I would not say that Mrs. Rabsatt injured me in any way, The
scratches were not done by her but by the bushes. I cant remember how
my finger got cut.

I know accused. I examined him on 2 occasions
Monday 10th October, (yesterday and today). I was trying to make an
assessment of his personality, by the method of a psychiatric interview,
secondly to get an account of his early childhood and thirdly to do specific
psychological test.

During the interview, he was very cooperative his speech was slow as
he continued to pull small bits of hair out of h head. His reaction time
was not impaired but his vocabulary seemed limited for his age. His
emoti-nal state was inappropriate as he carried an unusual smile in
casual the background of a flat affect. He seemed ratherÁ

as I spoke to him.
He never spoke spontaneously only when spoken to. One gets the
impression that there is a paucity of ideas and a slow stream of thoughts
He showed no gross desorientation but he seemed vague and mixed up as
far as dates for certain events. He gave a history of having had bouts
of auditory and visual hallucinations.
He said that he can recall spending 3 years in one class and was
only promoted because of his age. He was known by his friends and brothers
and sisters as being very slow. He has been a leger and has few friends.
His psycho-sexual state was also grossly impaired. He spake of only one
female friend besides his sister and this is Mrs. Evelyn Rabsatt who he
still cares for.
