potatoes might be all right. But
the same letter addressed to a so

Evans said the letters. 10 his

Jerome failed TO trip Evans on the
meaning OF instability. Evans
said the condition might last for a
few hours and the person was not
permanently insane. He said II
might be a pathological condition.
Jerome asked What kind OF a
pathological condition ?" but Evans
refused 70 answer and said TO DO so
would be unfair 10 himself
Evans looked over the letters and
finally decided upon one which
would give Jerome a point as TO
pathological conditions of Thaw's
mind. Jerome told him to explain.
Evans held up the letter and
spoke dramatically.

"No. doctor" sarcastically replied
Jerome. I'VE don't want you to, but
we can't stop YOU"
The net result OF the mornings
fight between Jerome and Evans
was an admission from Evans that
rhaw's letters alone were insuffi-
eicnt as a basis for the conclusion
that Thaw Is insane.
