Brown, found guilty by the Grand Jury of forgery on seven bills of indictment came up for hearing before Chief Justice Sullivan. There was a large attendance of spectators in Court. For the King the counsel were H. J. Palmer, K. C., (in the absence of Attorney-General Peters) F. L. Haszord, K. C., and A. B. Warbur- ton, K. C. The prisoner was repre- sented by A. A. McLean, K. C., and W. A. Weeks. The indictment being read to the prisoner the clerk of the Court dc- manded of him : “Are you guilty or not guilty 'I " There was no reply to this, but iii- stead, Mr. McLean, for the priso- ner, asked lcave to submit the fol- lowing affidavits, which would show that the prisoner was not in a sound mental state or in a condition to instruct his counsel, and suggest- ing to the Court that according to section 96'! of the Criminal Code of Uanndcr if the prisoner is'shown‘to be in such a. state of mind that hc cannot understand the nature of his odence then it is the duty of the Court to hold a preliminary hearing to test his sanity. ' I, Peter Conroy oi Charlottetown in Queens County in Prince Edward Island, Medical Doctor make oath and say as follows:- I. That I am in the actual practice of the medical profession at Charlot- tetown in Queens County aforesaid. 2. That some time in September last I was requested by Mr. Herbert H. Brown brother of the said lddwin O. Brown to visit said Edwin O. Brown professionally at Queens County Jail to examine into his mental and physical condition. 3. That I deferred going to said Jail till the second day of October last when I called at the Jail and personally examined the said Edwin O. Brown. That I then found that tha said Edwin 0. Brown was of unsound mind. That I visited the said Jail on nine occasions since the second day of October last namely on the fourteenth day of Cctobsr last; twenty-first and twenty-second and thirtieth days of November last, the third and seventh days of Decem- ber last and the second seventh. and fourteenth day of January instant. 4. That Drs. Victor L. Goodwill and Donald Mchaughlan accompanied me to the Jail and took part in said examinations on four or five occss‘ ions and Dr. Goodwill accompanied me on at least two occasions. That Dr. Henry Johnson also accompanied us on several occasions. 5. That each visit occupied between two and three hours. 6. That after the personal examin- ations made by me and s. careful study of the case I am of opinion that the said Edwin O. Brown is now a person of unsound mind, anda proper person to be taken charge of and detained under care and treat- ment. 7. That I believe the prisoner has not a reasonable comprehension of his present position and he is not now competent to instruct Counsel as to his defence. (Sgd) PETER CONROY. I, Victor L. Goodwill of Charlotte- town in Queens County in Prince Edward Island, Medical Doctor, make oath and sayz- 1. That I am am the medical Su- perintendent of the Prince Edward Island Hospital for the Insane. Z. That in or about the month of October last I was consulted by Messrs A.A.McLean and W. A. Weeks of Charlottetown counsel for the above riamed Edwin 0. Brown about the said Edwin 0. Brown's then mental condition. That I cal- led at the jail to sec thc said Ed- win 0. Brown on or nboift the four- teenth day of November last. That 1 then personally examined said Ed- win O. Brown and on the tlrst visit I thought he had symptoms of in- sanity. That I visited him on eight occasion since the fourteenth day 'of November last namely on the twenty-second and thirtieth days of Novemberdast, the third and seven- th days of December last and the second seventh fourteenth and six- teenth days of January instant, and on each occasion I made a personal examination of the patient. That I was accompanied on all my visits except one by Doctor Peter Cdnroy and on several of nfy visits Doctors Donald McLaughlan and Henry John- son were present also. ' 3. That each visit occupied bet- ween two and three hours. That I observed the case closely and came to the conclusion that the said Ed- win O. Brown is a person of un- sound mlad and a proper person to be taken charge of and detsincd under care and treatment. ,4. I am prepared if the Court per- mits to give oral testimony in the matter. 5.

That I am in the actual prac tice of the medical profession at Charlottetown in Queens County aforesaid. 2. That previous to the prisoners arrest on the charges laid against him in the indictments now before this Honorable Court I was his phy- sician nnd I prescribed- for him for minor ailments. - 3. That early in the month of Sep-. tcnibcr last the .prisoner sent for mc :ind I visited him ut the jail. That I had then a long interview with him and I then observed clear evi- dence in him of mental derangement. 4. ‘That since my first visit in Sep tembcr I visited him several times at thc said 'jail in conjunction with Doctors Victor I.. Goodwill and Peter Conroy. 5. That I also visited him sion: and with Doctor Henry Johnson. 6. That on my several visits I ob served it gradually progressing men tal weakness. 7. That I dingnosell his disease as piiianoin and the delusions whicl usually appertain to cases of that kind are apparentlin the prisonar'i case. 8. That owing to the prisoner’s in- sanity I believe he is incapable of instructing counsel so as to he nblr to make :1 proper defence to tlil charges laid against him in the in- dictments now bvfore thc Court. 9. From my personal examinatior of thc said Edwin C. Brown I cnmr to the conclusion that he is a persor of unsound mind and a proper persoi to be tnkcu charge of and 'detained under cure and treatment. (Sud) D. McLAUGI-ILAN. MR. PALMER objected to th( course adoptcif, by the counsel for the defence. `He thought the affl- daviis did not contain sufficient cvi dence of the insanity of tho prisoner. I-Ie would call attention to tlu manner in which the ailldavits wcrl drawn. I-lc submitted to His Lord- ship that in this cuss where thc question of insanity was to com: into the affidavit the proper coursr would have been to advise the Attor nop llcncrul or the physician of tlu jail of thc couihition of thc prisonci bcfore going down to examine him llc could not shut his eyes to tin act that up to the time of the arrest of the prisoner-it few days before his incarceration he was engages upon a very important case, and ur to that time there were no symp toms oi' insanity, no eccciitricitic: that could throw any doubt upm. thc mind of a man as to_ the prison. cr's sanity. We had nothing whatever to do, said l\lr. Palmer, with the prisoucr’l. conduct at the time of the commiss ion of the crime. It the prisoner is in his proper senses there is no mn hotter able than ii young barrister to instruct counsel. There must br some very strong reason ,for thc statcnient. that the prisoner is in- sane no\v. Take these nffldnvits- therc is nothing in them to show that previously there was any symp- tom of insanity. ~ ` lun. Mni.nAN-if urn nmuuvun nie not s-uiflicient wc have the witnesses hero to bc examined. MR. PALMER clnimcd that criminals were men of n depraved and illitcratc class. If we take this ipsc dixit of thc medical iuen, the snme could apply to ull of these lf brought. up for serious crime. The sumc plea could be made, that they were of unsound mimi and unable to instruct counsel.

BROW This Case Now Before The Supreme ~Court=== Chief Justice Sullivan On The Bench== De- fence Pleads Insanity lheen fooled by artful men. Mn. 1ucLuAN-I rnnke the sugges- tion to the Court that the man is insane. If any doubt exists we will all the witnesses. I do not ask that un insane man be tried. The CHIEF JUSTICE-The ques- tion is whether he can conduct his defence; whether he understands the nature of the charge against him. It is the duty of counsel to establish in the mind of thc Court whether there is reasonable doubt as to thc sanity of the prisoner. lf there is reasonable doubt in my mind I will submit the question to n jury. The affidavits are a little bald. They swear the prisoner was unsound in mind. I look at the prisoner in the dock, and see nothing to lead nic to think lic is unsound in mind. I can- not say that I am satisfied from these atlirlavits. Dr. F. P. CONROY was then put :pon the witness stand. Examined ‘iy Mr. Mclienn he testified that he paid nine visits- to the jail since the .ind October last to see thc prisoner. ‘His condition then wus the snmc as it the present time. There has been io change in his disease since. His 'orm of insanity is characterized by ho delusion of oppression or per- secution on the part of certain per- sons-.1 form of paranoia.

It is absurd to any the pri- soncr was fcigning insanity. He vriccs a great many \lettci‘s but hcre is nothing in tlicin. I-Ie docs iot appreciate his position; docs not mow how he is going to get out of t. The witness said hc was positive .hc prisoner was insane now, and did iot think he could conduct his dc- (ence. Cross-examined by Mr. Palmer the .vitncss said that his experience of insanity was limited to what occurs in his regular practice as a city vractitioner. He was not an expert. He had been retained by H. H. Brown to ascertain thc condition of body and mind of thc prisoner.
