Another Price Gone Crazy.

Samuel N. Price, of Barkley Tp., was declared insane, on Wednesday of last week. The examination was conducted by Justices Burnham and Morgan, with Dr. V. E. Loughridge as medical examiner. He lives in Barkley tp., is 37 years old and has a wife and four children. He is melancholly, violent at times, and requires feeding ami constant watching. He imagines especially that some one thinks he helped steal the some S3OO his brother Thomas lost a few weeks ago, and which he had on deposit in the First Roller-log Bank, of Nubbin Ridge. A Iso thinks some one is prowling around trying to murder him. Application was made for his admission to the Logansport asylum, and being accepted he was taken there yesterday by Dept. Sheriff McColly. The family to which Mr. Price belousĀ®, very evidently has astrong tendency to insanity hereditary in the family, as four brothers before him have heen insane. Still one other brother is veiy eccentric, to say the least. One sister committed suicide, and was probably deranged when the act was committed.
