ASYLUMS
[Welland Tribune, 26 March 1897]
The crowding of our provincial asylums calls for prompt action on the part of the government. Insane persons are compelled to lie in jail for weeks before accommodation can be secured, greatly to the injury of such patients. Annie Oldfield of Niagara Falls, a very bad case, is still in jail, although her condition calls for a different treatment from that which the jail can offer. Special efforts should be made to have this young woman placed in an asylum without further delay.
