EB- WHAT VIRGINIA GENTLEMAN
SAYS ABOUT Oua INSANE ASYLUM
Editor Inde:r: Iu a recent visit to West
Virginia. lay attention was drawn to
the Hospital for tho Insane" located
at the beautiful town of Weston, in
Lewis county, distan. from Clarksburg,
CD the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad,
twcnty.threO miles. Interest was
heightened by the painful fact that
there was very insufficient accom- .
mediation for this unfort innate class
in my own Stutc-East Virginia.
This building, in architectural taste,
no; excclled. now comfortably accomo.
dates 400 inmates, and whca compile.
ted will DO twelve hundred and eight
feet long. 1t is built Of beautiful blue
sandstone, taken from the near hills.
and is covered with slate, and fur.
nishsd with water, gas. and all impor.
tant improvements The whole cost
being near $SO0.O0O. 1t is ia the
most healthy section, and very near
tho centre Of the State.-I was glad
to hear that q block Of this beau.
tiful sandstone would DO on exhibition
at our Centennial. at Philadelphia;
aud the State Of West Virginia will
probably reap rich return for her
liberal contribution Of twenty thousand
dollars toward that grand occasion.
Fortunately. visiting at time Of q
meeting of tho Board Of Directors. l
saw more Of tho management than
would otherwise have dono. What
impressed aud surprised ME most was
Tic cheerful and homelike aspect Of the
place. The unfortunate inmates were
not only we'll cared for, and no doubt
judiciously treated-,hougb, Of that
I had no opportunity of judging-bu'
they we're treated with personal kind,
ness and consideration, aud those who
could be safely trusted. were admitted
on suitable occasions to friendly inter-
course with the families of those 10
charge Of them.-For instance on every
Friday ewing there is ball in the
large room used for the chapel on
which occasion there are two sets one
composed Of the patients, and the other
Of the families Of tho officers and their
friends from tho town citizens OIL
Weston. It was o source Of gre al
pleasure to witness this entertainment
and the joy cyiucel by tho patients,
onc.third Of tho uumber being present,
and all who participated danced with
spirit and propriety. Tho whole thing
was under the management of the
physicians in charge, who seemed tc
have everything under their watchfuI
control. In fue, the entire establish
mcus seemed to be run with system
and order. and with reference to the
welfare Of its inmates,
Tue personal kindness shown me- by
some Of the citizens OF Weston, ais,
gavc mo q kindly interest in tho town
which is handsomely located on the
West Fork Of the MOnongahela
surrounded by the beautiful and fertil'
bills Of that section.
