John Hull Taken to The Asylum at Longcliff.
Sheriff Hoover today took John Hull, a farmer living three miles south of McCoysburg, in Milroy township, to the state asylum for the insane at Logansport. The unfortunate man is a bachelor and his trouble is melancholia. He never has been violent, and talks rationally most of the time, but has spells or fits of despondency, which is a form of insanity. He appeared to be sick also, and it is hoped that a course of treatment In the asylum will restore him to health again. Hull is a brother-in-law of Edward McKinley, of Milroy township.
