ome
officials of that penitentiary, it appears that she is continuing to
have her old-time outbursts of temper, during which she becomes
absolutely unmanageable, and the only way to deal with her seems to
be to isolate her and leave her absolutely alone until she is over her
disturbed state. Between these attacks she behaves quite well, but
such behavior has to be encouraged by the granting of various
privileges.

CASE V.--J. J. M., aged 24 years, white male, is a well-built young
man, whose family history is unknown owing to his refusal to give it.
He was born at Chester, South Carolina, in 1885. Childhood and school
life uneventful as far as is known. He was a bright scholar of
ordinary intellectual attainments. His industrial career, which began
early in life, was, according to his statements, normal. He admits,
however, losing several positions on account of outbreaks of temper
during which he had fights with other employees. He had several
gonorrhoeal infections, the first one at the age of fifteen; was
infected with lues at a very early age. He used alcoholics to a
certain extent, and admits having been intoxicated on numerous
occasions. In 1906 he was struck on the head with a club by a
policeman. Later in the same year he received an injury to the head
during a street riot. Neither of these injuries was accompanied by any
untoward symptoms. In 1907 or 1908 he was struck on the head by an
overhead pump while riding on top of a car. Was unconscious for some
time afterwards, later got up and walked unassisted to a nearby
station, where he took a train to Cincinnati. There he was confined to
a hospital for ten days, undergoing treatment for this injury. He left
the hospital one day without being properly discharged; had no ill
after effects from this injury. In the summer of 1909 he was arrested
in Washington, in company with another fellow, for robbery. They were
both released on bond. The patient, however, left the jurisdiction,
and when the police went to a nearby city to arrest him he met them
with a loaded pistol. After considerable effort he was finally subdued
and arrested. His companion received a short term sentence, while the
patient was committed to five years in the Leavenworth Penitentiary.
At that time he was living on the earnings of a professional
prostitute, to whom he claims he had been married for several years.
