es, such as throwing a pillow
about the room, tearing leaves from the plants, taking the
doctor's arm and walking down the hall, asking him to kiss
her. At such times she often looked quite bright, keen,
alert and amused. Towards the end she would give at times
playful answers, such as "I came to-day," or "This is the
Hall of Fame." This tapered off, so that by December, 1910,
she was perfectly well.

_Retrospectively_, the patient claimed not to remember the
upset at the dinner, or what happened afterward, although
recalling the trip to the Observation Pavilion. She denied
any memory of the journey to the hospital, but could tell
what ward she came to. How well the condition after that
was recalled, was not inquired into, except that she could
or would not explain further the utterances during the
first period. For the stupor period it is stated that she
remembered many external facts, but it is not clear in
which period they occurred.

_Catamnestic Note._ May, 1913: She has worked efficiently,
and is said to have been perfectly well.

CASE 3.--_Mary F._ Age: 21. Admitted to the Psychiatric
Institute June 28, 1902.

_F. H._ The mother died when the patient was five. The
father was living, an alcoholic and reckless man. Four
brothers and sisters died in infancy.

_P. H._ The patient was the only surviving child. She was
brought up in a convent and orphan asylum until 11, when
her father remarried. At 12 she had to go to work, hence
she had but little education. She was bright, efficient,
well liked by her employers (in one position five years).
As to her peculiarities, she was thought to be, perhaps, a
little headstrong, and was also described as always very
exact, rather quick-tempered and inclined to be irritable
when crossed.

She was married six months before admission and had a _baby
three weeks before admission_. The husband stated that when
the father found out she was pregnant, he spoke of killing
him. He frequently upbraided both husband and wife, though
he lived with them. Even after the child was born he
continued to be disagreeable.

The patient was rather low spirited and quieter after her
marriage. She worried over her illegitimate pregnancy and
