Dr. Blanchard’s Testimony Before the Grand Jury. FaLconwoop ASYLUM, June 28, In the matter of the letter in the Ex- aminer of Tuesday,the 27th inst., signed “A Witness,” mekiog numerous charges as to the mannerin which patients are treated at that institution: — The trustees, Hons. Messra Farquhar- Rogers aud McLean, visited the in- stitution this morning, the Grand Jury also making their cflicial inspection of the Asylum. The letter which appear- ed in the Exsminer was read, and also a written statement by Mary Jane Mc- Innis. After discussion it was decided that the Grand Jury hold an inquiry in- to the alleged charges, and the trustees retired, Snyra Dr. Blanchard, Medical Superioten- dent, was examined by Mr. Horace Has- zard, foreman, assisted by other jurors, as follows:— Q. You have heard the statement read with regard to the porridge ? son, A. Yes. Q. What is your opinion on that ? A. There is no doubt whatever that mouse dirt was found in the meal. When it was brought to my notice I had a microscopical and minute examina. tion made, and I forbade the use of the meal. I forbade its use before the ex: amination in order to be certain, then I had the meal sent back to the con- tractor. A new lot of meal came, and belore being used | had it examined, and there was the same report. Q. Alter that statement was made ? A. Yes,we sent it back and got a third lot which was good meal. Q. Mary Jane MelInnis had charge of the meal? A, No, she was one of the attendants. (). How was it the party in charge did not notice it? A. Inthe meal there were cockle seeds that really resemble mouse dirt. You could not tell it apart but the microscope will show it. Taere was both cockle seed snd mouse dirt. When it came to my notice | stopped the use of it at once. not Q. What about the milk? A. With regard to the milk, I have seen grounds init. J had Mr. McPhail write to the contractor two or three times or more and now the milk ia really good. I may add here that at mid-day every day | have a glass of milk and there was nothing wrong with it at al! for the last two months or more. Q. How long was this meal used be- fore its condition was discovered ? A. After it came to my knowledge it was notusedaday. It might have beep used a» month or mnths hefore When it came ‘to my knowledge I stop. ped it. Could not say bow long it was used. The contractor supplied it to the New Year. Mice don’t get into ic here. Q. What about the meat? A. The meat lately is good. Durirg ‘he wister 1t was bai, I spoke tothe storekeeper about it and told him he was not to receive the meat. It was not good merchantable meat. For the last three months the meat would be such as you could not object to. It was not first-class meat. Q. Was there any bad meat before that? A. I have seen it after it was taken up tothe table and I would not call it good meat. Q. Would that occur frequentiy ? A. I neversawit frequency. When a complaiat was brought to me I would examine the meat. The meat comes into the storeroom but it is not my duty A.
