HC Deb 03 February 1902 vol 102 c191
MR. JAMES O'CONNOR (Wicklow, W.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, if he can state the number of persons regarded as harmless lunatics at present in the Richmond Asylum?

MR. WYNDHAM

If the expression "harmless lunatics" means those who could with safety to themselves and society be at large without supervision, there are none such in the Richmond Asylum.
