Deaf mute Joseph Gertzolowitz freed after 35 years
Joseph Gertzolowitz a cutter who has been deaf and mute for decades was moved from Yard's Island to the Hebrew Sheltering and Immigrants Aid Society building at 229 East Broadway to await word from his sister Mrs Lottie Cohen. He spent 18 months in a Manhattan hospital for the insane after failing to communicate. His memory centers on living with his sister on Monroe Street and a previous wandering from home. Doctors had attributed his condition to frantic distress before his recovery. The Hebrew relief group seeks his relatives after Dr Phelson examined him.
