1177 A. (cont.) came into possession of all the reports I could get from all of the country. Q. State in what condition you found the hospital, as to the treatment and care of the patients, during these 8 years of service? A. I always took pains and intended to find out whether there were any abuses of the patients, and as far as I could to understand about the internal workings of the institution. I do not remember that I ever found any case of abuse of a patient. I recollect one case where one of the patients, a large powerful man, a troublesome man got into a quarrel with another patient, I knew his family well.
