^ Thirty yean ago a clever author
< I"- wrote a booh in which he tried to
T /<?how that the geniuses of the world ;
-> ' had all boon insane. Today there
Hjpre doctors who are going further,
S and are propounding the startling i
theory that few, if any people are en- i
jM41tlr?ly sane! Mental specialists are al- i
' so telling foul of the legal test as to
What constitutes insanity as regards <
the responsibility of each of us for
5v breach of the law we may conies
anlt.
The law holds tl %t, in order to entitle
a person char, ed with a crime
/rv5Tto be acquitted on the ground of inp
! wanlty, It is not enough to show that
he was suffering from mental instability
or mental disease; or, in other
. words was insane at the time he com- <
mltted the act; but that the defence i
must go further and satisfy the jury i
that the mind of the accused was so
diseased that be did not know what
he was doing, or, if he did know
what he was doing, that he did not
know it was wronr to do it
The law inquires into the degree of
the insanity and its effect upon the
specific action of the accused.
A person who is without intellectual
faculties?a congenital idiot, or
who is permanently or totally insane
?is not criminally responsible at all.
for he cannot have had a criminal
Intent.
A person who is only partially or
only temporarily insane is not responsible
for an act done during and in
consequence of a phase of mental incapacity.
For example, a man suffering
from delirium tremens, which so
affects his mind that he is not conscious
of the nature of an act done by
him in one of his paroxysms is entitled
to a verdict of guilty but insane; |
which means that he will be detained
until he is cured.
It is these partial or occasional
darkenings of the mental faculties
that are the most usual and that give
rise to tne auricuity or determining
whether a person, is or is not responsible
in law for his act. For something
done during a lucid interval, an
occasional lunatic is considered to be
1 as much responsible as an entirely
sane person.
A partially insane person, such as
those who suffer from delusions, but
who, apart from the delusions, are of
capable understanding, can only be
considered irresponsible for what he
does in consequence of his delusion.
If A, for example, has the insane delusion
that B. is seeking to kill him,
and that in self-defense he must kill
B, and does so, he will not be guilty

of murder. But the fact that A fancies r
he is the Cham of Tartary will not a
secure his acquittal if he poisons hls.t
wife. Doctors contend however, that q
one delusion is sufficient to corrupt jt
the whole mind, and it is absured to t
say that a man with a delusion rea-lr
sons and acts in a logical way. ill
Nearly akin to the defense of in-.t
sanity is the defense of drunkenness, t
as to which it may be said that a a
drunken man must be presumed to
have intended the natural consequence
of his act, unless the Jury is satis- (
fied that his mind had b^en so affect?
ed by drink that he was incapable of
knowing what he was doing was likely
to inflict serious injury-. A case
in point in which it had to be decided
the liability of a man who, while ?
drunk, had murdered a girl. It was
held that temporary drunkenness,
weakening the will and mental pow- >
erb of the prisoner, was no excuse,
and that the criminal must be hang- T
ed.
It may be admitted that the legal

but they heve been arrivd at after
long experience, and so far the doctors
have not succeeded in framing
an alternate that would be at all
practicable. It must not be forgotten, 1
too that in criminal cases the accus- I
ed person has the protection of a Jury, t
and that juries give the prisoner the ?
benefit If there is any real doubt as t
to whether he was mentally derang- <
ed at the time he committed the act. ,
