Report Read by Secretary Lyaett at
tie Poor Board Meeting.
VISIT TO DANVILLB ASYLUM
Committee DUeover That tha Bill WJ
Not Mean What at First Was
Supposed- Report Explaialag
l tha Act of Assembly.
A meeting of the poor board held yes
terday afternoon transacted only rou
tine business axide from a rt-port pre
sented by Secretary K. J. Lynett and
Director Shotten, a committee appoint
ed to visit the state department In rela
tion to the measure passed by the law
legislature giving the Scranton district
state aid. The full text of the report
is a follows:
To the directors of the poor of Serauton
par district:
Vour committee appointed to Investi
gate and renort In relation to the re
quirements necessary for the district
to take ttdvantHce of the provision
of 4he act providing for the care of
Indigent Insane In poor districts ana to
ascertain the manner of keeping ac
counts between the state Institutions
and the commonwealth would respect
fully report:
That In accordance wltn instructions
of the board we visited Harrlsburg and
culled upon Auditor Ueneroi Mylin, to
whom we were kindly Introduced by
Captain John O. Delaney. That we
were cordially received by the auuiior
general who was not familiar with the
provisions of the bill. Having been
furnished with a copy of the measure.
and having read It. he acknowledged
the Justice of our claim and expressed
regrtt that the provisions of 'the bill
were not sufficiently broad to cover his
own county of Lancaster, which also
takes care of Its own Insane.
He mentioned ths first require
ment a certlllcate f the secretary of the
committee of lunacy of the board of
public charities that we had complied
with the requirements of the act.
This having been secured, the district
would be entitled to an allowance from
the state from the date of the approval
of the act by he governor. June L'6. 1895.
to be collected quarterly upon the re
quisition of the poor district authori
ties.
About the Norrlstown Asylum.
This allowance Is nut $125 per week.
as we supposed. It Is the actual cost
of maintenance In excess of $1.75 a
week which the district must pay. In
the expenses of maintenance may be
figured In the cost of carpet furniture
and any other supplies that may be
necessary, also any rvpalrs that may
be made upon the buildings, but the
cost of new buildings, nor the Interest
upon the cost of the buildings, cannot
be included. The Just proportion of the
coat of administration, such as salaries
of officers, etc.. may also be charged
In this bill. The amount paid by the
state to Norrls-town asylum, according
to a report shown us by the auditor gen
eral, was equal to $1.86 pe.r week for
each patient.
To take advantage of the provisions
of the bill It will be necessary to keep
seperate accounts of the cost of main'
talning the Insane, as quarterly ac-
counts must be made to the state un
der oath of a majority of the members
of the board. These accounts must be
submitted to and approved by the see
retary of the eommKtee of the board of
public charities and approved by him
Accounts must also be rendered of all
moneys from whatever source received
for the maintenance of the insane, and
the amount of such receipts will be de
ducted from the amount payable by the
state.
The accoun-ta between the state and
the state Institutions are not at all com
plicated. They simply Involve a quar
terly statement, and a quarterly roll
of Inmaites with the number of weeks
of treatment set forth. But as we have
never kept a separate account of the
cost of maintaining Insane, and as In
the case of the Insane asylums the
farms belnog to the state, while In
our case the farm belongs to the poor
district, the new ww will Involve a re
volution In the system of bookkeeping
e.t Hillside Home and probably the em
ployment of a clerk to keep the ac
counts. Mnt Notify Board of Charities.
We, therefore, recommend: First, that
a committee be appointed to communi
cate with Cadwallader Blddle, secre
tary of the board of public charities,
to procure thcertlncate -that we have
complied with 'the requirement of the
act.
Second, that a committee be appoint'
ed to devise a system of accounts to be
kept at Hillside Home whereby the ex
act cost of the maintenance of the In
sane may be determined.
Your committee would further report
that our visit to the Danville Insane
asylum was made pleasant by many
courtesies at the nanus or superintend
ent Meredith, Dr. Adams, a resident
physician, and Mr. Oath, the clerk, and
that. In accordance with your instruc
tions, we made Inquiries as to the terms
with and treatment of the attendants.
We find that the authority of the au
perlntenden-t In the hiring, placing and
dlsr-harge or neip is absolute.
Attendants are on duty from S a. m
to p. m., when they go to bed. They
are expected to be on duty every day
and always In the wards with their pa
tients In view. At meal times half of
the number of attendants remain In
the wards, while the other half go to
dinner. Attendants are given one week
vacation every six months with pay,
one-half day every week and part of
every third Hunday on their turns. In
addition to this the men are allowed to
spend Sunday evenings out on their
turns. The female help not being
granted this privilege have. In lieu of
It, the rlghit to take two additional
weeks off each year without pay at
their option. A change Is now meditat
ed by which, Instead of the two weeks
without pay, the female attendants will
be allowed two hours a week wMh pay,
The schedule of wage In a follows:
The Schedule of Wages.
For female attendants First . six
months, $14; after that, $16 to $17, ac
cording to time of service and efficiency.
Two dollars per month is retained for
the first slv months, to -be forfeited If
the attendant leave for any reason.
For male attendant (Eighteen dol
lar for the first six months, and $22,
$24 and $25 ier month afterward, ac
cording to term of service and efnolen
cy. Three dollars per month Is retained
for the first six month, to be forfeited
if the attendant leave for. any reason,
We were particularly Impressed with
a book known a the "Nurses' Report,"
which contain a record of the doctor's
Instruction as to sick Inmate and the
nurses' report a to how they were car
ried out. Such a system should be
adopted In our Institution.
We were kindly escorted through the
Institution and were agreeably sur
prised by the home-like comfort, even
luxury; wun wmcn tne remaie depart
ment I furnished. There were carpets
on all the halls, and in every room, and
the halls were plentifully supplied with
easy chairs, sofa and couches, upon
which the patients might take needed
rest. Under tne provision of the. In
digent Insane act, we hope that the
board may be able to supply like com
forts In our own Institution at the coat
of tha atate. - - ' Thomas Shotten,
