Criminals.
102. There were 25 criminals treated during the year. Of these 19
remained from the previous year, 5 were admitted
during the year, and 1 of them was re-admitted,
1 was discharged cured, 1 was handed over to friends by Government Reso-
lution, and he was the re-admission, 3 died, and there remained at the close
of the year 20, or 1 more than in the preceding year. One only has been
troublesome. Their crimes were :—
12 murder.
1 attempt to murder.
3 theft.
1 do. with intent to murder.
3 grievous hurt.
2 mischief.
2 insult.
1 inability to find security for good conduct.
One, the female, is said to be improving. About one-half of this class have
been employed daily in grinding grain and in the menial work of the asylum.
The percentage of criminals in the daily average strength was 16.3, which
Dr. Wyllie says is higher than in any other asylum in this Presidency, but
less than in Bengal, where it is 21.4.
Women, their Employ-
ment, &c.
103. With regard to women and their employment, Dr. Wyllie says :—
" There were 19 women remaining at the beginning
of the year, and 8 were admitted. The discharged
aggregated 8 (including 4 deaths); 19 thus remain
at date, mostly cases of chronic mania and dementia of very pronounced
types. It is noted, however, that 2 are convalescent and 2 improving. A
daily average of 6 were employed in grain grinding, with evident advantage
both physically and mentally; while the moral benefit has been equally
marked in quietude and good order. The difficulty of employing the others
is matter for regret; as what with age, weakly health, want of intelligence
all attempts in this direction, such as spinning, &c., have resulted in failure.
Cotton-cleaning with the native charka might, however, succeed ; and I have
moreover, suggested to the Superintendent that a criminal female, now,
convalescent, should, when sufficiently recovered, be taught knitting by
daily attendance with the female prisoners in jail, and as she has in all
likelihood a long term of detention before her in respect of being charged
with the murder of her child, it may thus be possible to introduce this semi-
mechanical occupation—one well suited to meet in some degree the present
difficulty."
Out-door Employment, &c.
104. The out-door employment is in the garden and surrounding grounds,
and there is quite sufficient of it for all who can be
got to work. Dr. Wiehe says :—" On an average
35.7 per cent. were employed in gardening and 23.9 in levelling and improv-
ing the grounds : to all this is a healthy exercise, and to many it is a positive
enjoyment, while others perform the work mechanically without any intelli-
gent object."
In-door Employment.
105. Ten males and 6 females on an average were employed in-doors
grinding grain for the asylum and for the Hutteesing
and Premabhai Hospital, and 4 males and 2 females
were engaged in domestic work. Dr. Wiehe adds that " of an average
24
daily strength of 108.9 the daily average number employed was 71.6." This
gives a small increase as compared with the average for 1873-74. Dr. Wiehe
very judiciously remarks :—" It is scarcely possible to over-estimate the
importance of out-door employment, and I should be glad of an opportunity
of increasing the number of out-door labourers, as already suggested ; and
although the result might be very trifling in money value, yet the benefits,
physically and morally, would far out-weigh any financial consideration."
Value of Labour of Lunatics.
106. The value of the labour of all lunatics presents two distinct
features, viz., 1st, the actual money realized from
the work done or from garden produce ; and, 2nd,
the value of the work done for the benefit of the asylum itself, such as
keeping the asylum and grounds clean. Dr. Wiehe says that the realizations
were Rs. 808-4-0, and the value of unrealized labour was Rs. 936-10-0 ; of
the former sum Rs. 494-11-1 was paid into the Treasury as profit. The
following table shows the account :—

Food, Water, Clothing,
and Hygiene.
107. The food and water is all that can be desired. The clothing is of
jail manufacture, is strong, suitable, and economic.
The hygienic conditions of the asylum are satisfac-
tory. Dry-earth conservancy is still continued. The
poudrette is used to manure the garden, and the sewage of the asylum is also
used as an irrigating manure.
Expenditure.
108. The total expenditure was Rs. 10,363-10-1, or Rs. 941-3-5 less
than in the previous year. This is very satisfactory
considering the increase in the number of inmates
as compared with the preceding year, and reflects much credit on Dr. John-
son's superintendence. The saving was chiefly effected by the diet being
less costly under a system of contract than when purchased at the ruling
bazaar rates. It is anticipated that a further saving will be effected by
purchasing the clothing from the jail in future. The cost per patient was
Rs. 84-13-1 during the past year, or Rs. 21-15-0 less than in 1873-74.
Visitors.
109. The visitors were regular in their attend-
ance.
25
Conduct of Establishment.
110. Both Drs. Johnson and Wiehe speak in high terms of the conduct
of the establishment.
Dr. Wiehe is of opinion that
two more warders are necessary, especially to guard
those taken to out-door employment. Hitherto patients affected with chronic
mania, melancholia, and dementia have been allowed " to remain in-doors,
idle and listless, partly from want of warders and partly also from their own
aversion to move out of their groove, &c." This subject will be separately
represented. Drs. Wiehe and Johnson both commend the zeal and intelli-
gence of 2nd Class Hospital Assistant Joseph Soloman, who is the factotum
of the Superintendent. Dr. Johnson says:—"The care of the general manage-
ment, dieting, clothing, distribution of labour, grinding, &c., in the absence
of the Superintendent devolves upon him." He further suggests that
younger hospital assistants be placed under Mr. Soloman to learn the duties
in connection with the care and treatment of insanes.
SIR COWASJI JEHANGIER ASYLUM.
Site.
111. The Sir Cowasji Jehangir Asylum has been under the superin-
tendence of Dr. Holmsted during the whole year
It is situated on the left bank of the River Indus, on
the low-lying alluvial land between that river and the town of Hyderabad.
The accommodation has been found sufficient for the requirements of the
province of Sind.
The position is a central one for the province, being
conveniently situated as regards railway and river communications. The site
itself is, perhaps, objectionable on the score of its lying low and being within
the reach of the overflow of the river; other defects are gradually being
lessened. Dr. Miller, Deputy Surgeon-General in Sind, has found fault both
with the site and construction of this asylum. In my opinion it would
have been difficult to get a more convenient site than one in proximity to
Hyderabad, though, perhaps, a better one might have been selected on the
east side of the Fulaili River.
New Buildings.
112. The two new wards for criminal and refractory insanes having
been completed, have been found suitable for their
purposes.
Alterations.
113. The sleeping-blocks of earth in the women's quarters and some of
them in the men's wards have been removed. The
padded cells have been converted into quarters for
refractory insanes. The wall which was built round the women's quarter, has
been found of great benefit; it secures the inmates from intrusion, enables
them to sleep in the open air in the hot weather, " a no small boon, and one
which is found conducive to health." Within the wall there is water, a
bathing-tank, privy, and working-shed : so there is seldom any necessity for
any of the women going outside their own enclosure.
Proposal to wall in the
six Sleeping Male Wards
which are now bounded by
a milk-bush hedge.
114. Dr. Miller again urges that a wall be built on the boundary in
the place of the present milk-bush hedge. He states
the hedge can never be an effectual guard against
the insanes escaping; that it can never be a good
hedge without great cost in irrigating it; and that to
irrigate it thoroughly the four asylum wells might be

Food.
118. The food consists of 12 ozs. of flour (alternately wheat, jowari, and
bajri),12 ozs. of rice, ½ oz. of ghee, 3 ozs. dall (instead,
twice a week, 4 ozs. meat), 4 drachms curry-stuff,
4 ozs. vegetables. According to Dr. Lyon's food equivalents this gives—

The diet is sufficient both as regards quantity, quality, and variety.
Remained in the Asylum
at the end of the preceding
year.
Admissions.
119. At the end of the year 1873-74 there remained in the asylum 80
males and 17 females—total 97 ; 12 males were crimi-
nals. There were admitted 41 males and 6 females—
total 47. Of the 41 males 1 was a re-admission.
Four of the males admitted were criminals. Thirty-
four were Mussalmans and 13 Hindus.
Total treated.
The total treated in the year numbered 120 males and 23 females—
total 143; but, if we reckon the re-admission twice,
then there were 144 treated, being 4 more than in
the preceding year.
Discharged.
Twenty-seven males and 7 females were discharged—total 34. Five
of the males were criminals. Seventeen of those
discharged were cured, or 17.2 per cent. of daily
average strength. Sixteen were improved and transferred to the care of
friends.
Escape.
120. One male lunatic escaped, and has not been caught. Information
was received of his having been seen making his
way to Upper Sind. He had recovered, and would
not likely have been kept more than another month in the asylum.
Deaths.
121. Twelve males and 2 females died—total 14. This is double the
number shown in last report, and is 9.7 per cent.
of the total treated. The percentage of deaths is
14.1 on the average daily strengh. It would have been interesting to know
how long those who died had been inmates.
Causes of Death.
122. The year is said to have been a very unhealthy one in the Hyderabad
Districts as compared with the preceding one. The
causes of deaths were—1 apoplexy, 1 dysentery, 2
diarrhœa, 1 perforation of bowel caused by eating dirt, 1 from anoemia, and
8 from fever.
Sickness among Inmates.
123. Owing to the land in and about the asylum being flooded by the
rising of the waters of the Indus River the past year
was unhealthy; the admissions into hospital were 94
as compared with 50 in the previous year. Dr. Miller thinks it a matter
for congratulation that under the circumstances the sickness and mortality
have not been greater.
Remained at the end of
1874-75.
124. On the 31st March 1875 the inmates numbered 96, or 1 less than
at the end of the preceding year—82 males and 14
females. Eleven of the inmates are criminals.
30
139. Sind Division.—Fifty-seven insanes came under treatment in
civil hospitals, dispensaries, and jails. Dr. Miller says :—" The information
regarding these is meagre and not very satisfactory. But this is partly to be
expected when the circumstances under which these persons are brought
to hospital are taken into account. Insanity is not unfrequently feigned
by individuals who have been charged before Magistrates for committing
crimes. Others are supposed to be affected with insanity, generally in the
form of mania, who are merely labouring temporarily under the effects of
intoxicating drugs. And others again, known to the community as harmless
or idiotic, become occasionally excited, quarrelsome, and even dangerous.
This condition is, however, not permanent, but passes away after a few
days' confinement to the hospital; from which the sources and other causes
of irritation, which have culminated in the present paroxysm, being removed,
they quiet down to their previous imbecile, harmless condition, and from
which they may not be again disturbed for months."
140. In conclusion, I would add that the foregoing remarks show that
our exact knowledge of the extent of insanity among the general population
is very limited, as is also our knowledge of the condition of the insanes.
Perhaps some information in regard to numbers and condition might be
obtainable through the Revenue Officers.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient Servant,
WM. THOM,
Surgeon-General.
