It is back of the chapel and opposite the home of Dr. Packard, head of the McLean asylum. , In Ifare kept "the harmlessly ln sane and people who,' attendants say, have been put there for financial rea sons, although they are perfectly sane. It is a brick building, set on top of a hill, and it Is the most impressive of ' the cluster of buildings that squat about. ' the administration building.
