Description | Andres Cause, originally from La Caune [Lacaune], in Languedoc, requests to be admitted to the Hospital. He suffers from dementia, has no one that can look after him and is sleeping in the street since he cannot find any accommodation. The petition is signed by Abraham Resin. A note in a different hand, signed by Bourdillon, Pastor, states that the petitioner should be admitted as he would otherwise certainly die. Pinned to the petition is a certificate from Demedis, a doctor, confirming the dementia, dated 24 July 1764 |
