Harvey Casto Pronounced Insane by Board of Doctors.
Harvey Oasto, the unfortunate man whose case was mentioned in this paper Tuesday, became so threatening in his conduct Tuesday that it was found necessary to place him in jail, where he kept calling out for aid about all night. He pounced upon the clothing of the prisoners there, Pat Miller and Eggleston from Mt. Ayr and tore their wearing apparel into shreds, riddling their shirts, coats and breeches. An insanity inquest Was held by Drs. Kresler, English and Gwin and he was found of unsound mind and an effort will be made to have him accepted at Longcliffe at onceowing to his rather violent tendencies. It is not probable that he will ever be restored to mental health.
