SIR,
I AM directed to acknowledge the Annual Report of the Lahore Luna-
tic Asylum for the year 1876. The Lieutenant-Governor observes that although
there was no cholera in the institution during the year, yet that the number of
deaths have been 46, or 17.6 per cent. of the daily average strength, which is
nearly as high as the past year, during which there was a severe epidemic of
cholera. The year was, however, exceedingly unhealthy; and the percentage
of deaths among the inmates of the Lahore Lunatic Asylum has only on two
occasions, viz., in 1871 and 1874, fallen below a percentage of 17 per cent. ; and
it is an ascertained fact that the mortality among the insane population is pro-
portionally far greater under similar circumstances than that of the sane
population.
2. The Lieutenant-Governor is glad to see that the system of making
those who are able to bear the expense pay for the maintenance of their insane
relations in the Asylum has been instituted.
3. With reference to the remarks of the Superintendent on the subject
of manufactures, His Honor does not anticipate any profit from the work of
the lunatics ; but he is glad to see attention paid to the subject, as there is no
reason that the flour required for the use of the institution should not be
ground within the walls, and that the coarse blanketing and cloth for the
dress of the lunatics should not be made by themselves. Sufficient occupation is
one of the best means of improving their mental condition.
I have, &c.,

SIR,
THE Lieutenant-Governor has read the Report on the Delhi Lunatic
Asylum for 1876, forwarded with your No. 54, of the 24th March, with much
interest, and notes with satisfaction that the number of men discharged cured
is very much higher than during last year. This result may fairly be attributed
to the great care taken by the Superintendent in the treatment and management
of lunatics and providing them with both work and recreation.
I have, &c.,

ANNUAL REPORT
ON
THE LUNATIC ASYLUMS IN THE PUNJAB
For the Year 1877.
No. 592, dated Lahore, 25th March 1878.
From—J. G. CORDERY, Esquire, Commissioner and Superintendent, Lahore Division,
To—The Officiating Secretary to Government, Punjab.
I HAVE the honor to forward the report by the Superintendent upon
the Lunatic Asylum at Lahore for the year 1877.
2. The returns show that there were 101 admissions during the year
against 43 recoveries and 39 deaths. The total number of inmates during the
year was 376 ; in addition to the recoveries, signs of improvement have shown
themselves in 26 cases.
3. The management of this institution was unfavorably contrasted dur-
ing the year with that of the Delhi Asylum as regards the employment of the
lunatics on manufactures. It was subsequently elicited that the difference
was mainly due to the fact that at Delhi all employment, in which any cash
return was realized, was included under the head of manufactures, whereas at
Lahore only skilled labour was so entered. Had the profits made at Lahore
been shown in the same way, they would have appeared as more than double
of those made at Delhi. The subject has received special attention from the
Superintendent during 1877 ; the results are fully given in paragraphs 8-10 of
his report, and will, it is hoped, be deemed more satisfactory.
No. 1123, dated Lahore, 16th May 1878.
From—Colonel C. H. HALL, Commissioner and Superintendent, Lahore Division,
To—The Officiating Secretary to Government, Punjab.
IN reply to your No. 1783, dated 29th April 1878,I have the honor
to submit copy of a report by the Superintendent, Lunatic Asylum, giving
detailed information on the points noted in your letter under reference.
2. Efforts are being made to realise the maintenance due on account of
the two private patients.
3. The scale of diet in the Asylum is much superior to that of the jails,
and no comparison appears to be possible, as the object kept in view in the
Asylum is to obtain the best quality procurable for the price.
4. The Superintendent considers it undesirable to decrease the establish-
ment, unless the average number of male lunatics should fall to 200. I am
also of opinion that to diminish the establishment so long as the number of
inmates exceeds 200 would be unsafe.
No. 75, dated 11th May 1878.
From—Surgeon-Major J. B. SCRIVEN, Superintendent, Lunatic Asylum,
To—The Commissioner and Superintendent, Lahore Division.
I HAVE the honor to acknowledge receipt of Government letter No. 1783, of 29th
April 1878, and in reply to inform you, with reference to paragraph 2, that the two paying
patients alluded to in the annual report of 1877 were Mrs. Thomas and Ali Mardan.
A bill has been three times sent to Mrs. Thomas's husband, who has not replied. A fourth
will now be enclosed to the head of the department of the State Railway in which he is serving,
with a letter requesting that he may be authoritatively reminded of the debt.
