Excerpt from Description of the Retreat, an Institution Near York, for Insane Persons of the Society of Friends: Containing an Account of Its Origin and Progress, the Modes of Treatment, and a Statement of Cases AT the present time, when a considerable degree of interest is 'excited respecting the treatment of insane persons, and when the government of our country has recently made it a subject of legislation, it is presumed that any account of existing institutions, which may throw light on the method of treating this deplorable class of our fellow-creatures, will not be unacceptable to the public. The Establishment which is described in the following pages, though on a small scale, has so far met the approbation of many judi cions persons, who have had an opportunity of minutely inspecting its internal economy and management, that I have'been induced to attempt such a representation, as it is hoped will be useful to those who are engaged in similar institutions.
