Annual Report cf the Directors and Su

During this time sixteen hundred and

nine have partaken of its benc-Uts, and

twelve hundred and eighty-one have been

discharged. Of this number seven hun

dred and forty-five have recovered.

This institution ha3 been very successful

in accomplishing the object of its design

and of those placed under the care of

tha Physicians, W. II. Rockwell, and O.

S. Lovejoy, within six months from the

attack, nine-tenths have recovered.

They pursue a mild, firm, and decided

moral treatment, and assist the. efforts of

by medicine, paying, at the same time

special regard to exercise and employ

diverting their minds from their peculiar delusions and awakens a natural, train

patient3 are allowed a full diet, except where physical disease requires it to be

prescribed and regulated. An excellent library is attached to the institution the
