His asylum was more like a private hotel with paying guests than an establishment for the retention of the insane, and even to an outside observer the eccentricities of the doctor's family as he loved to call them were not more marked than many of the oddities possessed by people at large.
An idea, has a beginning, a middle and an end: an exposition, a development, a conclusion. Mr. Forbes Robertson, in his Lyceum revival of 1897, found several advantages in his retention.
