REPORT
ON
THE RANGOON LUNATIC ASYLUM
FOR THE YEAR 1883.
RANGOON : PRINTED AT THE GOVERNMENT PRESS, 1884.
RESOLUTION
ON THE
REPORT ON THE RANGOON LUNATIC ASYLUM
FOR THE YEAR 1883.
Extract from the Proceedings of the Chief Commissioner, British Burma, in the Judicial Department,—
No. 142C, dated the 26th March 1884.
READ—
Report on the Rangoon Lunatic Asylum for the year 1883.
RESOLUTION.—In the Rangoon Lunatic Asylum accommodation is provided
for 255 patients. During the past year steps were taken to provide additional
accommodation for criminal lunatics, among whom there has from time to time
been some overcrowding. The work was in progress at the close of the year,
and is now almost complete. With a view to securing increased cleanliness, the
floors of some of the cottages were asphalted.
2. The total number of patients treated during the year was 245, of whom
228 were men and 17 women. The number remaining at the close of 1882 was
189. Fifty-six patients were admitted during the year, 43 were discharged, and
12 died, leaving 190 in the asylum at the close of the year. The daily average
of inmates was a little over 189 as compared with 177 in the previous year. The
largest number of patients under treatment at one time was 199. Although this
is less than the number for which accommodation is provided, there was some
overcrowding among criminal lunatics, who formed 37.96 per cent. of the total
number of patients. To relieve this, under the orders of the Chief Commissioner,
12 of the inmates who had been acquitted of various offences on the ground of
insanity but whom it was not deemed expedient to release, were transferred to the
Rangoon Jail. The number of criminal lunatics in the asylum at the close of the
year was 61 as compared with 70 at the end of 1882.
3. Of the 56 patients admitted during the year, 34 were Burmans, 13 Hindus,
8 Mahomedans, and 1 was a European. One patient was under 20 years of
age, 41 were between 20 and 40, 13 between 40 and 60, and 1 was over
60. Of 12 of the patients admitted the insanity is attributed to physical and of
16 to moral causes. The predisposing cause in the case of the remaining patients
admitted was not ascertained. Three cases are said to have been caused by
indulgence in ganja-smoking, a cause which is said of late years to have been
almost unknown in the asylum. Two out of the three sufferers from ganja were
Natives of continental India. The types of insanity among the patients admit-
ted did not materially differ from those of previous years. Cases of acute
mania and melancholia largely predominated. Ten persons not insane were
admitted. It may be presumed that most if not all of these were persons acquitted
of criminal charges on the ground of insanity. The treatment adopted is fully
described in the Superintendent's report. Such of the patients as are willing
( 2 )
to work are kept employed. The proportion of these amounts to about 80 per
cent. of the total number of patients. Nineteen patients were discharged as cured,
a number somewhat below the average of the past ten years. Besides these 24
patients were otherwise discharged. It is noticeable that no patients are shown
as having been made over to their friends during the year.
4. The health of the patients was good throughout the year. Although the
daily average number of sick patients (5.06) was somewhat larger than in 1882,
there were only 12 deaths as compared with 19 in the previous year. The pro-
portion of deaths to the daily average strength (6.35) was less than in any year
since 1877.
5. The total cost of the maintenance of the asylum was Rs. 19,551-13-3, of
which Rs. 8,922 were on account of superintendence and establishment and
Rs. 7,529-11-6 on account of diet. The strength of the establishment was
unchanged, but the cost was somewhat higher than in 1882 as the overseer drew
increased pay throughout the year. The gross cost was less by Rs. 4,203-0-5
than the cost in 1882, but the cost in that year was largely swelled by public
works charges. The receipts of the asylum amounted to Rs. 6,310-9-11, includ-
ing Rs. 6,073-9-11 received on account of the labour and produce of the labour
of patients and Rs. 237 received from paying patients. The average gross cost
of each lunatic under treatment was therefore Rs. 103-6-6 and the net cost
Rs. 76-10-5. The profits on manufactures are returned at Rs. 4,821-0-11 as com-
pared with Rs. 6,861-11-0 in the previous year. The cause of this decrease is
not explained. The receipts from paying patients were nearly double the receipts
on the same account in the previous year, but there can be little doubt that
much more should be contributed by the friends and relatives of civil patients.
Rules for the management of the asylum under Act XXXVI of 1858 are now
being framed, and provisions will be entered in them on the subject of the amount
to be paid on account of well-to-do patients and the means of recovering sums
due on this account.
6. The Chief Commissioner desires to acknowledge the continued interest and
attention with which Dr. Griffith has managed the asylum throughout the year
and to record his appreciation of the good service performed by Mr. Robinson, the
late Deputy Superintendent, whose death has occurred since the close of the year.
In filling the post of Deputy Superintendent, attention will be given to the sug-
gestion made by Dr. Sinclair that a medical subordinate should be appointed.

The rations were well cooked and no change has been made in the scale of
diet. The rations are inspected and passed by the Deputy Superintendent, both in
their raw and cooked state, and every attention was paid to the diet. The meals
have been issued at regular hours twice a day, and the same order and decency
of conduct during meals have been enforced.
Agreeably to instructions the allowance of meat is 8oz. from October to the
end of December.
POPULATION, ADMISSIONS, &c.
Statement No. I.—On the 31st December 1882 there were 189 inmates in the
asylum, namely, 178 males and 11 females. During 1883 there were 53 admis-
sions, 47 males and 6 females, and 3 re-admissions, males, bringing up the
number treated to 228 males and 17 females, and the gross total to 245.
In the same period the number of males discharged exceeded that of 1882
by 16, and the females were less by 9, being 40 and 3 for their respective sexes
as against 24 and 12.
The number of re-admissions for the year, that is of cases that had fallen ill
again after having recovered formerly, was 3 as against 8 of the previous year.
The following table explains statistically the admissions, discharges, and
deaths for the year under review:—

The daily average number of lunatics during the year was 189.08, or 178.48
males and 10.6 females, an increase of 11.83.
The maximum number reached on any one day was 199, being 187 males and
12 females on the 4th April; while on the 10th August the minimum was 184,
of which 175 were males and 9 females, a decrease of 12 in the former and 3 in
the latter.
There were no escapes during the year.
From Statement No. I it will be observed that the number admitted was 56,
or 13 less than 1882. The total cured was 7 less than the preceding period, and
the deaths 7 less than recorded in the previous year.
The percentage of cured to daily average strength was 10.05 as compared
with 14.67 of 1882, a difference of 4.62; of deaths to the average strength 6.72
males and no females; of cures as compared to admissions the percentage is 33.93
as opposed to 37.67 of the previous year; in other words a decrease of 3.74 and
of deaths 21.43 as compared to 27.53, or a decrease of 6.1.
The total number of cases treated during the year as compared with those of
the preceding seven years is as follows :—

Statement No. II.—Under this are shown the number of criminal lunatics con-
fined during the year 1883. Of these there remained at the end of 1882 68 males
and 2 females, while in that year 18 males and 3 females were admitted and
2 males re-admitted, making a total of 93 persons. Out of these 28 males and
1 female were discharged, transferred for trial, &c., 3 males died, and on the
31st December 1883 their remained 57 males and 4 females.
The daily average number confined under treatement was 62.36 males and
2.72 females.
During the year 28 men and 1 woman have been cured and removed from
the asylum by order of the local Government and 3 have died.
Statement No. III.—In this are classified the religion and the sex of the
admissions and the different parts from which they came : 34 were Burmans,
1 European, 13 Hindus, and 8 Mahomedans, being 50 males and 6 females.
Rangoon contributed 34, Prome 3, Bassein 6, Thayetmyo 4, Moulmein 6, Tavoy
1, Pegu 1, and Sandoway 1.
Statement No. IV gives the trade and occupation of the admissions : 25 were
coolies out of 56 shown, 5 bazaar-sellers, 3 professional beggars, 2 each clerks,
bookbinders, and cooks, 5 of no occupation, and 12 others of various callings.
( 10 )
females 28.3, against 1.80 and 20.45 respectively. There were 5.04 of male
attendants to males and females to their own sex 18.87 against 5.40 and 13.63
respectively of 1882.
Statement XI.—From the sale of proceeds of manufactures during 1883
Rs. 6,073-9-11 were remitted to the treasury as compared with Rs. 7,318-13-0 in
1882. Adding together the profit from manufactures and the amount realized
from patients, which makes up Rs. 5,058-0-11, and deducting this sum from the
total expenditure, or Rs. 19,551-13-3, we get a balance of Rs. 14,493-12-4 as the
actual cost to Government on account of the asylum during the year, and the
average cost of each inmate as Rs. 76-10-5 against Rs. 95-4-11 of 1882, or
Rs. 18-10-6 less than the previous year.
Taking into account the money received from relatives for the maintenance
of patients and the money value of the labour of the inmates, it is calculated that
each lunatic on an average contributed Rs. 33-5-9 to the asylum during the year
1883.
I am still of opinion that a little more pressure than was brought to bear on
the relatives of the confined lunatics may increase the amount paid by them.
The decrease in the sale (of proceeds) of manufactures is due to there being
very little demand for cooly-baskets as compared with that in 1881 and 1882.
GENERAL REMARKS.
Conduct of establishment.—Mr. Robinson, the Deputy Superintendent, although
in very bad health, continued in charge until the end of the year, when being
hopelessly ill he was compelled to leave on medical certificate. I can only report
what has been often said before of him, that he worked earnestly and efficiently
and that his conduct generally had been most satisfactory.
The two jemadars have also worked well and steadily during the year, and
taking charge of Mr. Robinson's duties whilst on two months' privilege leave gave
every satisfaction by their constant care of the insane patients. The warders and
rest of the establishment have also been efficient in the discharge of their various
duties, and there was no case demanding dismissal or punishment on account of
harsh or unkind behaviour to the insanes.
The hospital assistant, Khedu Ram, has also worked to the best of his ability
and has given satisfaction.
RANGOON:
