Asylum Bill and Dorothea Dix Remembered in 1845 Debates
The State Chronicle recounts the 1845 North Carolina General Assembly discussion over erecting an insane asylum. Dorothea Dix urged a state asylum. Governor Ellis chaired a committee and supported a $100,000 plan, while Kennedy Rayner argued for funding. The tale includes anecdotes about Dobbin and Dix and notes the eventual push toward the Raleigh asylum “Dix Hill” and its lasting legacy.
