Can anyone please help me read an asylum case record please?

[Lisajb]

The word next to Result is Dich'd - discharged

and the two sentences above the paragraphs

"Incoherency - mutters to himself, refuses to raise his voice"
 (Original order of admission to Hayrock Lodge, dated August 11th 1860

Could be Haydock?

Thank you!!!!  It's so obvious now you've said!

Yes, it was Haydock Lodge Asylum he was originally admitted to, then later to Rainhill.
Thanks again xx

Hello -

The final paragraph reads : 'A surly truculent looking fellow, in whom, if the countenance be the index of the mind, the highest moral feelings are rudimental, for his aspect is most forbidding. Having been under strict discipline for several months, he was        Discharged 16 Sept 1861.'
