Mrs. Wilson says that the girl was the only one in the house apart from John and the dog as the other servants were out helping a neighbour with the spring cleaning. The servants arrived back shortly after Mrs Wilson, and helped her to get the terrified girl into the bed. When the poor maiden was questioned, all she could do was pointing towards the study and gurgle about a purple haze and mist. Mrs Wilson’s Doctor, Dr Willams, was called and he diagnosed that the girl was suffering from a kind of dementia and had her removed to the Ashville Mental Institute in Woodgreen, London.
"so", Mrs. Wilson continued with a sense of remorse "the poor thing is committed to the asylum, she was such an angel"
