Excerpt from A Concise History of the Entire Abolition of Mechanical Restraint: In the Treatment of the Insane; And of the Introduction, Success, and Final Triumph of the Nonrestraint System In the following pages will be found a condensed but faithful statement of the origin and progress of the non-restraint system in lunacy, and the controversies connected with that origin. The system itself has triumphed over all opposition; and the claims of its Author have been universally acknowledged wherever the evidence of those claims has been accessible. The publication of the documents here brought forward seemed therefore only an act of duty, and the opportunity which it afforded for the expression of the Authors opinions upon important points connected with the judicious management of the insane, was not to be lost sight of. If the remarks here put forth shall tend in any degree to the amelioration of the condition of the insane, the object of the Author will be fully answered.
