tween the attorneys representing Gov.
Mickey, DR.. Alden and DR.. Nicholson.
in the matter of the removal of the
two physicians from the position of
superintendent and assistant at the
Norfolk asylum, the board of public
lands and buildings Thursday after
noon made a report Of it's inyestiga-
tons to the governor, holding in near
ly every particular hat the charges
made by the governor had not been
sustained. The board reported that no
deaths had occurred at the asylum as
a result of alleged cruelties practiced
by the attendants and employees; that
on occasions necessary violence had
been used by four of the attendants.
but hat this was not habitual and
two of the attendants had left the In
stitution and the other two were now
employed outside of the building. h
board found also that DIR. Alden had
been unable to maintain harmony be-
tween himself and first assistant and
the steward, who were not his own
appointees, but upon the demand Of
the governor this discord had ceased;
Neither OF the physicians was guilty
of keeping misleading records The
governor, upon being informed Of the
action of the board, said: 81 shall
look over the testimony carefully as
well as the findings of the board and
then shall take whatever action I
deem proper I'm the premises. Until
I read carefully the testimony I will
not discuss the boards report"
