private and pauper patients asylum. identified drunkeness as a cause of insanity
Dr. J. W. Eastwood, medical superintendent of the
Dinsdale Park Retreat at Darlington. Like so many other Victorians, Eastwood had
witnessed phrenological delineations in which no deceit had been possible and in
which "the descriptions were so accurate as to afford striking evidence of the truth
of phrenology." In an article 'On craniology' in the Journal of Mental Science in
October 1871 he noted, from casts taken from his own skull and from those of his
patients, that at least some of the organs in Gall and Spurzheim's system were correct.
Reiterating the optimism and hopes of the phrenological alienists of the first half of
the century, Eastwood concluded his article: "If we are enabled by these means to
understand the morbid manifestations of the brain for the classification of its diseases,
and for the diagnosis of insanity, we shall render great service to the special branch
of the profession in which we are engaged."
Born Chesterfield. Physician, proprietor of licensed house for the insane and farmer
