    THE ROYAL ALBERT ASYLUM, LANCASTER: A TRAINING INSTITUTION FOR THE FEEBLE-MINDED BELONGING TO Lancashire, Yorkshire, Cheshire, Westmorland, Cumberland, Durham, and Northumberland. FORTY SECOND ANNUAL REPORT. * God help the Imbecile ! more dark their lot Than dumb, or deaf, the cripple, or the blind : The closed soul-vision theirs, the blighted mind ; Babes though full-grown ; the page of life a blot. 1 Yet say, shall their affliction be abhorred ? Their need o’erlooked ? shall Charity pass by, Leave them to perish with averted eye ? Forbid, the love that burns to serve her Lord!’ OFFICES: THE ROYAL ALBERT ASYLUM, LANCASTER ; EXCHANGE CHAMBERS, BANK STREET, MANCHESTER, Medical Superintendent:—Dr. Archibald R. Douglas. Secretary :—Mr. Samuel Keir. NOVEMBER, 1906.
