To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Haslam says : "•They have sometimes such a high degree of control over their minds, that when they have any particular purpose to carry, they will affect MEDICO-LEGAL RELATIONS, 149 to renounce their opinions which shall have been adjudged inconsistent, and it is well known that they have dissembled their resentment until a favorable opportunity has occurred of gratifying their revenge.*' A case cited by Lord Erskine, on the memor- able occasion of the trial of Hadfield for shoot- ing at the Ki...ng, forcibly illustrates one of these positions. The experience of those at all famil- iar with the character and conduct of the insane, abundantly proves the truthfulness of the whole.
Winslow, in a very able and highly interesting work on the obscure diseases of the brain and mind, says : ''The power of concealing delusions which confessed and even dangerous lunatics have been known to possess, when under the strictest and most searching examination, has often aston- ished persons unaccustomed to deal with them and not fully acquainted with the subtle pheno- mena of insanity.
