Sol Tipple, near 80 and a respected Ruby Hill pioneer, arrived in Eureka violently unsettled. Examined by District Judge Breen and Dr. Roberts, he was declared insane and committed to the Reno Asylum for Mental Diseases. Sheriff Mahoney notified asylum authorities, with a staffer expected by Monday’s train to accompany him to Reno.

He remains highly regarded by longtime residents despite his affliction.
