Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report Made to the Legislature of New Hampshire on the Subject of the Insane: June Session, 1836
No. 5. Is a mechanic who had been in close confinement for six years. He committed homicide: and, if this institution had not been erected, would probably never have been permitted to leave his cell. He is now a useful mechanic, labors a great por tion of his time-often reads his bible and the public papers - is exceedingly rejoiced that this place has been provided for him; and blesses its founders and conductors daily for the benefits con ferred by it on himself and other inmates. He walks abroad and often attends church.
