The investigation was conducted on expert lines ; medical investigators were appointed, and particulars were obtained of the manner in which foreign countries and the colonies were dealing with the question, pressing alike wherever our Western civilization has taken hold. The Commissioners divided their " material " into nine classes. Firstly, persons of unsound mind, a term equivalent to the word lunatic, indicating disorder of mind rather than any obvious congenital defect or malformation. Th...ese are the persons for whom the asylums were originally planned, and the Commissioners state that they are still the only class of mentally defective people adequately provided for by the State on account of their mental defect. The other eight classes contain all degrees of mental infirmity, from idiots who are in- capable of shielding themselves from common physical dangers, to the feeble-minded, who can earn a living in favourable and carefully guarded circumstances ; from moral imbeciles, on whom training and punishment has little or no deterrent effect, to the more hopeless inebriates, who drink, not from deliberate choice, but from lack of self-control, and power of will.
