Like Ellis posted before, Asylums became a dumping ground for the unwanted, sometimes whether they had any mental illness at all. Many of the old institutions had cemetaries on site. This was done the same way most cities have an old Potter's feild. Hart's Island is a 'Potter's' feild in NYC that is operated and maintaned by DOCS. The state most likely in an effort to reduce costs (who want's to pay more taxes to take care of people nobody wants was the common though and unfortunately is still true in some cases today), probably reused this decorative casket and then transferred the interred to a plain pine box.
