Insane Cases Use County Hospital System
Montesano April 1 Under chapter 105 the court must name a hospital in the county to detain arrested insane persons. Wards must be set aside in county hospitals or private hospitals if none exist. The county has a building but it is not operating, so a private hospital will be named when sanity is in question beyond reasonable doubt. The county physician will supervise such patients though no local hospital exists. The bill may be hard to operate in this county.
