The Chaloner sanity case in Virginia court
John Armstrong Chaloner the New York socialite and once husband of Amelie Rives is fighting to prove his sanity and reclaim a $1.5 million New York fortune. The forthcoming hearings in Albemarle County Virginia focus on his status after a Bloomingdale asylum stint and alleged family opposition. The saga ties to Stanford White and Harry Thaw, with Chaloner living at The Merry Mills near Cobham and aided by secretary Colonel Money.
