Changes Due to the Steady Growth
the institution Has Had Since
It Was Established

ummwmu

Only the Highest Class oi Patronage
Accepted—The Methods Used

Although Dr, Alvin l). Wadsworth
established Moss l~llll Sanitarium less
than five years ago. its growth has
been so steady and so marked that he.

has gotten out plans for an addition
that, in itself, will be fully as large as
the present institution, and this, too.
iii View of the fact that he has added
very considerable to the original sti'uu
turn.

The new addition is expected to
more than double the capacity oi‘ the
‘lmitat'iunl. loi undci' piesent condi-
tions fifteen patients c1111 bc fared for
at. a time, or 11 total of from icity to
fllty a year, whoi'eas. with the new
socilon,‘it. will be possible to have
trotti-
meat at 0110 time or 11. total of about
out1 hundred :1 1111211

Owing to the delays which would be
caused by the. weather, I)1'. Wadsworth
considers that it. would be inadvisable
to begin the new work until late next
spring 01' early Ill the summer, for it
will be. necessary to open up lunch of
the. present building, the intention be-
ing to make-the entire structure liar-
monize in architecture. The complet-
ed work will undoubtedly how 11 11111
jestic appearance. for the building at
the present time is decidedly on that
order. occupying as it does a. com
manding position 011 the brow of Moss
llill overlooking {king Island Sound
for ma1111iniles,uth waalk and
all of the surroun lug countiy. The
view from this vantage poiiil is indeed

 

 

 

1 11 maxniiiicctif. one.

The new addition will it's of fire
pioot construction and will have all
modern improvements. including an
elevator. It will be joined to its pan
out at the front of the. Iattci , and
like it, will be constructed at stone
and slave.

Since he purchased Moss Hill villa,

‘ which be converted into his sanitar-

iuni, Dr. Wadsworth has purchased so
much additional property in the vicin-
ity that. he has large recreation ground
and enough land to meet any future
contingency in branching out. Some
of his purchases of additional land he
made only recently. Dr. Wadsworth
built his first addition about two years
ago. This included 11 large amusement
parlor, in which is located a billard
table, musical instruments ,etc. Under
construction at the present. time, at.
the rear of the1 sanitariuni, and C(lil1
nected to it, is 11 stone and concrete
fire proof auto 1911.11.11 Above this

the whole being a icniindcr of the sur

"roundings of a. 'Venetian palace.

/

That Moss llill Sanitarium has
grown and prospered and intreased in
favor is due. of (1111111111. in the fine and
efficient treatment let-civcd them and
to the fact that ph11~i1i1111s realize that
patients recovciy is hastened b1 treat
ment in a small institution made
ideally homelike. and 11 heic they re-
ceive the constant and personal at-
tention of the, physician in charge. In
this respect. the conditions lit-1'13 arc
Well nigh perfect. Both Dr. and Airs.
Wadsworth are held in the highest cs
teem of the entire conimnnity, and it
is through their elicits that the peo-
ple of the city have 1011111. to contem-
plate an institution of this chaiucter
in an entirely dliteieiit light than they
previously had. Both the genial doc1
tor and M1s.Wadsw01th haVe been
most welcome additions to the sotiul
life of The Norwalks

‘ At. Moss Hill Sanitarium, Dr. Wads-
worth treats nervous cases and very
mild forms of mental disorders. He
takes there only patients who aie aoie
to place themselves in an institution
where the cost of treating them is no
object in hastening their early recov-
er .

‘ T111153 Hill origiifilly belonged to the
Quintard family. A, Frenchman by the
name of Moss puichased the property
in 1858,1111d gave his name to the hill

. and to the stone mansion which he

erected. Moss lived there for a brief
time only when the property was se-
cured by David Hatch, the son of a
well known Norwalk family Nathan
C. Ely took a half interest from Mr.
Hatch. M11 Ely proceedéd to raise
the building one story and otherwise
enlarge the house which had been
built after French ideas Here the
Ely family lived. until the death of
Mr. Ely, in 1886.

After Dr. WaGSWOrth acquired it in
1904 he brought about niimberous
chniiges, so that now its twenty-eight
rooms are fully equipped with gas,
electricity, Turkish .batbs and appara-
tus for hot air treatment. and other
therapeutic measures In fact, it was
made mailern in every respect for its
special purpose. The sanitarlum is if-
censed by the state. With its spacious
grounds, there is ample opportunity
for the patients to pursue outdoor

‘aclive as Constable Ambrose lh'ewci

 

life and exercises tennis, etc, whichi
Dr. Wadsworth considers no small iuo
tor in bringing about. an improvement
in the condition of his patients.

Dr. ‘Wadsworth himself is an unus-
suniing man of pleasing personality, is
an energetic 11nd thoughtful physician.
He is still 11 young man, having been
born May 8. 18711. at. West Eaton, Mad-
lson County. New York. His early ed-
ucation was obtained at Cazenovia
Seminary and Colgate College, Humil—
ton, New York. After graduating from
the. Philadelphia Medical College. in
1904, be. practiced for 11 time. in (let'-
inaiitown and Philadelphia, and was

tats. Even before his graduation from
th1,1 medical school he was engaged in
the. treatment. of mental disorders, so
tlial. his experience has been 11 long
one. After his stay in Pennsylvania,
be came to Connecticut. and for a time
was connected with Dr. (livcns' sani-
tarium. in Stamford. Later he pur-
chased the Rivervlew Sanitarium at
l‘1‘ibhkill-onthe-Hudson, removing it-
nally to larger and better quarters in
South Norwalk. Dr. Wadsworth mar-
ried Miss Marion button. a member of
one, of the prominent f'aiiiilies of West
Newton, Mass, in Boston, on April 22
film.

Dr. Wadsworth refers modestly to
the success which he has attained in
his chosen hold of labor. and the. moth.
ods be employs. H11 thoroughly likes
South Norwulk, and Is greatly pleased
by the hearty manner in which he has
bceii received here. I11 fact, he states,
no small share. of his patronage hits
been due, to the kindly things which
have been said by the people of The
Norwalks to i'elalflves and friends else.
where, and which have influenced pa-
tients in the choice of Moss liill Sani-
tarium as a place in “hub to I111 treat-

It Comes to Captain Jackson. anti

Maybe it Is a Joke

Burt Jackson. of the Sprine
dale section of Barton, has a Black
lland letter. It is in an curt-lope post
marked Long Branch, N. 1]., Doc, :5. l
p. 111. It is tllt‘ tracing of a. pretty
good-sized hand finished with ci'uym.
effect. The person who traced it. did
a neat job and was careful as to do
tails. For instance, a ring is shown
on one of the fingers, the finger-nails

 

‘lapt,

are all outlined and some of then
are shown to be broken. 'Way down
in the wrist is a small skull 11111

ever it. means, “4 every day."

Capt. Jackson didn‘t. seen] 11 bit

to friends yesterday. He isn‘t tht
kind that scores easily. lie .111in hc't-
sailed the seas too long to be fright
cued by any little blutt’ like a Black
Hand letter.

Just. why Capt.‘ Jackson should re
ceive 11 Black Hand It'tli,1l‘ is not very
clear. lie has enemies. of coursew—
cvei'y one has limp-what the enemies
he knows of are not of the class that
send Black Hand letters. In fact
they have gone about adjusting tlieti
grievances or supposed grievances ii
other ways. He is one of Darion‘r
grand jurors. but he. was elected 01111
a few weeks 1113.1). and, he has done
nothing official that he knows of in
those few weeks to warrant any such
picture as be was showing yesterday.
Picture is all it seems to be, for there
Is no demand for money. and n1
threat or command of any kind. lit

from the Black Hand tracing,
