Event and letters of the events at Exter School "...for the Feeble Minded..." Two young men disappear and one is found only of bones and the other weak and unsure - mute but begins to regain.

Simple read, notes of the past.

As part of an asylum project at local library, this added just a little insight into what the old world was for those seen as different.

Not much detail or understanding of the hows and whys however still an interesting history.
