In 1844 the Poor Law Commissioners followed up a dispute with the Guardians of Leicester Union regarding the care of Pauper Lunatics by appointing Dr Samuel Hitch, an Assistant Poor Law Commissioner, to survey the treatment and condition of the pauper insane in Leicester and Birmingham Workhouses. At Leicester he exceeded his brief and surveyed the 13 insane on outdoor relief, 29 in the workhouse and 23 in the asylum. As such it is one of the earliest surveys of an area. This paper describes the dispute, the report and considers its aftermath.
1844年，济贫法专员针对与莱斯特联合救济院监护人在贫民疯人的照料问题上的争端采取了后续行动，任命助理济贫法专员塞缪尔·希奇医生调查莱斯特和伯明翰济贫院中的贫民精神病患者的治疗情况和状况。在莱斯特，他超出了自己的职责范围，调查了13名接受户外救济的精神病患者、29名在济贫院的患者以及23名在精神病院的患者。因此，这是对一个地区的最早调查之一。本文描述了这场争端、这份报告，并探讨了其后续影响。
