RESOLUTION
ON THE
REPORT ON THE RANGOON LUNATIC ASYLUM
FOR THE YEAR 1886.
Extract from the Proceedings of the Chief Commissioner, Burma, in the Judicial Department,—No. 77L.L.,
dated the 26th March 1887.
READ—
Report on the Rangoon Lunatic Asylum for the year 1886 with the Sanitary Commissioner's
review thereof.
RESOLUTION.—No change took place during the year in the management of
the Lunatic Asylum and no alterations of any importance were made in the
buildings, which are reported to be in good repair. Allowing 50 superficial feet
for each patient, the Asylum is capable of accommodating 255 patients. The daily
average strength of patients accommodated during 1886 was 216.51, the maximum
number confined on any one night was 229. At present, therefore, the Asylum
buildings provide sufficient accommodation for the patients to be treated. In the
next few years the number of patients may be expected to increase considerably in
consequence of the annexation of Upper Burma, as it is probable that patients
from that province will for some years to come be brought to Rangoon for treat-
ment. The number of patients remaining in the Asylum on the 1st January 1886
was 202, of whom 188 were males and 14 females. The admissions during the
year, including re-admissions, numbered 73 males and 6 females as against a total
of 72 in the previous year. The average daily population was 216.51, the total
population 281. Thirty-four male and two female lunatics were discharged during
the year. Of these 24 were discharged cured and nine were transferred to their
friends in an improved mental condition. Eighteen patients died during the year.
The number remaining in the Asylum at the close of the year was 227 as against
202 remaining at the end of 1885. Of the patients admitted 42 were Burmans,
26 were Hindus, six Mahomedans, and five Europeans or Eurasians. The majority
of the patients came from the large towns, Rangoon having sent 36, Moulmein
15, and Prome nine. Three lunatics were received from Upper Burma.
2. On the 1st January 1886 62 criminal lunatics remained in the Asylum
and 20 were admitted during 1886. Of these six died and four were discharged
in the course of the year, leaving 72 on the 31st December 1886. The number
of criminal lunatics discharged was much smaller than for several years past.
No cause is assigned for this fall in numbers and it must probably be regarded
as an accidental fluctuation.
3. The health of the inmates of the Asylum was below the average of previ-
ous years. The number of patients who died was 18 as against an average of
the last ten years of 17.9 ; the daily average sick was 8.03 as against 7.69, the
average of the preceding ten years. The majority of the deaths occurred among
patients who had been only a short time in the Asylum and who on admission
had been in a bad state of health. The commonest cause of death was general
( 2 )
debility. One patient committed suicide during the year by hanging himself
with a strip of gunny torn from his bed covering. This death does not appear to
have been facilitated in any way by lax supervision on the part of the Asylum
authorities.
4. The financial management of the Asylum during the year under review
was satisfactory. The total expenditure amounted to Rs. 21,731. Rs. 9,634 were
spent on establishment, Rs. 8,499 on diet, and Rs. 624 on clothing. The total
cost of each lunatic was Rs. 100-5-11 as against Rs. 111-4-8 in the previous
year. Rupees 545 were received from paying patients and Rs. 7,037 were earned
by the patients of the Asylum during the year. The net cost of the institution
to Government was consequently Rs. 14,149. The average net cost of each
patient was Rs. 65, or Rs. 19 less than in the previous year. It is satisfactory
to notice that the receipts from paying patients increased by nearly Rs. 100.
The principal occupations carried on in the Asylum are basket and broom making,
market gardening, and the keeping of a dairy. The latter establishment has
proved a success, the net profit during the year having amounted to Rs. 1,545.
The total profit from manufactures including the dairy was Rs, 7,037 as against
Rs. 4,649 in 1885.
By order of the Chief Commissioner,
E. S. SYMES,
Secretary.
REPORT
ON
THE RANGOON LUNATIC ASYLUM
For the year 1886.
From Surgeon-Major D. SINCLAIR, M.B., Inspector-General of Jails, with Civil Medical Administration,
Burma, to the Secretary to the Chief Commissioner, Burma,—No. 31-11, dated the 11th January 1887.
I HAVE the honour to forward the Report on the Rangoon Lunatic Asylum
for the year 1886. As in previous years, the Committee of Management appear
to have been thoroughly satisfied with the manner in which the duties connect-
ed with the institution have been discharged ; and at my visitations everything
relating to the housing, feeding, and clothing of the inmates, and to the sanitary
arrangements generally, appeared well attended to.
Annual Report on the Rangoon Lunatic Asylum for the year 1886.
Situation and Buildings.—The buildings have been kept in good repair.
As we had an average of 20 civil patients inclined to be violent, the 10 cells
for this class were not sufficient to accommodate the violent lunatics, and we were
obliged to place two beds in some of the dormitories and transfer a few other
lunatics to the criminal cells not occupied.
It appears then that the construction of a considerable number of additional
cells will very soon have to be considered, and more especially as we may expect
to have a larger number of admissions now that Upper Burma is annexed.
The alterations and improvements in the workshed, approved of by the Com-
mittee of Visitors, have all been completed and have contributed very materially
to the comfort, safety, and convenience of the inmates whilst at work.
Water-supply.—Good, but not abundant in the hot weather ; and steps will
have to be taken during the next season to construct two more wells.
Conservancy and Cleanliness.—Conducted as in former years.
Clothing and Bedding.—The clothing is in good order and of suitable quality,
but it was not procured as economically as in former years. This is explained
further on in the report.
Diet.—The same as last year, with the addition of the following for the use
of Bengal and Madras sepoys now being treated in the asylum :—

Occupation, &c.—The farm, dairy, and garden are profitably and most usefully
cultivated by the inmates as will be seen further on. These occupations have
proved valuable by contributing to the comfort, happiness, and restoration of
many patients. The amusement and recreation of the patients have not been
( 4 )
In former years the proportion was about 35.8 per cent. on admission, but this I
believe to be no fair representation of the real case, for persons were classified as
being in good health whose health was not indisputably bad. It is evidently of
considerable importance, however, to have correct information upon this point,
for the condition of the health has much to do with the issue of the case. The
chances of recovery, as one might expect, are less where the condition of the
health is bad, though not remarkably so, the proportion being 55.4 to 62. per
cent., but the chances of death are much greater, the percentage of deaths being
only 4.7 where the health was good and 13.6 where it was bad.
Every one of those admitted required and got some food or stimulant extra to
the ordinary diet during the first part of their treatment. We have an abundant
supply of milk and it has been used very freely as a restorative.
The general treatment of the patients has not varied materially from that
recorded in former reports.
