FROM THE HON'BLE COL. G. F. A. HARRIS, C.S.I., M.D., I.M.S.,
Inspector-General
of Civil Hospitals,
Bengal,
To THE SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT OF BENGAL,
FINANCIAL (MEDICAL) DEPARTMENT.
Dated Calcutta, the 15th April 1914.
SIR,
I have the honour to submit herewith the Annual Returns of the
Lunatic Asylums in this Presidency for the year 1913, with the following brief
notes thereon :—
2. Statement I—Admissions.—There was a falling off in admis
sions. which were 213 (including readmissions) as compared with 265 in
the previous year.
The decrease was shared by all the three lunatic
asylums, more than half of it occurring on the criminal side where there
were 27 fewer admissions. The falling off is believed to be due to a more
rigid discrimination on the part of the executive authorities in handing
over harmless lunatics to their friends and relatives instead of sending them
to asylums, and also to a certain extent to the Bihar and Orissa and Assam
Governments having discontinued sending their lunatics to the asylums of this
Presidency. Although the former Government obtained the consent of the
Government of Bengal to send its lunatics to the Berhampore Lunatic Asylum
temporarily, little or no advantage was taken of this concession probably
because the accommodation at the Patna Lunatic Asylum has been adequately
increased.
3. The figure 213 quoted above includes 27 cases of readmissions, of
which 12 were non-criminal and 15 criminal lunatics. Most of the criminal
lunatics readmitted were those who had been discharged from the lunatic
asylums to undergo trial in the courts. Those who had been made over to
friends and relatives as cured or improved enjoyed, in a majority of the
cases, long terms of immunity from relapse, the interval in one case having
been 23 years.
4. The falling off in the admissions, however, had no effect in arresting
the upward tendency of the daily average strength which rose from 1,063.43 to
1,084.51 in the year under report. This was due to fewer discharges (117
against 160) from the asylums, attributable, it is said, to the disinclination
of relatives and friends to come forward and take charge of lunatics considered
fit to be transferred to their care. The larger number of patients remaining
over from the previous year (viz., 1,064 against 1,044 of 1912) also helped to
swell the daily average strength.
5. Paying Patients.—There were 45 paying lunatics under treatment,
viz., 17 at the Bhawanipur Lunatic Asylum, 1 at Dacca and 27 at Berham-
pore ; of these 14 were discharged and 2 died, the daily average number
being 32.40.
6. Accommodation.—The total accommodation available in the three
lunatic asylums during the year was 1,094, against 1,044 in 1912. The increase
was in the Bhawanipur and Dacca Lunatic Asylums, where 10 and 40 addi-
tional cells, respectively, were provided.
6
attention. Several proposals have been considered, but so far no satisfactory
scheme has been suggested by which the accommodation can be substantially
increased at a moderate cost.
26. The following other projects towards increasing the efficiency of the
lunatic asylums have been carried out. In the Berhampore Lunatic Asylum
certain dormitories have been converted into single cubicles. Batten doors
have been provided on the sides of the gratings in certain barracks of the
Dacca Lunatic Asylum. The provision of electric lights and fans in the first-
and second-class rooms, as well as in the pauper wards of the Bhawanipur
Lunatic Asylum, and in the quarters of the Deputy Superintendent, Matron
and Overseer of that asylum, has been sanctioned, and the works are now in
progress. Additional quarters. with thatched roofs for 10 warders, were
constructed at the Bhawanipur Asylum on the roof of the existing warders'
quarters, but have not proved a success as these rooms are found to be
hot and uncomfortable. Two rooms have been set aside in this asylum
as " observation " rooms for first-class patients. Certain minor improvements,
such as raising the compound wall and constructing surface drains in
certain parts of this asylum and improvement of the floor of the verandah
of the administrative block, were also carried out during the year.
27 The draft of the revised Lunatic Asylum Manual is before Govern-
ment and will be published shortly.
28. Colonel Edwards was in charge of the Department during the
greater part of the year and inspected all the lunatic asylums.
29. The officers who held the charges of the three lunatic asylums are
noted below and my cordial thanks are due to all of, these officers for
careful and efficient management of these asylums, as well as to the Subordi-
nate Medical Staff for the unremitting help which they have each and all
given to the Superintendent and also for their individual good work.
Bhawanipur.—Captain
D. Munro, I.M.S., from 1st January to 5th
November 1913, and Captain N. H. Hume, I.M.S., from 8th
November to the end of the year. (There was no officer in
charge on the 6th and 7th November, Military Assistant
Surgeon L. McCurtis, the Deputy Superintendent, looked after
the management.)
Dacca.—Lieutenant-Colonel
A. R. S. Anderson, I.M.S., throughout the
year.
Berhampore.—Captain
A. S. M. Peebles, I.M.S., throughout the year.
I have the honour to be,
SIR,
Your most obedient servant,
G. F. A. HARRIS, M.D., COL., I.M.S.,
Inspector-General
of Civil Hospitals,
Bengal.
