THE MENTALLY AFFLICTED.
EXAMINATION OF PATIENTS. At a meeting of the Howard League for Prison Reform held this week, the method of examining mental patients who are waiting to be charged in the Courts was criticised. The provisions for examination were regarded as inadequate, and the opinion was expressed that the public or mental hospitals would be a more suitable place for examinations to be'made. A resolution embodying the foregoing views has been forwarded to the Ministers of Justice and Health.
