NOTES.—(1) As the papers
in the cases of lunatics discharged are returned to the
Magistrates, the only papers we saw were those of Mana Singh (No.
2) and
Jinda Shah (No. 12). The entries "from the papers" in all the other
cases are taken from the Asylum abstract. It is to be noted that
this
absract was found defective in one or two important points in the
cases of Mana Singh and Jinda Shah.
(2) It would be specially interesting to ascertain more of the
history of Mussammut Mooran (No. 8); as the abuse of hemp drugs by
women has
rarely been found connected with insanity.
(3) The above cases,
twelve in number, are all the admissions of 1892 ascribed to hemp
drugs in Statement VII and entered under "Toxic insanity"
in Statement VI. The total number of admissions was—
