in the case of Michael Kelleher who was killed by George Mahan a patient in: Bellevue pital rendered the following We hnd that Michael came to his death by injuries inflicted by George E Mahan In view of the evidence before us we believe hat due care was not exercised by the officers in charge of the Alcoholic ward and in our opinion the system of ment is very defective The wards at all times should in our opinion be in charge of a responsible employee and we find that the orderlies are highly censurable for leaving the ward without putting the patient in charge of a responsible person We further recommend that furniture of the and of such a character and be so secured as to possibility of their use as weapons of offense by patients then sicned verdict ex-Mayor Wickham suggesting thai
