EEPOET 


OF  THE 

COMMITTEE  OF  VISITING  JUSTICES 

OP

Hunat it  fl0s>lum,  glt^rgabennin 


The  Committee  of  Visiting  Justices  have  to 
report  that  the  Joint  Counties  and  City  of  Here¬ 
ford  Lunatic  Asylum  continues  to  be  conducted 
to  their  entire  satisfaction,  and  that,  with  the 
exception  of  one  inferior  officer,  dismissed  for 
misconduct,  the  whole  of  the  persons  employed 
have,  during  the  past  year,  faithfully  and  zea¬ 
lously  performed  the  duties  entrusted  to  them. 

The  Commissioners  in  Lunacy,  in  summing  up 
their  report  at  their  last  visit  in  June,  1856, 
write — “  On  the  whole,  the  Asylum  is  in  a  very 
satisfactory  state,  and  the  patients  are  evidently 
under  kind  and  judicious  treatment.” 


Since  the  1st  of  January,  1856,  115  patients 
have  been  admitted  ;  the  discharges  and  deaths 
during  the  same  period  amounting  to  88,  viz. : — 


Cured  or  relieved  .  •  * . 51 

Not  improved,  but  harmless,  and)  Q 
consigned  to  their  friends  . .  . . 

Escaped .  1 

Died  . . . .  33—88 


There  are  at  present  in  the  Asylum  122  males  &  162  females. 

The  building  mil  admit  of  an  alteration  at  a 
trifling  expense,  whereby  some  10  to  12  additional 
beds  for  female  patients  may  be  obtained  ;  but  as 
the  number  of  females  now  exceeds  by  seven  the 
number  provided  for  by  the  increased  accommo¬ 
dation  in  the  attics,  it  is  evident  that,  should  the 
number  of  female  patients  continue  to  increase  in 
the  same  proportion,  it  will  be  necessary  to  add 
some  day  and  sleeping  rooms  to  their  side  of  the 
building. 

The  attics  on  the  male  side  have  been  fitted  up 
according  to  the  suggestion  in  the  last  report : 
of  the  sum  of  £600  granted  for  that  purpose,  there 
remains  a  balance  of  £131  to  the  credit  of  the 
repair  fund,  and  it  is  not  probable  that  any  addi¬ 
tional  accommodation  will  be  required  on  that 
side. 

Offers  have  been  made  to  sell  to  the  Asylum 
about  13  acres  of  land,  at  a  price  of  £1600,  and 
it  was  resolved,  that  provided  the  consent  of  all 
the  Quarter  Sessions  could  be  obtained,  the  Yi- 


9 


siting  Justices  would  enter  into  a  negociation  for 
the  purchase.  This  additional  quantity  of  land 
would  be  cultivated  at  the  same  expense  of  hired 
labour  as  the  present  farm,  and  a  considerable 
saving  would  be  effected  in  the  purchase  of  pro¬ 
visions  (<£123  having  been  paid  for  potatoes  only 
during  the  past  year). 

The  Commissioners  in  Lunacy  recommended 
the  purchase  of  some  more  land  in  their  report  of 
1854,  as  a  means  of  providing  employment  for 
the  patients,  and  as  the  land  now  offered  adjoins 
that  which  belongs  to  the  Asylum,  the  Yisiting 
Justices  consider  the  purchase  desirable,  if  it  can 
be  effected  on  reasonable  terms. 

The  charge  for  patients  during  the  past  year 
has  been  10s.  per  head  weekly  ;  the  Committee 
of  Yisiting  Justices  are  of  opinion  that  it  may  be 
reduced  to  8s.  6d.  per  head,  and  have  accordingly 
ordered  such  a  reduction  to  be  made,  to  commence 
from  the  beginning  of  the  next  quarter.

COMMISSIONERS'  REPORT, 


Counties’  Asylum,  Abergavenny, 

23rd  July,  1856. 

There  are  at  present  277  patients  in  this  insti¬ 
tution,  viz.,  127  men  and  150  women.  We  found 
them  all  quiet  and  comfortable  to-day,  and  no  one 
was  under  instrumental  restraint  or  in  seclusion. 
In  general  the  clothing  was  good  and  clean,  and 
the  bedding  of  excellent  quality.  One  man  and 
three  women  were  in  bed. 

The  general  health  of  the  patients  is  good — 34 
of  them  are  at  present  under  medical  treatment. 

Since  the  last  visit  there  have  been  97  admis¬ 
sions  ;  and  within  the  same  period  54  have  been 
discharged,  and  32  have  died  from  various  causes. 

Mechanical  restraint  has  not  been  employed 
during  the  year,  and  seclusion  appears  to  be 
rarely  resorted  to. 

Prayers  are  read  as  usual  by  the  Chaplain,  and 
the  average  attendance  of  the  patients  appears  to 
be  about  130  on  Sundays  and  111  on  week  days. 

The  patients  are  employed  in  various  ways ;  and 
by  the  register  which  is  kept,  we  find  that  last 


11 


week  107  men  and  101  women  found  occupation 
in  various  ways. 

In  reference  to  the  recommendations  made  by 
the  Commissioners  who  last  visited,  we  find — 

1.  — That  some  additional  furniture  has  been 
placed  in  the  wards,  but  more  might  be  supplied 
with  advantage. 

2.  — That  the  walk  round  the  property  has  been 
nearly  completed. 

3.  — That  a  night  watch  has  been  established, 
and  found  to  be  very  useful. 

4.  — That  the  division  walls  between  the  airing 
courts  have  not  been  removed. 

5.  — The  occupation  of  the  patients  within  doors 
appears  to  have  been  somewhat  increased. 

6.  — The  farm  buildings  are  now  occupied  by 
the  engineer  and  gardener,  and  there  are  no 
patients  there. 

On  the  whole,  the  Asylum  is  in  a  very  credit¬ 
able  state,  and  the  patients  are  evidently  under 
kind  and  judicious  treatment.

TO  THE  COMMITTEE  OF  VISITORS 


OF  THE 


Report  of  Medical  Superintendent 

For  the  Year  1856. 


A  fifth,  year  (this  report  is  made  for  the  whole 
year,  and  the  Chairman’s  report  is  up  to  the  26th 
Dec.,  1856,)  has  now  elapsed  since  the  opening 
of  this  Asylum  for  the  reception  of  the  Insane 
Poor. 

At  the  close  of  1855  there  remained  in  the 
Asylum  257  patients,  viz.,  114  males  and  143 
females.  During  the  year  1856,  116  patients 
have  been  admitted,  viz.,  62  males  and  54  fe¬ 
males  ;  of  these,  one  male  was  a  criminal  lunatic 
admitted  under  a  warrant  of  the  Secretary  of 
State. 

The  re-admissions  during  the  year  amounted 
to  17,  viz.,  7  males  and  10  females. 

The  discharges  during  the  year  haye  amounted 
to  57.  yiz.,  34  males  and  23  females  :  of  these, 
33  males  and  20  females  were  recovered  or  re¬ 
lieved  ;  one  male  (the  criminal  lunatic)  succeeded 
in  effecting  his  escape,  and  three  females  were 
discharged  on  the  solicitation  of  friends,  and  on 


13 


tile  agreement  that  they  were  to  be  properly 
looked  after  and  taken  care  of. 

The  deaths  during  the  year  have  amounted  to 
34,  viz.,  20  males  and  14  females  ;  15  of  the 
deaths  occurred  in  persons  advanced  in  life,  vary¬ 
ing  from  58  to  83  years  of  age ;  and  the  average 
duration  of  life  in  the  whole  number  was  51  years. 

The  state  of  bodily  health  of  the  patients  ad¬ 
mitted  during  the  year  was  u  good/’  or  u  tolerably 
good,”  in  47  cases;  in  33  cases,  it  was  u  feeble,” 
and  complicated  with  various  diseases  ;  and  in  36 
cases  it  was  u  bad.”  The  cases  of  epileptic  mania 
admitted  during  the  year  have  amounted  to  11. 
The  average  daily  number  of  patients  resident 
during  the  year  have  amounted  to  275. 

There  now  remains  in  the  Asylum  278  patients, 
viz.,  120  males  and  158  females  ;  and  one  male 
and  three  females  are  out  on  trial  for  a  month’s 
leave  of  absence. 

The  general  health  of  the  establishment  has 
continued  to  be  satisfactory,  and  no  diseases  of  an 
epidemic  or  contagious  character  have  prevailed. 

The  criminal  lunatic,  who  escaped,  had  been 
committed  as  a  vagrant  for  three  months  to  the 
Hereford  County  Gaol.  During  his  imprisonment 
he  became  insane,  and  a  warrant  was  procured 
from  the  Secretary  of  State,  and  he  was  trans¬ 
mitted  to  this  Asylum.  He  laboured  under  the 
idea  that  three  months  was  the  term  of  his  im- 


14 


prisonment,  and  that  he  could  not  be  detained 
longer.  As  the  term  of  his  imprisonment  ap¬ 
proached  he  became  very  anxious,  and  was  fre¬ 
quently  observed  to  be  on  the  look  out.  On  one 
day  (a  Sunday),  when  most  of  the  inmates  were 
at  chapel,  he  succeeded  in  getting  over  the  wall, 
was  observed  in  the  garden,  and  immediately 
followed,  but  no  trace  of  him  could  be  discovered, 
nor  has  any  thing  been  heard  concerning  him  up 
to  the  present  time.  His  state  of  bodily  health 
was  however  good,  and  if  he  succeeded  in  reach¬ 
ing  Staffordshire,  where  he  had  been  previously 
employed,  it  is  probable  that  he  would  seek  for 
and  gain  employment  again. 

Ho  case  of  sudden  or  unexpected  death,  or  no 
accidents  of  any  consequence  have  occurred  du¬ 
ring  the  year. 

The  hereditary  taint  and  congenital  deficiency 
of  intellect  has,  as  usual,  formed  a  large  proportion 
of  the  admissions  during  the  year. 

The  supply  of  water  during  the  year  has  conti¬ 
nued  to  be  satisfactory. 

The  conduct  and  attention  of  the  attendants 
and  servants  to  their  respective  duties  have  gene¬ 
rally  been  good. 

The  established  dietary  continues  to  answer 
well,  and,  as  usual,  the  only  deviations  from  it 
have  been  on  the  grounds  of  sickness,  and  these 
have  been  few  and  unimportant. 

J.  8.  ALLEN. 


CHAPLAIN’S  RHPQRT. 


Abergayenny,  January  14th,  1857. 

Gentlemen, 

I  beg  leave  to  report  that  my  ministrations 
among  the  patients  of  this  Asylum  during  the 
past  year  have  been  attended  with  better  results 
than  persons  unacquainted  with  the  phenomena 
of  insanity  are  apt  to  imagine,  from  an  impression 
much  too  common,  though  on  the  decrease,  that 
madmen  are  entirely  different  from  sane  men, 
which  is  a  mistake — the  difference  in  most  cases 
not  being  radical  but  superficial — a  difference 
rather  in  the  accidents  than  in  the  essence  of 
human  nature.  The  daily  contact  with  the 
means  of  grace  (previously  almost  altogether 
avoided  perhaps)  into  which  many  are  brought 
while  chastened  by  suffering,  and  subdued  by 
the  salutary  discipline  to  which  they  have  to 
submit,  must,  among  some  of  those  who  become 
convalescent,  produce  those  religious  restraints 
which  tend  so  much  to  keep  the  mind  in  a  sound 


16 


state ;  while  many  of  those  who  suffer  from  in¬ 
sanity  in  a  chronic  form,  provided  they  are  not 
without  some  amount  of  understanding,  derive 
instruction  and  comfort  from  the  daily  services  ; 
and  even  those  who  are  not  possessed  of  under¬ 
standing,  find  them  an  agreeable  change  to  vary 
the  monotony  of  their  existence. 

The  patients  have  been  supplied  with  religious 
books  whenever  a  demand  occurred  ;  and  every 
personal  application  for  a  book  has  been  attended 
to,  provided  the  applicant  seemed  likely  to  take 
care  of  what  was  entrusted  to  him. 

I  have  the  honour  to  be, 

Your  obedient  servant, 

W.  G  DAVIES,  Chaplain.
