WILLIAMS SBURG.
report of the Superintendent of the
Eastern Asylum.

WILLIAMSBURG. Va, Oct. 2I.- Special.
At the recent meeting Of the Eastern Lu
natc Asylum Board, the superintendent
DR.. j. ID. MOncure, submitted his annual
report, which will soon be printed. This
shows that the number OF inmates at the
beginning Of the year ending September 30
1890, was 30T; males, 2lS: females, lSl
Admitted during the year, rs; males, 6j;
females, 13; whole number treated, 40.
There were discharged, recovered, 30; i'm
proved, l. unimprOyed, 2: total, ~; died
during the year, 81; males, "a; females. /:
remaining at the esd Of this year, 402; males,
22l; females, Isl. Average number treated
during the year, 4O.
Owing to the already crowded condition
of the female department of the institute
only thirteen Of the seyenty-three female
applications could be received. He claims
that the recOyeries are above the average as
compared with the number of recent ad-
missions, for the report shows thirty.nine
recoyeries and seventy eight admissions,
which is fifty per cent, which is largely in
excess Of the usual average. which is gen.
orally about thirty per cent. OF the thirty
one deaths reported the report shows tnat
eleven, over One-third, being between the
ages Of sixty and eighty years, who under
ordinary circumstances could not be eX-
pected to survive much longer.
Typhoid fever being entirely unknown,
and for the last six years there has been but
one case Of pneumonia and but very few
cases OF consumption.
The superintentendent asks for $1,000
with which to construct building which
will contain kitchen, general dining
room, and store-rOom.
Regrets are expressed that nothing had
been done to protect the asylum from the
risk Of fire, as the amount appropriated by the
Legislature Is entirely too smallIt ITO make any
adequate provision to that end. as experts
declare that at least 5 900 will be required,
and only about $4,000 being available for
that purpose.
The buildings are reported TO be in good
condition. and many of the wards have
been painted throughout during the year.
Accompanying the report il the financial
statement OF the steward, which shows the
funds Of the institution to be in a very
gratifying condition. He reports having
collected on account Of the pay-patlent
fund during the year Si.244.l9, which rs less
by 81. 800 than that collected last year. The
superintendent closes his report by lavish
inc praise upon all the employees and
officers of the asylum.
He specially mentions Mr.. C.P. Armistead,
steward; John l.. Mercer, clerk, and W. II.
rOrham, chief engineer, and thanks them
for the fidelity which has characterized the
administration Of the respective offices and
says that they are entirely worthy of the
trust repOsed TN them. Thanks are eX-
tended to the directors for the cordial and
earnest support extended to him by that
body
