For the Year 1874.
DELHI LUNATIC ASYLUM.
No. 246, dated 3rd March 1875.
From—T. W. SMYTH, Esquire, Deputy Commissioner, Delhi,
To—Commissioner and Superintendent, Delhi Division.
I BEG to forward Dr. Taylor's report on the Delhi Lunatic Asylum for the past
year with the usual returns. I have visited the asylum several times since I took over
charge of the district, and was much pleased with the neatness, cleanliness, and comfort of the
establishment. The supervision is apparently good, and the inmates seem to be well looked
after and as contented as can be expected under the circumstances.
No. 90, dated 11th March 1875.
Endorsement by Commissioner, Delhi.
COPY of above, with the report in original, forwarded to Secretary to
Government, Punjab.
ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DELHI LUNATIC ASYLUM FOR 1874, BY SURGEON-MAJOR
A. TAYLOR, SUPERINTENDENT.
Dated Delhi, the 26th February 1875.
Topography.
I. Topography frequently doscribed in former reports.
Climate.
II. The month of January was very cold; the rest of the year was much as usual. The
rains were fair, or might bo called good, in July. Three inches only
fell in August, and 2.47 in September, in October none, and no more
fell during the rest of the year. The consequence was that heat was excessive in August and
September, and malaria disease was rife.
Buildings, repairs, im-
provements, &c.
III. Buildings are precisely the same as last year. There have been only the ordinary
annual repairs which have been entirely executed by convict or
lunatic labor, except those of the European ward. White ants
attacked the building, getting up into the roof; it was found necessary to take off the katcha
plaster from the walls and substitute cement. The observation ward is the only place not in
a satisfactory state; it is damp in the rains, and I do not use it much in consequence, except in
dry weather. Planting of trees is gone on with both inside and outside the asylum.
Drainage.
IV. Drainage is good in the asylum and country adjacent.
Cleanliness.
V. Cleanliness is enforced both as regards the wards, the grounds, and the persons of
the lunatics. Nothing can prevent entirely some of the most debased
of the lunatics from being guilty of filthy actions, but they are clean-
ed and washed, and all traces of pollution at once removed.
( 4 )
His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor, on his recent visit to this asylum in February last,
entered the following minute in the visitors' book, viz.—"I visited the Lunatic Asylum in
company with the Commissioner, Deputy Commissioner and Dr. Taylor, and found its
condition generally satisfactory. I approve of Dr. Taylor's recommendation of an increase to
the salary of the sergeant in charge after the financial pressure has passed."
The jamadár has given satisfaction.
The barkandazes and keepers are indolent and troublesome. I cannot get them to be
careful with or vigilant over the patients. They are repeatedly being fined for staying away
without leave beyond hours, for neglect, untidiness and remissness in guarding and tending
the lunatics. The menial establishment have worked fairly.
The bhishti's pay is only Rs. 4 a month. It should be raised to Rs. 5, as that is the
regular pay of such a servant in Delhi, and this man's work is continuous and heavy.

EXTRACTS FROM DELHI LUNATIC ASYLUM MINUTE BOOK.
8th January 1875.
I VISITED the Delhi Lunatic Asylum on the 8th of January 1875, accompanied by
the Superintendent, Dr, Taylor.
The institution was clean and neatly kept, and I was especially struck by the cleanly
look of the lunatics.
There were 50 male and 12 female lunatics. The unfortunate inmates all seemed well
cared for; had toys and pets to amuse them.
There was only 1 patient in hospital: she was convalescent.
The papers were correct.
A. M. DALLAS,
Inspector-General of Prisons,
Punjab.

4th February 1875.
I INSPECTED the Lunatic Asylum at Delhi, and found great improvements
in the place as well as in the health and appearance of the inmates. There are to-day
66 insanes in the asylum, of whom two are in hospital sick. I consider the diet and clothing now
sufficient, and attribute the great improvement in the health and appearance of these poor
creatures to the changes suggested by me in my former minutes. I do not think it necessary
now to go into great datails, but I would mention that the mortality has decreased from 28.57
per cent. of deaths to strength for 1872, and from 17.77 for 1873, to the very moderate per-
centage of 10.34 for 1874.
The total admissions to hospital for other than mental diseases have been 34, i. e, 56.89
admissions per cent. of strength. I consider this number rather small, and I invite Dr. Taylor's
attention to this point, because I consider that the mortality amongst the insane can only be
kept moderately low by great care and watchfulness in detecting their little ailments, and
thereby preventing attacks of serious disease. The ratio per cent. of sick to strength has
been 4.10 for the past year. There is no Hospital Assistant attached to this asylum, and
I am still of opinion that such a medical subordinate is necessary for the proper care of the
lunatics confined here.
JOHN N. TRESIDDER,
Dy. Surgeon-General, Indian Medical Department,
Umballa Circle.
