2. For about ten days she was somewhat different. She became quieter and at first lay muttering unintelligibly, saying some things about being killed, but speaking little, often restlessly tossing about and tremulous. She had to be tube-fed. On one day (July 1) she smiled more and talked more, said to the physician “You have been arrested for me--you arrested the first man that I ever--New York State--let me see that book” (note pad). Then she went on: “Oh, I am all apart--diamonds--they didn’t know--must I keep them clean?--what is your name?--that is another thing I would like to know.” But when asked what house she was in she said: “This is the same Ward’s Island” and then added, “How long have I been here?--there is my picture up there (register), who is that? (listening) it’s Ida ...” She began to sing softly. Then again she whined. “O mamma, mamma!” When asked how long she had been here, she said: “Since Decoration Day, when my father went in my sister’s house, nobody could catch up with me--somebody blackened her eyes.” When asked whether she was sick, she said “No, insane.” Although, as was stated, she said at one time, “This is the same Ward’s Island,” usually questions regarding orientation were not answered, as she gave few relevant replies, but she repeatedly said spontaneously that she was in “Hoboken or Bellevue,” and called the nurse by the name of a former teacher. A few days after this state had developed she had a fever. Once this rose to 104°. The fever lasted two weeks, coming down gradually. It was associated with a leucocytosis of 15,000 on June 29 (no differential count) and with coated tongue. No Widal (two examinations). No diazo (July 1). 3. Then while the temperature still lasted she developed a stupor which persisted for about a year. During this time her temperature rose to 100° without ascertainable cause. She lay for the most part motionless, changing her position but rarely; her expression was stolid; she retained and drooled saliva, wet and soiled herself. She never answered any questions; showed no interest whatever. At times she was quite stiff and very resistive but never cataleptic. Her extremities were cold and cyanotic. She had to be tube-fed throughout. During this time she lost much hair. After some months she occasionally gazed about furtively, or later watched everything when unaware of being observed; at this time she also smiled occasionally at amusing things, or perhaps said “yes” or “no” to questions, but usually was stolid when interrogated.
