Extract
Case 1.—S. E—, female. Admitted Jan. 22, 1866. Tried for wounding, with intent to murder, Dec, 1865. Found insane. She lived in a cellar with her husband and child. From the evidence given at the trial and from her own account, it appears that she wounded her child slightly with a razor in order to frighten her husband, who had treated her with great cruelty, into better behaviour. After she had been taken into custody it was found that “her mind was much shaken, and that she was the subject of delusions.”
