Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forty-Fourth Annual Report on the State of the Asylum, for the Relief of Persons: Deprived of the Use of Their Reason The time has again arrived when it becomes the duty of the Superintendent, under the rules, to present to the Managers his Annual Report of the condition and operations of the Asylum during the past year. In presenting the forty-fourth Annual Report it is gratifying to be able to say, that as far as the objects of the Institution are concerned, the year just concluded has been a successful one. The first Institution, in point of time, opened in this country for the treatment of Insanity on the improved system which had then but recently been established in England by the successful example of the York Retreat, its friends have cause to be gratified that so large an amount of good has been accomplished by it during each year of its existence, in restoring to the use of reason so many unhappy sufferers, and in furnishing an Asylum to many others whose disease unfitted them for intercourse with society, and whose infirmities disqualified them for taking proper care of themselves. It is also a subject for congratulation that, in consequence of the numerous improvements which have been made during the past few years, at no previous time has it been so well provided with every essential requisite for carrying out a thorough system of Hospital treatment, and with every comfort and convenience necessary to the welfare and happiness of its inmates.
