Insanity commission rules on marriage fixation case
In Atlantic, a man named Conrad Riveheirt was found insane by the insanity commission after arraignment on an insanity charge. He believed himself betrothed to a local woman, later claimed to have married her, and pursued her relatives, causing threats of further action. He previously harassed a widow named Mrs Hodge with letters while maintaining he would wed her. The case notes his general sanity aside from this delusion. A pastor Rev Aston, formerly of the local Presbyterian church, died recently in Gilroy, California and was brought home for burial. Governor Cummins appointed J. Goss of Attanta to the state pharmacy commission to replace the retiring member.
