Excerpt from Memoranda Regarding the Royal Lunatic Asylum, Infirmary, and Dispensary, of Montrose: With Observations on Some Other Institutions of a Like Nature, and an Appendix of Documents, Partly Relating to Restraint in the Treatment of Insanity The following memoranda may be safely affirmed to possess one virtue - fidelity. In drawing them up, the Preparer, having access to all necessary records, felt at liberty to select, arrange, comment, and infer, as his own judgment guided him. He is solely accountable, therefore, in regard to any peculiarities not existing in the materials themselves; and the Managers of the Institution, equally with the community at large, must be held perfectly free to discuss points on which he has hazarded Opinions. Owing to circumstances which need not be mentioned, the publication has been longer deferred than was expected but the delay, which explains a few incidental sentences, has allowed the introduction of some important matters not originally contemplated. This remark applies especially to authentic statements regarding several institutions at a distance from Montrose, and to various documents on the subject of restraint. These may give an interest to the Work much beyond what could have arisen from limitation to a single establishment, and tend, as is hoped, no less to benefit the individual Charity than to advance a science which has superlative claims on the attention of mankind.
