That twenty-four inmates, eleven of

that is to say, there isn't any record
of the disposition of their cases, was
the report made last night to the hos
pital committee of the Board of Free
holders which is Investigating the con

following the finding of a charred
skeleton in the abandoned South Or

The report was made by Leonard H.

found in the asylum and OF whom no
record Of their discharge, escape or
death was found, were admitted as late
as 1903.
III his recapitulation Mr.. Conant
said:
1.-The medical histories appear to be
in good condition and are carefully
kept. but it is noticed hat in many
instances there are lapses of from six
months to five wears in the notes re-
lating to a patient. / also inc that the
Endorsement died or discharged on
commitment papers in the files have
been carelessly made, oneou dates
recorded and the record Endorsed on the
wrong papers"
The records as whipped into shape by
the accountants cover a period of thir-
ty-seven years, with some cases dating
as far back as 1857. There are $3.50
patients accounted for, 1900 of whom
we're in the institution last December.

right arm and leg. His mind is alert
and he is able to talk to some extent.
