2. French Retrospect
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 19 February 2018
Extract
This paper contains not only an account of some of the Dutch asylums, but a short résumé of the system of management and inspection. Their condition and arrangements appear to be good, and are very favourably spoken of by Dr. Billod. None of his remarks, however, call for special notice here, except one, which is an amusing commentary on the opinions of those who see in Gheel and similar colonies the perfection of asylum treatment. When at the Utrecht Asylum he saw two private patients who had escaped from Gheel in order to return to Utrecht, where they had formerly been under treatment.
