Department during July, 1878, 1,567. On file. New York City Asylum for the Insane, Ward's Island—In the matter of the testimony given by
Dr. Macdonald at the Coroner's inquest held on the body of Charles Reichhold, July 22, 1878, rela-tive to appointments, which is as follows :
11 The attendants are selected and appointed by the Commissioners of Charities and Correction. The more experience they have the fitter they would be for their duties. The nurses and attendants are generally appointed in other institutions by the Medical Superintendent. I should not have appointed I logan if I had the sole appointing powe', Hogan being rather a stupid man in the dis-charge of his duties."
The following statement was ordered to he inscribed upon the minutes The foregoing extract having been copied from the minutes of testimony taken before Coroner
Ellinger, at an inquest held on the body of Charles Reichhold, the Commissioners are constrained to place upon record the fact that appointments of attendants at the Asylum for the Insane are made only on the recommendation of the Medical Superintendent, that applicants are referred to him for examination in respect of their fitness ; if he approves of them they are appointed, if he does not approve of them, they are rejected. The Board of Commissioners simply receive applications as a matter of convenience. On the Medical Superintendent devolves the entire responsibility of accepting or declining to accept the candidates sent to him. His evidence on this point, without being clear, is calculated to create a wrong impression, and evidently did deceive the Jury, as they embodied in their verdict a conjure upon the method of appointment by the Commissioners which they erro-neously allege to exist.
