Mrs Laura A Hanks committed to insane hospital in Rock Springs
Attorney Melvin returned from Rock Springs and entered quarantine after learning Mrs Hanks had been committed to the Insane Hospital at Rock Springs. She was moved to Evanston Institution after a brief Green River county jail stay. Reports say her violent behavior began two weeks prior after leaving Kemmerer and threats against prominent Rock Springs residents prompted confinement. Her mental condition has deteriorated over months, with several legal actions in progress involving a sheep outfit. An Ogden arrest for bogus checks was noted but dismissed due to believed mental unbalance.
