    THE ROYAL ALBERT ASYLUM, LANCASTER: A TRAINING INSTITUTION FOR THE FEEBLE-MINDED BELONGING TO Lancashire, Yorkshire, Cheshire, Westmorland, Cumberland, Durham, and Northumberland. THIRTY-SEVENTH 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. ‘ 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. Principal and Secretary Mr. James Diggens. SEPTEMBER, 1901.
