  Gas 
Holder  and 


The  principal  works  carried  out  since  our  last 
Report  are  as  follows  : — 

THE  GAS  WORKS. 

In  April  last,  Mr.  Rowe  reported  to  your  Com- 
other  works.  mjttee  the  leaky  and  dangerous  condition  of  the  gas 

holder.  It  being  no  longer  sufficient  for  the  require- 
ments of  the  Asylum,  it  was  determined  to  replace 
it  with  a new  gas  holder.  The  new  gas  holder  has 
a capacity  of  6000  cubic  feet ; the  ironwork  was 
contracted  for  by  Messrs.  Eastons  and  Anderson,  at 
£290 ; the  excavation,  brickwork,  puddling,  and 
other  work  in  connection  therewith  have  been 
substantially  and  economically  executed  by  the 
patients,  guided  and  aided  by  the  Asylum  Staff. 

The  Gas-house  has  been  enlarged  and  covered  by 
a new  roof  (nearly  fire-proof),  the  chimney  rebuilt, 
a new  set  of  Retorts  supplied,  and  a shed  provided 
for  storage  of  coals,  a duplicate  main  pipe  from  the 
works  to  the  Asylum  has  been  laid  in,  the  old 
water  pipes  having  been  economically  used  for  this 
purpose. 

THE  WATER  SUPPLY. 

The  water  supply  to  the  farm  and  gas-works  has 
been  improved,  and  a hydrant  fixed  near  the  farm 
buildings  to  be  available  in  case  of  fire. 

THE  LAUNDRY.

working  patients  there  under  easy  supervision  : this 
wall  was  found  to  contain  several  smoke-flues,  some 
had  been  long  disused,  the  others  were  so  tortuous 
that  they  could  not  be  swept,  and  consequently 
when  very  foul  they  caught  fire,  and  burned  them- 
selves clean  ; the  whole  have  been  cleared  away, 
and  the  old  bricks  re-used  in  the  construction  of  a 
new  chimney  to  the  hot-air  closet,  which  has  been 
made  50  feet  high,  so  as  to  prevent  a deposit  of 
blacks  (as  formerly)  upon  newly-washed  linen 
hanging  in  the  drying  ground. 

The  joists,  sleepers,  floor,  and  skirting  of  the 
ironing  room  in  the  laundry  were  found  to  be 
entirely  rotten  from  original  bad  construction  and 
workmanship,  they  have  been  entirely  renewed  with 
materials  of  good  quality,  with  ample  provision  for 
ventilating  them,  so  as  to  prevent  any  further 
growth  of  fungus. 

All  the  foregoing  work  has  been  executed  by  the 
Asylum  Staff  and  the  Patients. 

IRON  FENCE. 

The  wood  fencing  abutting  upon  the  Fulbourn  ^EubmiSto0 
road,  at  the  principal  entrance  to  the  grounds,  after A8ylmnGround- 
being  mended  from  time  to  time,  was  found  to  be 
too  rotten  for  further  repairs.  Iron  was  purchased 
at  a cost  of  £70,  with  which  the  Asylum  workmen 
made  and  fixed  substantial  fences.  Part  of  the 
stone  work  in  the  pier  of  the  entrance  gateway 
gave  way  and  has  been  restored.

STOVES  AND  HEARTH-STONES. 

In  consequence  of  a narrow  escape  from  fire  on 
the  16 tli  of  March,  1875,  as  detailed  in  Mr.  Rowe’s 
Report  in  the  Appendix,  an  order  was  given  for  the 
thorough  examination  of  the  whole  of  the  hearth- 
stones in  the  Asylum.  Up  to  this  date  69  stoves, 
chimney-pieces  and  hearth-stones  have  been  re- 
moved. This  costly,  though  necessary,  work  revealed 
a most  scandalous  amount  of  scamping  mal-construc- 
tion,  most  of  the  hearth-stones  were  broken  from 
having  been  improperly  bedded  in  the  first  instance 
upon  shavings,  sawdust,  sand,  and  rubbish.  The 
Asylum  workmen  and  patients  have  removed  many 
cubic  yards  of  this  rubbish. 

In  some  cases  the  trimmers  and  other  timbers  of 
the  upper  floors  were  found  built  into  flues ; some 
were  charred  from  the  heat  of  the  fire  in  the  room 
below. 

Solid  concrete  has  been  laid  in,  and  the  hearth- 
stones solidly  bedded  thereon.  Timbers  in  and  near 
flues  have  been  cut  off,  holes  in  flues  between  the 
floors  have  been  soundly  filled  up,  the  stoves  re-set 
with  Stourbridge  fire-bricks  in  fire  clay,  and  the 
chimney-pieces  re-fixed;  33  fire-places  still  require 
the  same  treatment  before  the  Asylum  can  be 
considered  safe.  The  work  of  renovation  is,  how- 
ever, in  steady  progress ; it  involves  much  labour 
and  expense,  but  the  results  have  amply  justified 
the  outlay.

COOKING  BOILERS. 

In  September,  1875,  Mr.  Rowe  reported  to  your 
Committee  that  one  of  the  old  cast-iron  cooking 
boilers,  heated  by  steam,  had  given  way ; another 
has  since  cracked  and  is  useless.  A temporary 
copper  was  at  once  fixed  and  heated  by  gas,  to 
provide  for  the  cooking  of  the  patients’  food.  New 
boilers  of  wrouglit-iron  are  in  course  of  erection. 

In  your  Committee’s  last  Annual  Report  theyT'%°0“*u°fhfour 
stated  that  an  agreement  for  re-adjusting  the  quotas  Agree.6 
on  the  basis  of  the  average  number  of  patients  in  meQuot^nng 
the  Asylum  during  seven  years  had  been  signed  by 
a majority  of  the  whole  number  of  Visitors  com- 
prising your  Committee,  and  forwarded  to  one  of 
Her  Majesty’s  Secretaries  of  State,  for  his  consent. 

A short  time  after  this  a correspondence  between 
your  Committee  and  the  Commissioners  in  Lunacy 
took  place,  when  the  latter,  although  prepared  to 
recommend  to  Mr.  Secretary  Cross  to  sanction  the 
new  arrangement,  were  of  opinion  that  a majority 
of  the  Visitors  of  each  of  the  three  bodies  was 
necessary  in  order  to  comply  with  the  requirements 
of  the  Act. 

Your  Committee,  in  endeavouring  to  carry  out 
the  Commissioners’  view  of  the  law,  presented  it  to 
the  Visitors  for  the  Borough  for  signature,  when 
two  out  of  the  four  Visitors  for  that  body  signed  it, 
but  the  others  declined  to  do  so.  This  put  an  end 
to  the  re-adjustment.

Special  Report,  applied  to  the  County,  Isle,  and

Your  Committee  beg  to  report  that  at  their  first  ch™£^*- 
Meeting,  held  on  the  25th  day  of  January  last,  Eoffieesofn8 

Christopher  Robert  Pemberton,  Esquire,  who,  since 

January,  1867,  has  been  Chairman  of  your  Com- 
mittee, resigned  that  office,  and  thereupon  the 
following  resolution  was  unanimously  passed  : — 

“ That  a cordial  vote  of  thanks  he  awarded  to  Major 
Pemberton  for  his  valuable  services  during  the  many  years 
he  has  so  efficiently  fulfilled  the  duties  of  Chairman  of  the 
Committee  of  Visitors  of  the  Asylum.” 

On  the  28th  of  June  last,  your  Committee  Arrangement 

• r*  nr  it  in  with  Mr.  Archer, 

were  informed  that  Mr.  Henry  Archer,  the  fete  ward  steward,  on  his 

«/  7 marrying. 


of  the  Asylum,  intended  marrying,  and  being  of- 
opinion  that  it  would  be  better,  after  that  event, 
that  he  should  reside  out  of  the  Asylum,  your 
Committee  therefore  decided  to  allow  Mr.  Archer 
£50  a-year,  in  addition  to  his  original  salary  of 
£100,  in  lieu  of  board,  washing,  and  lodging,  and 
arranged  the  hours  for  his  attendance  to  his  duties 
at  the  Asylum,  which  were  agreed  to  by  him. 

Your  Committee  regret  to  have  to  report  that  the 

the  month  of  March  last  the  Asylum  was  visited  by 

a serious  epidemic  of  Erysipelas,  which  resulted  in 
the  deaths  of  several  of  the  patients.  Your  Com- 
mittee directed  Dr.  Gf.  E.  Paget,  of  Cambridge,  to 
inspect  the  Asylum,  and  to  report  specially  on  the 
matter,  which  he  did. 

Your  Committee  regret  to  have  to  report  that  at  GDBerews°ter 
their  Meeting,  held  on  the  22nd  day  of  February

last,  Dr.  Bacon  announced  that  on  the  11th  of  that 
month,  George  Brewster,  a hoy,  aged  12,  employed 
by  William  Wyer,  a chimney  sweep,  of  Cambridge, 
who  was  engaged  in  cleaning  the  boiler  flues,  was 
suffocated  in  one  of  them,  and  died  in  an  hour 
after  being  removed  from  the  flue. 

°quest’onIn'  A coroner’s  inquest  was  held  at  the  Asylum  on 
— ewater‘ — the  13th  of  February  last,  and  a verdict  of  man- 
slaughter was  returned  against  Wyer,  and  Dr.  Bacon 
was  bound  over  to  prosecute.  Your  Committee 
instructed  their  Clerk  to  conduct  the  prosecution  at 
the  last  Cambridge  March  Assizes,  before  Mr. 
Justice  Grove,  and  Wyer  was  convicted  of  the 
offence,  and  sentenced  to  six  calendar  months’ 
imprisonment  with  hard  labour. 

All  reports  and  correspondence  referred  to  in  this 
Report,  together  with  the  Report  of  the  Commis- 
sioners in  Lunacy  on  their  annual  inspection  of  the

ESTIMATE  FOR 

EXTRA  WORK  TO  TANK,  LAUNDRY,  MANGLE,  &c. 

Cambridge, 

25  January , 1875. 

To  the  Visitors  of  the  Fulbourn  Lunatic  Asylum. 

Gentlemen, 

During  a recent  inspection  of  the  Asylum 
and  the  -works  in  course  of  execution  by  Messrs.  Eastons 
and  Anderson,  I observed  several  defects  in  the  old  iron 
tanks  in  the  Roofs,  particularly  as  to  overflow  pipes  and 
lead  safety  pans  to  receive  leakage  and  condensed  water, 
also  as  to  the  waste  of  steam  in  the  Laundry  boilers  and 
consequent  waste  of  fuel  ; I drew  the  attention  of  Messrs. 
Eastons  and  Anderson  thereto,  requesting  them  to  report 
upon  the  same  for  your  information. 


Mr.  Rowe’s 
Report,

Their  Report,  dated  the  20th  of  January,  1875,  I beg 
to  enclose. 

Some  time  ago,  I reported  that  there  were  cracks  in 
the  brickwork  of  the  upper  part  of  the  Tower ; the  recent 
frost  has  increased  the  width  of  those  cracks  : I beg  to 
recommend  that  the  upper  part  of  the  Tower  be  tied 
together  with  iron  bands  in  such  a manner  that  they 
cannot  be  observed  from  the  exterior  ; the  expense  will 
not  exceed  £25. 

I have  the  honour  to  be, 

Gentlemen, 

Your  obedient  Servant, 

E.  REYNOLDS  ROWE.

Dear  Sir, 


65,  Southwakk  Street, 
London, 

January  2 0 th,  1875. 


Fulbourn  Lunatic  Asylum. 


In  accordance  with  your  letter  of  5th  instant, 
we  now  beg  to  report  upon  the  extra  work  necessary  to 
be  done  to  Tanks  to  overflow  pipes,  and  also  upon  a few 
other  things  to  which  our  attention  has  been  called  by 
Dr.  Bacon. 

As  to  the  Tower  Tank,  this  having  been  fitted  with 
the  extra  tier  of  plates,  and  tested  within  a foot  of  the 
top  with  water,  the  old  portion  is  found  to  be  very  leaky, 
the  new  ties  are  fixed  and  the  whole  is  firmly  braced 
together,  so  that  there  can  be  no  give  in  any  of  the  plates ; 
the  leaks  are  owing  to  the  extra  pressure  causing  the 
water  to  weep  through  faulty  joints,  which  ought  to  be 
cleaned  out  and  recaulked. 

The  present  overflow  from  the  Tower  Tank  is  bad, 
and  should  be  renewed  with  a 3-in.  appold  overflow  and

wash-out,  having  3-in.  cast  iron  waste  pipe  properly  jointed 
and  connected  into  drain. 

The  small  Tanks  in  roof  over  Male  and  Female 
Wards,  should  be  raised  and  refixed  on  small  iron  joists 
so  as  to  leave  a space  for  new  lead  safety  sinks  to  be 
placed  under  them,  also  2-in.  overflows  and  wash-out 
pipes  connected  with  Tanks  and  Sinks,  should  he  carried 
away  to  drain. 

These  Tanks  appear  to  have  been  fixed  for  storage 
of  water  in  case  the  Tower  Tank,  from  which  they  are 
supplied,  ran  dry ; the  supply  pipe  in  this  case  is  also 
made  the  service  pipe  by  being  connected  with  the  bottom 
of  the  Tanks  ; it  is  always  necessary  therefore  to  keep  the 
service  pipes  shut  off  by  Cocks,  which  are  fixed  for  the 
purpose,  to  prevent  the  Tanks  overflowing. 

It  is  evident  that  this  storage  water  can  only  become 
available  after  the  Tower  Tank  has  been  emptied,  and 
then  only  by  opening  the  cocks  in  the  roof.  Should  the 
Tanks  in  this  way  be  called  into  use,  there  would  be 
great  attention  required  to  shut  off  the  cocks  again  on 
commencing  to  refill  the  Tower  Tank,  otherwise  the  water 
would  all  run  into  the  Tanks  on  the  lower  Level  and 
overflow.  To  avoid  this  danger  of  overflowing,  we  pro- 
pose fixing  a back  pressure  valve  on  the  service  pipe  to 
each  Tank  to  act  in  such  a manner  that,  should  the 
Tower  Tank  become  empty,  the  storeage  water  shall  flow 
freely  into  the  whole  system  of  pipes  in  the  building; 
immediately  the  water  begins  to  ascend  again  into  the 
Tower  Tank,  the  valves  will  he  kept  closed  by  the  pressure 
due  to  the  extra  head. 

Since  we  have  put  in  the  new  rising  mains  and  hall 
valves  direct  from  the  pumping  main  to  each  of  the  lower 
Tanks,  it  will  he  seen  that  they  will  always  fill  first  and 

3 


18 


shut  themselves  off  before  any  water  will  rise  to  the 
Lower,  so  that  the  storage  water  will  always  be  insured. 

As  regards  the  Laundry,  to  which  our  attention 
has  lately  been  called,  and  which  we  inspected  on  the  15th 
instant,  it  is  necessary  that  two  new  boiling  vessels  be 
supplied  in  place  of  the  old  ones  in  the  back  wash-house, 
and  that  the  one  in  front  wash-house  be  reset  and  pro- 
perly connected  to  drain  with  syphon  trap  and  cock. 

The  Mangle  is  in  bad  condition  and  requires  new  top 
gear  and  box.  It  would  be  better  to  replace  this  with 
one  of  more  modern  date.  The  feed  water  heater  in 
Engine  room,  which  was  to  have  been  removed,  has  not 
been  working  for  some  time  and  leaks  badly,  having  holes 
eaten  through  in  places,  this  should  be  replaced  by  a new 
one  of  better  construction. 

The  Engine  will  require  a new  feed  pump  (the  present 
one  being  broken  and  out  of  use),  a new  piston,  the  valve 
replaced,  and  a cylinder  properly  lagged. 

The  Pumps  will  require  a new  set  of  leathers,  new 
cleats  for  guide  girders,  new  brasses  where  necessary,  and 
the  whole  thoroughly  overhauled. 

We  believe  that  the  above  matters  include  everything 
necessary  to  be  done  to  put  the  Asylum  in  proper  working 
order,  and  we  Estimate  the  cost  of  carrying  out  the  work 
herein  set  forth,  including  a new  six-foot  Bradford  s 
Mangle,  at  Three  Hundred  and  Fifteen  Pounds.  (£315.) 

We  should  be  willing  also  to  allow  a reasonable  sum 
for  all  the  old  pipes  and  machinery  replaced  by  new. 

We  are,  dear  Sir, 

Yours  faithfully, 

EASTONS  & ANDEBSON.

MR.  R.  R.  ROWE’S  REPORT  AS  TO 
GAS  WORKS. 

Cambridge,  May,  1875.  Mr  Rowo>s 

Report,  referred 

To  the  Visitors  of  the  Fulbourn  Lunatic  Asylum.  pa°° 

Gentlemen, 

GAS  WORKS. 

According  to  your  instructions,  I have  examined  the 
Gas-holder,  and  beg  to  Report,  viz. : 

That  the  Gas-holder  contained  3200  cubic  feet  of  gas 
when  new  and  in  good  condition  : the  brick  tank  in  which 
it  floats  is  10  ft.  deep,  and  constructed  of  brickwork  but 
1 brick,  or  9 in.  thick,  and  is  now  leaky,  and  holds  water 
only  8 ft.  9 in.  deep.  The  water  being  thus  1 ft.  2 in.  lower 
than  it  was  originally,  the  gas  holder  can  never  be  raised 
to  its  full  height,  and  its  capacity  is  thus  reduced  to  2800 
cubic  feet. 

The  iron  plates  of  the  Gas-holder,  particularly  in  the 
two  lowest  tiers,  are  corroded  and  leaky,  so  that  it  is  neces- 
sary to  coat  the  exterior  frequently  with  tar  to  prevent 
waste  of  gas  through  the  holes  caused  by  rust. 

The  iron  standards  carrying  the  balance  weights  are 
only  3 in  number,  it  is  therefore  difficult  to  connect  their 
heads  so  as  to  make  them  rigid,  one  standard  is  loose  at 
the  foof  and  out  of  the  upright,  another  was  snapped  in  a 
gale  of  wind  5 years  ago,  and  repaired  by  an  iron  bandage  ; 
this  remains  imperfect. 


20 


The  2^  in.  syphon  inlet  and  outlet  pipes  (or  one  of 
them)  are  leaky,  so  that  when  additional  water  is  run  into 
the  tank  to  compensate  for  leakage  and  evaporation,  or 
when  there  is  a heavy  fall  of  rain,  water  leaks  into  the 
supply  main  and  puts  out  the  lights  in  the  Asylum ; the 
continual  leakage  into  the  supply  or  inlet  that  is  going  on, 
although  pumped  regularly  from  the  syphons  causes  the 
watery  vapour  produced  by  evaporation  to  mingle  with  the 
gas,  and  so  reduce  its  illuminating  power. 

The  2£  in.  main  pipe  from  the  works  into  the  Asylum 
cannot  run  full  bore,  as  it  is  partly  choked  by  internal 
corrosion ; but  a more  serious  objection  to  it  lies  in  the 
fact  that  it  is  no  longer  large  enough  to  supply  the  wants 
of  the  Asylum. 

There  are  now  496  burners  in  use  in  the  building, 
exclusive  of  sundry  gas  stoves,  &c.,  employed  for  heating 
and  cooking.  The  present  main  is  hardly  large  enough 
for  this  service,  and  in  view  of  the  inevitable  enlargement 
of  the  Asylum,  it  is  clear  that  a main  of  greater  calibre 
must  be  laid  from  the  works  to  the  Asylum.  It  would 
therefore  be  best  to  lay  down  a new  4-inch  main  this 
summer.  The  meter  being  for  only  200  lights,  is  now  use- 
less ) but  it  does  not  appear  to  me  that  a meter  is  wanted 
at  all. 

It  will  also  be  necessary  to  construct  an  additional 
Gas-holder,  as  it  is  not  possible  to  repair  the  old  one  with- 
out stopping  the  supply  of  gas  entirely  for  a considerable 

time. 

It  is  not  required  merely  for  convenience,  but  as  an 
alternative,  as,  in  case  of  any  accident  to  the  present  one, 
the  Asylum  would  be  left  in  darkness.  The  holder  is  now 
in  so  risky  a state  that  there  is  no  security  against  such 


21 


an  occurrence  at  any  moment.  The  second  Gras-holder 
would  of  course  be  invaluable  as  affording  increased  storage 
of  gas. 

If  a scrubber  were  added  to  the  works,  the  gas  would 
be  much  better  purified,  and  so  its  corrosive  action  upon 
the  pipes,  fittings,  and  painted  work  in  the  building  would 
be  decreased. 

These  are  permanent  works,  the  benefit  of  which 
would  be  felt  for  an  indefinite  time,  and  would  provide  for 
wants  sure  to  arise,  and  Sunday  labour  in  gas-making 
might  thus  be  avoided. 

The  works  necessary  are  : 

(1)  To  make  the  tank  watertight : this  can  best  be 

done  by  rebuilding  the  brickwork  in  cement, 
and  puddling  the  exterior  with  well-tempered 
clay. 

(2)  To  reconstruct  the  two  lower  tiers  of  the  exist- 

ing gasholder  with  new  plates,  and  to  insert 
new  plates  where  found  necessary. 

(3)  To  refix  the  two  sound  standards,  and  insert  a 

new  standard  in  place  of  that  broken,  also  to 
provide  three  additional  standards,  and  con- 
nect the  tops  of  all  the  standards  by  light 
iron  girders  and  stays. 

(4)  To  construct  a second  gasholder  of  increased 

capacity. 

(5)  To  take  up  the  supply  main,  inlet  pipe  and 

syphons,  and  replace  them  by  larger,  pro- 
perly adapted  to  the  future  requirements  of 
the  Asylum. 

(6)  To  construct  a scrubber,  and  to  lay  on  water 

thereto,  by  using  the  old  pipes  now  in  the 
high  road. 


22 


The  estimated  expense  of  the  foregoing  works,  is 


(а)  To  repair  and  strengthen  the  present 

gas  holder  and  fittings 

(б)  To  provide  a second  gasholder  of  10,000 

cubic  feet  capacity  

(c)  To  lay  a new  main  from  the  works  to 

the  House  

(d)  To  provide  a scrubber,  and  lay  on  water 

thereto

ME  E.  E.  ROWE’S  EEPOET  AS  TO  EIEE  AT  THE 
ASYLUM  AND  DEFECTIVE  STATE  OF  HEAETH 
STONES,  &c. 


, 31s£  March,  1875.  Mr.  Eowe’s 

Eeport,  referred 

To  the  Visitors  of  the  Fulbourn  Asylum,  — 

Gentlemen, 

I beg  to  report  that,  on  the  16th  of  March,  1875, 
the  Asylum  was  again  in  imminent  danger  of  destruction 
by  fire. 

The  Females'  Ward,  No.  1 (next  the  Central  Corridor) 
is  warmed  by  two  open  fireplaces ; the  Dormitory  on  the 
First  Floor  over  it  is  also  warmed  by  two  similar  fire- 
places. 

About  two  o’clock  in  the  afternoon  of  the  16tli  instant, 

Dr.  Bacon  discovered  that  the  Dormitory  was  full  of  smoke, 
issuing  from  crevices  in  the  floor  and  skirting ; he  im- 
mediately ordered  a portion  of  the  flooring  to  be  taken  up, 
when  it  was  found  that  some  holes  existed  in  the  brick- 
work of  the  flue  of  the  Day  Room  fireplace  (to  the  west,  or 
nearest  the  central  corridor)  between  the  Day  Room  ceiling 
and  the  Dormitory  floor. 

The  Day  Room  fire  was  at  once  extinguished,  the 
Building  watched  for  some  time,  and  provision  made 
for  turning  on  the  water,  should  it  be  found  necessary. 

Between  the  ceiling  and  the  first  floor,  a large  quantity 
of  soot  has  accumulated,  shewing  that,  if  the  Day  Room 
chimney  were  at  any  time  to  take  fire,  the  timber  work  in 
direct  communication  therewith  must  become  ignited  ; no 


24 


work  has  been  done  in  the  locality  since  the  Asylum  was 
built,  therefore  this  defect  results  from  the  original  bad 
workmanship  which  is  so  extensively  found  to  exist  about 
the  building. 

There  is  reason  to  believe  that  the  hearth  stones, 
generally,  are  imperfectly  laid  upon  sand  and  loose  bricks. 

In  consequence  of  this  fresh  instance  of  the  danger  to 
which  the  building  is  exposed  to  an  outbreak  of  fire,  I beg 
to  recall  your  attention  to  a report  I presented  to  you  on 
the  16th  day  of  March,  1872,  suggesting  that, 

“ It  would  be  well  to  enquire  as  to  what  additional 
precautions  can  be  taken  against  fire  ; such  as, 

(1)  An  examination  of  party  walls. 

(2)  An  examination  of  woodwork  near  flues. 

I beg  respectfully  to  recommend  for  the  safety  of  the 
building,  that,  during  the  ensuing  summer,  all  the  hearths 
and  stoves  throughout  the  Asylum  be  removed  for  examin- 
ation and  repair,  and  that  all  the  loose  and  defective 
brickwork  which  may  be  found  in  and  about  the  flues  and 
fireplaces  be  rebuilt  in  a substantial  manner,  and  that  any 
timber  passing  into  the  brickwork  of  flues  be  cut  off  and 
supported  upon  iron  or  stone  corbels  ; also,  that  the  party 
walls  separating  each  block  of  building  be  carried  up 
through  the  roofs,  and  the  workmen’s  doorways  in  the 
party  walls  above  the  level  of  the  upper  ceilings,  be  closed 
against  fire  by  proper  iron  doors,  as  would  be  required  by 
the  Buildings  Act,  if  the  Asylum  were  situated  within  the 
Metropolis. 

I have  the  honour  to  be, 

Gentlemen, 

Your  obedient  Servant, 

B.  REYNOLDS  ROWE.

MR.  R.  R.  ROWE’S  REPORT  AS  TO  COOKING  STOVES 

AND  BOILERS. 

Mr.  Rowe's 

Cambridge,  27  September,  1875.  RteP  at 'pllTll* 
To  the  Visitors  of  the  Cambridgeshire  Asylum. 

Gentlemen, 

In  consequence  of  a Steam  Boiler  in  the  Cook 
House  having  recently  burst,  Dr.  Bacon  requested  me  to 
examine  it. 

I beg  to  report  that  the  Cook  House  contains  4 boilers  ; 
one  of  the  boilers  is  broken  and  useless,  the  other  three 
are  in  a bad  condition,  but  although  used  at  present,  can- 
not last  much  longer. 

There  being  no  other  means  of  boiling  food  for  the 
patients,  it  is  important  that  immediate  steps  be  taken  to 
provide  proper  boilers  : it  will  not  be  possible  to  put  in  one 
new  boiler  without  taking  down  the  others. 

In  consideration  of  the  inevitable  replacement  of  the 
cooking  apparatus,  it  will  be  advisable  to  provide  the 
necessary  [means  for  doing  so  in  the  plans  about  to  be 
prepared  for  the  permanent  enlargement  of  the  Asylum. 

I am,  Gentlemen, 

Your  obedient  Servant, 

R.  REYNOLDS  ROWE.

REPORT  OF  COMMISSIONERS  IN  LUNACY. 


Commissioners’ 
Report, 
referred  to  at 
page  14. 


Cambridgeshire  Asylum, 
Fulbourn, 

8 th  July , 1875. 


This  Asylum,  which  we  to-day  inspected,  is  still 
dangerously  overcrowded,  but  we  are  glad  to  hear  that  the 
plans  for  remedy  of  the  evils,  incident  thereto,  are  of  a com- 
prehensive nature.  All  delay  should  be  avoided  in  this 
matter  as  the  overcrowding  was  formally  drawn  to  the 
notice  of  the  Committee  so  far  back  as  1870,  has  at  each 
subsequent  visit  been  commented  on  by  Members  of  our 
Board,  and  we  cannot  doubt  that  it  was  the  cause  of  the 
epidemic,  which  we  learn  from  the  book  kept  pursuant  to 
section  61  of  the  Act  of  1853,  became  by  direction  of  the 
Visitors,  the  subject  of  a special  report  by  Dr.  Paget,  of 
Cambridge. 

The  number  of  Patients  in  residence  to-day  is  269 — 
3 women  are  absent  on  trial.  Of  those  present,  123  are 
men,  146  are  females.  Since  the  last  visit  of  the  Com- 
missioners in  Lunacy,  which  took  place  on  the  4th  of 
February,  1874,  the  changes  have  been  these  : 


Men. 

Females. 

Together.

Died  

....  30  .. 

....  32  ... 

...  62 

In  55  of  the  63  cases  discharged,  recovery  is  reported. 
As  will  be  seen  from  the  figures  above  stated,  the  rate 


27 


of  mortality  has  been  very  high,  something  like  15  per 
cent,  per  annum  on  the  average  number  resident.  The 
causes  of  death  have  been  what  are  called  natural,  but  2 
women  died  from  erysipelas,  which  was  the  epidemic  of 
which  mention  has  been  made.  Eighteen  patients  were 
attacked  by  it,  and  there  is  still  one  man  suffering  from 
that  malady. 

We  found  the  Asylum  in  good  order,  and  there  was 
no  noisy  excitement  in  any  of  the  wards.  No  patient  was 
secluded  or  under  restraint.  One  man  on  11  occasions, 
and  a woman  on  4 occasions,  have  been  since  last  visit 
subjected  to  the  former  mode  of  treatment,  the  latter  has 
in  no  case,  it  seems,  been  resorted  to.  Very  few  were  in 
bed  as  we  passed  through  the  wards  ; the  names  of  4 men 
and  6 women  are  registered  as  those  of  persons  under 
medical  treatment.  A good  proportion  of  both  sexes  is 
usefully  employed ; as  well  in  the  shops,  as  in  the 
domestic  offices  a fair  amount  of  work  appears  to  be  done, 
many  men  also  labor  on  the  land.  There  is  nothing 
special  to  report  upon  the  arrangements  for  divine  service. 

Those  for  out-door  exercise  and  indoor  recreation  are 
much  the  same  as  heretofore  reported ; there  is  still  a 
string  band  made  up  from  attendants  musically  disposed, 
and  to-morrow  a pic-nic  will  take  place  in  an  adjoining 
park,  to  which  180  patients,  or  thereabouts,  will  be  al- 
lowed to  go. 

Within  the  building  nothing  yet  has  been  done  to 
lessen  the  overcrowding,  to  extend  the  infirmary  accom- 
modation, or  to  supply  the  deficiency  of  water  closets  and 
baths,  but  the  suggestions  of  the  Commissioners  have 
been  followed  out  in  providing  the  means  of  extinguishing 
any  outbreak  of  fire,  and  in  course  of  repairs  at  the 
Laundry,  its  better  ventilation  may  become  possible.  The 


28 


want  of  a detached  Hospital  is  a serious  defect  in  this 
Asylum,  and  it  is  one  which  we  think  should  attract  the  early 
attention  of  the  Committee,  having  been  already  too  long 
disregarded. 

Among  the  recent  improvements  here,  is  the  intro- 
duction of  shrubs  and  flower  beds,  in  a large  male  airing 
court — it  has  done  much  to  enliven  the  space,  and  will 
we  trust,  be  extended  to  the  womens  exercising  ground. 
The  Mortuary  Chapel  is  still  in  a very  unsatisfactory 
condition,  a small  outlay  on  that  building  would  be  very 
right,  and  we  trust  that  the  Committee  will  recognise  its 
necessity  at  no  distant  date.  Upon  enquiry  (induced  by 
seeing  the  interior  of  the  Chapel)  we  heard  that  a plan 
for  some  renovation  and  decoration  had  been  submitted 
to  them,  but  had  (perhaps  in  view  of  matters  then  more 
pressing)  been  dropped.  The  removal  of  the  boiler  con- 
sidered dangerous  to  the  Asylum,  and  some  other 
improvements  already  made  in  this  Establishment,  en- 
courage the  belief  on  our  part  that  our  recommendations 
are  always  borne  in  mind  by  the  Visitors,  we  will  not 
therefore  reiterate  our  views  as  to  the  necessity  of  a 
medical  assistant  to  the  superintendent.  As  far  as  we  can 
judge  from  the  aspect  of  the  Asylum,  and  the  condition 
of  its  inmates,  Dr.  Bacon  is  zealously  performing  his  duty, 
and  under  the  management  of  the  Visitors  this  Asylum 
is  well  conducted.

THE  CHAPLAIN’S  REPORT. 


County  Asylum, 

24 th  December,  1875. 

Gentlemen, 

I have  the  honor  to  lay  before  you  my  17th 
Annual  Report,  as  Chaplain  of  this  Asylum. 

I am  thankful  to  say  that  I have  not  been  prevented 
by  ill  health,  or  any  other  cause,  from  performing  Divine 
Service  every  Sunday  Morning  during  the  past  year.  I 
have  also  read  Prayers  on  Tuesday  and  Friday  mornings, 
with  very  few  exceptions. 

I am  not  aware  of  anything  that  calls  for  special 
mention. 

I have  had,  as  usual,  a short  Service  in  the  female 
Infirmary  every  Wednesday  afternoon,  which  seems  to  he 
acceptable  to  the  patients  who  attend. 

I have  visited  the  sick  as  opportunities  have  occurred  ; 
and  have  buried  39  patients  in  the  Cemetery,  since  this  day 
last  year. 

The  Chapel  continues  to  be  well  attended  on  Sunday 
mornings.  The  patients  join  heartily  in  the  singing,  and 
I am  glad  to  say  that  many  appear  to  pay  great  attention 
to  the  Services,  so  that  I have  reason  to  believe  that  their 
attendance  at  the  Chapel  is  a source  of  comfort  and 
consolation  to  them. 

I am,  Gentlemen, 

Your  obedient  Servant, 

W.  S.  PARISH, 

Chaplain. 


REPORT 


OF  THE 

medical  superintendent 

TO  THE 

COMMITTEE  OF  VISITORS, 

FOR  THE  YEAR  1875. 


January , 1876. 

The  admissions  for  the  past  year  have  amounted 
to  95,  of  which.  43  were  males  and  52  females. 

The  recoveries  have  been  at  the  rate  of  47.3  per 
cent,  (calculated  on  the  admissions).  Of  these  27 
have  been  men,  and  18  women. 

The  deaths  have  reached  the  total  of  54 ; of 
which  number  25  were  males,  and  29  females. 

The  admissions  have  been  more  numerous  than 
in  any  previous  year,  excluding  those  patients  not 
belonging  to  this  county,  and  even  including  the 
alien  element  the  number  has  not  been  exceeded 
since  1861. 

The  only  aspect  of  this  question  open  to  con- 
gratulation is  that  the  larger  number  of  admissions 
has  furnished  an  unusual  proportion  of  recoveries. 

On  the  other  hand,  the  proportion  of  deaths  has 
been  unusually  high,  and  this  has  been  in  some 


32 


measure  due  to  the  unhealthy  condition  of  the 
Asylum.  About  25  per  cent,  of  the  deaths  were 
due  to  Phthsis,  occurring  chiefly  among  chronic 
residents  in  the  Asylum.  Four  deaths  were  due  to 
erysipelas,  or  its  consequences. 

During  February,  March,  and  April,  the  wards 
were  overcrowded,  and  an  epidemic  of  Erysipelas 
caused  a serious  amount  of  illness. 

A large  number  of  patients  died  during  the  first 
four  months  of  the  year  from  various  causes,  and 
it  was  not  till  the  end  of  September  that  Erysipelas 
disappeared  from  the  wards. 

The  numbers  on  December  31st,  1875,  were  128 
males,  and  153  females,  making  a total  of  281,  as 
compared  with  295  at  the  same  period  in  1874. 

Only  one  of  the  deaths  was  due  to  any  sort  of 
violence,  that  of  an  old  man,  who  had  an  accidental 
fall,  and  broke  his  arm,  and  died  a few  days  after- 
wards. An  inquest  was  held  in  this  case,  but  no 
blame  was  imputed  to  the  attendants  or  others. 

The  bulk  of  the  cases  continues  to  be  of  an 
incurable  nature,  and,  while  this  is  the  case,  the 
only  prospect  can  be  a gradual  increase  in  the  total 
number  of  inmates. 

The  number  of  probably  curable  cases  does  not, 
at  the  end  of  1875,  exceed  a dozen,  out  of  the  281 
residents. 


33 


The  improvements  in  the  laundry  have  enabled 
the  work  to  be  carried  on  more  efficiently,  and  with 
increased  comfort  to  those  employed  there. 

The  Asylum  is  now,  for  the  first  time,  sufficiently 
protected  against  fire,  i.  e.,  all  parts  of  the  building 
are  commanded  by  hydrants,  served  by  a constant 
supply  of  water  at  high  pressure. 

A suitable  funeral  bier,  on  wheels,  has  been 
provided,  which  has  much  lessened  the  labours 
incidental  to  the  burials  in  the  Cemetery,  and  has  at 
the  same  time  enabled  them  to  be  conducted  with 
proper  ceremony. 

The  patients  have  been  employed  with  more  than 
average  assiduity  in  the  various  out-door  works 
connected  with  the  building  operations,  and,  though 
they  have  been  amply  occupied,  their  intervals  of 
leisure  have  been  enlivened  by  sundry  amusements, 
such  as  a pic-nic  at  Mr.  Townley’s  park,  and  by 
certain  entertainments  in  the  winter  evenings, 
originated  by  the  attendants  and  others,  who  have 
exerted  themselves  for  the  diversion  of  their  less 
free  fellow-creatures.
