The Case of Harry Thaw

The efforts to release Harry K Thaw from
Matteawan State Hospital are revealed in their
true light through remarkable paper published
by DR.. Austin Flint in the New York Medical
Journal DR.. Flint is an expert psychatrist and
knows whereof he speaks. The upshot of the
entire case as presented by him is that Thaw is
sadist of the most pronounced type. What this
signifies will be plain when we have grasped the
meaning of this term
The Count de SADIE 1--WE follow DR.. Flint
throughout Partisan, born in 174O While
serving as youth in the army he developed
an extreme lcentiate and finally committed
monstrous crime and sentenced to death.
Effecting his escape he later committed lust
murder, was sent to the Bastille, later to the
Charenton hospital, and died in 1915, insane.
This perverted sexo-maniac gave the name to
"a type of sex crime which, we may be thankful,
has been infrequent. A scanty dozen cases are
on record with clinical exactness.
Prof. GARNER defines sadsm that form of
sex perversion in which the victim is mutated
or otherwise violently treated. In it's first form
it is usually Platonic, the maniac performing his
acts in the imagination. second stage develops
when victims are mildly abused and flagellated.
In the third stage brutal injuries often leading
to death are inflicted on the ured dupe. In the
ribly mutilated and often torn to pieces.
Of this extreme type the notorious Jack the
Ripper" never captured but supposed to have
committed the Whitechapel murders of 1887 to
1889, is the plainest example. This degenerate
in his storms of frenzied lust would often disem-
bowel his victim after murder commit other
monstrous extravagances of mutilaton.
''Sadism," says Dr. Flint, lis the most i'm
portant form of sexual perversion, in that it

Entering life with a tainted heredity Thaw
became a homeopathic youth of almost uncon-
trollable passions. Before manhood he had de-
veloped into we'll defined paranoac with demen-
tia and criminal tendencies In 1908 the woman!
he afterwards married told him gruesome tale
of perversion and crime. This became the basis
of q long development of hallucination in which
the pervert imagined group OF wealthy de-
bauches in New York were Turing innocent young
rirls to their apartments to be violated and
druooed The idea became fixed in Thaws mind
that he was called of Providence to rescue these
GIRLS and punish the wretches. Finally his hal

poiac stvle he chose a spectacular manner of
numbering the victim with results familiar to all
