MILLER: George MAN IN "SEPTEMBER MORN" STUNT CAUSES SENSATION-IS INSANE "Cap" Miller, Character Well Known In Local Police Circles, Is In Toils And Will Be Sent To Asylum "Cap" Miller, a carferry sailor, who is well known in police circles of this city and other lake ports, and who has faced charges of assaulting an officer, pretty thievery and other complaints in court and has served time both in the county jail and at Waupun, is again in the toils. Miller, as result of his latest escapade, was examined for his sanity and will probably be committed to the Northern hospital at Oshkosh. Miller was taken into custody on Franklin street by Officer Deuno yesterday afternoon when complaints from residents of the street kept the wires to the station hot for some time. Investigating, Officer Deuno found Miller on the street, clothed in little more than a smile and assaying a September Morn pose. The man was hurried from the street and clothing provided for him after which he was taken to the station and locked up. The man was in maudlin condition, due, it is said to excessive use of drugs and physicians who attended him advised that the man's mental condition be examined into. Officer Deune, acting upon the suggestion, had Miller taken into court this afternoon and an insanity examination was ordered and it is probably that Mill will be sent to Oshkosh. Miller, who has been sentenced to Waupun by Judge Schmidt in municipal court on two occasions, one time for highway robbery and another for grand larceny, has been committed in jail here on many occasions. The last time he was up Miller was charges with stealing four shirts form a Washington street store and at that time was sentenced to five days and told to leave town on penalty of again being committed. For several months Miller has given the city a wide berth and his appearance here yesterday was a surprise to the police. Miller is a man past middle age but it is said possessed a remarkable strength, the police saying that the man, when ugly, can handle four men without trouble. Capt. Carle, of the local police, has had one or two run ins with Miller but has always succeeded in getting his man. Miller was adjudged insane in probate court this afternoon and committed to the Northern hospital at Oshkosh.

MUNDT: Mrs. Emma Who lives just south of Manitowoc, has had to be taken to the state mental facility in Oshkosh. The unfortunate lady has only been married about a year. Der Nord Westen 15 November 1906 ***** Who had been furloughed from the state mental facility in Oshkosh, had to be returned there because her condition worsened. Der Nord Westen 05 March 1908 ***** COURT RULES SHE IS SANE. To combat the suit for divorce filed by her husband, based upon a charge that she was insane at the time he married her and had been since, Mrs. Emma Mundt, a town of Gibson woman, filed a petition in probate court asking for a re-examination and to be declared sane, and in the hearing held Saturday morning, the court granted a discharge and declared Mrs. Mundt sane. It is now said Mrs. Mundt will file a contesting suit against her husband and will make sensational charges against Mundt. Mrs. Mundt, who is 31 years of age, was committed to the Northern hospital at Oshkosh in November 1906 but in January the following year was paroled upon request of her husband and returned to her home in Gibson. In February 1908, Mrs. Mundt was again taken to Oshkosh, remaining at the asylum until January this year when she was again paroled in care of her parents and has since made her home with them. Following rumors that her husband would seek a divorce that she was insane, Mrs. Mundt petitioned probate court for her discharge and to be declared sane and upon the examination of two physicians, the petition was granted. Friends of Mrs. Mundt say that in the counter suit which she will file against her husband she will allege that her commitment to the asylum was due to domestic troubles in the Mundt home, for which her husband was responsible, charging cruelty. Mundt is prominent in Gibson and (sic) that section of the county and the case promises to arouse widespread interest. Albert Mundt, the husband, is a prosperous farmer. Under the law Mrs. Mundt was privileged to file a petition for re-examination and discharge or the petition could have been filed by friends.- Manitowoc Herald.

MURPHY: Evelyn JURY SAYS SHE IS INSANE Evelyn Murphy is Taken to the Asylum at Oshkosh to Be Cared for in Future PATHOS IN HER LIFE STORY Girl at One Time a Teacher in County and Had Brilliant Promise of Future; Family Afflicted with Insanity Under the verdict rendered by the jury in the examination held in Probate Court Wednesday, Evelyn Murphy, the former teacher whose case has been a puzzle to the local authorities since she came here from St. Paul ten days ago, will be committed to the Northern Hospital for Insane at Oshkosh, the woman having been declared incompetent and mentally unsound. The decision of the jury came after an hour of deliberation and was somewhat unexpected in view of the intimation that was given that there was likely to be a disagreement, this having been thought probable when the jury returned to the court to inquire as to what disposition would be made of the cae in the event that there was no agreement. No emotion was shown by Miss Murphy when the verdict was announced and she offered no resistance to returning to the asylum where she was to await transfer to Oshkosh. The woman maintains that she is sane and competent of caring for herself and when, in the course of the inquiry before the court, she testified in her own behalf. there was nothing in her appearance or responses to indicate that her mind is unbalanced. However, the evidence of the physicians in facts submitted led the jury to a belief that she should be cared for and the verdict resulted. The store of the life of Evelyn Murphy is one that is filled with pathos and arouses sympathy among those who knew her in other days. Years ago, when a teacher in the county, the woman was possessed of a bright mind and talents that promised much.She was the first stenographer in the city and many who are today engaged in that work in the city received instruction from her. For two years after giving up teaching, she was confined to her bed by serious illness, due to nervousness and prostration believed to have been largely imagination. Following her recovery she departed from the city and located in Minneapolis where she again engaged in teaching. From that time Manitowoc knew nothing of her until her return a short time ago but the history of her life the past few years is told in the letters recently received in court which tell of her having located in New Salem, N.D., where she resided on a government claim for four years. Two years after taking up her abode on the claim, the house was destroyed by fire, started from the sparks of an engine of a railway which passed the place and thereafter, the woman made her abode in a "shack". scarcely fit for animals. Twice she was taken into custody for examinations as to her sanity and both times physicians were baffled and gave her freedom. Becoming imbued with a mania for writing poetry, she corresponded with a Chicago publisher, who sought to secure a sum of money from her on promise of publishing her book. Failing to raise the money, the woman suddenly disappeared from the vicinity, taking a horse with her and until inquiry was sent from here, nothing was known at New Salem of her whereabouts. Having proved the claim, Miss Murphy is possessor of a 120 acre farm in which there is a mortgage of $180 and several years' unpaid taxes. She refused to sell the property and it has been one of her hallucinations that people are trying to rob her of the land. Since coming here, Miss Murphy has been cared for at the asylum and in court Wednesday presented an appearance much improved from that on her arrival. Inquiry has developed the fact that the woman's mother is insane at Colorado and an aunt is also under restraint. While there is little hope Miss Murphy will recover, it is a kindness that the jury provided for her future. She was taken to Oshkosh today.

NOTZ: John FATHER OF ELEVEN, TUBERCULAR VICTIM, SENT TO ASYLUM John Notz, 56. Is Adjudged Insane Following Peculiar Actions At County Sanitorium Where He Was A Patient Father of eleven children, a victim of tuberculosis and rapidly failing from ravages of the disease, John Notz, an old resident of the city, was yesterday committed to the Northern Hospital at Oshkosh, having been adjudged insane by physicians who conducted an examination in probate court. Notz is 56 years of age and had resided here most of his life. Recently he was found to be suffering from tuberculosis and was admitted to the Maple Crest sanatorium at Whitelaw where he was to receive treatment. Notz, upon his arrival at the county institution, began acting in strange manner and is said to have caused the superintendent and attendants much annoyance. The man was found on several occasions wandering about the grounds with a lighted lantern and is said to have refused to heed any orders given by the authorities and it was impossible to care for the man there. The matter was reported to the trustees of the county institution and to relatives and an examination into the mental condition of Notz was petitioned for and was held yesterday with the result that he was committed to the state hospital at Oshkosh. Notz presented a sad spectacle of any other provision for care of the man. Notz lost an arm in a feed shredder accident some years ago and is a cripple.

Reif met a tragic death at Coleman, this state, two days after having buried his wife and there was a contest in the courts for the custody of the orphan daughter of the couple, parents of both husband and wife claiming the infant. Reif was a hardware merchant at Coleman and owned considerable property and the contest for the possession of the child resolved itself into a bitter fight in the courts. Matthew Reif, father of the dead man and Ralph Peterson the parent of Mrs. Reif, brought every influence to bear and in this manner the name of Theresa Reif was introduced in the case. The woman, the daughter of Matt. Reif and aunt of the child for whose custody the fight was being waged, had at one time been committed to the asylum for the insane but had later been permitted to return home and this fact was brought out in evidence by the Peterson faction as a reason why Reif should not be given the child. The court decided in favor of Reif, stipulating however, that the daughter should again be committed to the asylum. In accordance with the decision of the Court, the commitment was authorized in County court today. Miss Reif is 39 years of age and was a patient at the hospital in 1895 and was then pronounced incurable. The family secured permission to remove her home and she had been there since.

Her 3 children will be either sent to the State School for needy children, or to the Lutheran orphanage. Der Nord Westen 24 March 1904 ***** In Probate Court an inquiry was made today in the case of Mrs. Rottger of Mishicott, who was adjudged incompetent. The woman is a widow with three children, the oldest 12 years of age and the family has been poorly provided for. The father who died two years ago, was weak-minded also.

ROSINSKY: Albert A young farmer from Newton, had to be taken to the state mental facility in Oshkosh Der Nord Westen 20 October 1904 ***** SAID HE WAS SANE DOCTORS SAY NO Albert Rozinsky, Newton, Now Says He Will Escape From Asylum HAS BEEN AT OSHKOSH Committed in 1904, He Was Paroled and Was Sent Back At His Own Request - "Sees and Hears Things" He Says Twice committed to the Northern asylum for Insane at Oshkosh, one time at his own request, and at present an inmate of the Manitowoc county asylum, Albert Rozinsky, a Newton man, demanded a re-examination in probate court Thursday, claiming to be sane and competent to care for his own affairs. Drs. Thurtell and Roberts, appointed by the court to conduct the examination, disagreed with the contention of Rozinsky and adjudged the man insane and advised against his release. The court issued an order for Rozinsky's retention at the county asylum and the man served notice that he would embrace the first opportunity to make his escape. Rozinsky was first taken into custody on October 19, 1904 and was committed to the Oshkosh asylum at that time as insane, his insanity taking the form of hallucinations. On April 28, 1905 Rozinsky was released by the hospital authorities on parole and he returned to this county and again took up his home at Newton. September 19, the same year, Rozinsky appeared in court, voluntarily and made request of Judge Chloupek that an order be issued permitting him to return to the Oshkosh institution and after an inquiry the court notified the asylum officials to come for the man and he was committed. After his return to Oshkosh, Rozinsky's condition did not improve and after a year and a half, on April 15, the present year, an order was issued transferring him to the Manitowoc county insane asylum, an action indicating that the state asylum authorities had little hope that Rozinsky would recover fully. The patient caused no trouble and appeared to improve rapidly here and was permitted the freedom of the grounds. Sunday last Rozinsky disappeared from the asylum and was absent for two days when Supt. Goedgen located him at Newton where he had applied for work as a laborer, and he was returned to the asylum. Upon his return to the asylum, Rozinsky made request to be taken before Judge Chloupek in probate court and when this was granted, he prepared an application and demanded a re-examination. Both judge Chloupek and Supt. Goedgen were led to believe the man sane but under examination of the physicians it was found that the patient suffered from hallucinations and he was adjudged insane again. Aside from the hallucinations Rozinsky appeared rational and conversed intelligently and gave a detailed story of his life. Told that he could not be released, Rozinsky exhibited disappointment and then declared that he would make his escape and would never consent to remain with "the crazy people." He told the court that he was as sane as the physicians who had examined him or the court itself and that it was an injustice to compel him to remain at the asylum. Rozinsky has no family, being single. He had resided at Newton for years before his commitment and has never exhibited a violent form of insanity. The case is peculiar and it is expected that some trouble may be experienced with Rozinsky. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Wis., Saturday, May 11, 1907 pg. 1 ***** DEMANDED A RE-EXAMINATION Albert Rosinsky, formerly of the town of newton, and now confined at the Manitowoc County insane asylum recently demanded a re-examination as to his sanity. The request was granted and the examination held before Judge Chloupek last Saturday. Drs. Thurtell and Roberts were appointed by the court to conduct the examination and reported that in their opinion Rosinsky was still insane, and advised against his release. The court thereupon ordered him re-committed to the asylum. Before going Rosinsky served notice that he would take advantage of the first opportunity to affect his escape. Rosinsky was first committed to the Northern Hospital at Oshkosh in October 1904, and was released from there on parole in April 1905. In the fall of the same year, he appeared voluntarily before the county court here and requested that he be recommitted to the Oshkosh Hospital. After an examination his commitment was ordered, and he remained there until April 15 of this year. As his condition had not improved, he was at that time transferred to the local asylum where he has since been confined. The Manitowoc Pilot, Wis., Thursday, May 16, 1907 pg. 1

RUBY: Joseph RUBY ADJUDGED INSANE Joseph Ruby, the Town of Two Creeks farmer who left his dead mother alone in her home with the doors barred and windows open, when he went to seek the services of a cheap undertaker and grave digger, has been adjudged insane. Ruby's mother died on Sunday and when Sheriff Cary of Manitowoc visited the premises on Tuesday, the body was found lying partly on the bed and partly on the floor, the windows open and the place in general disorder. No attempt had been made by ruby to care for the body and he is said to have warned neighbors that they were not wanted when his mother was ill, and no one attempted to interfere with him. Ruby is said to have armed himself on occasions when persons visited the house and no one in the vicinity wanted anything to do with the man. His disappearance and the fact that the doors were barred led neighbors who knew of Mrs. Ruby's illness, to investigate; with the result that the complaint was made to probate court and the sheriff was dispatched to the scene. Ruby said that he had left home to secure an undertaker and grave digger but that he wanted to enquire so that he could get the cheapest services. He was at Kewaunee and was at Maribel Monday night, and was on his way to Two Rivers when taken into custody by the sheriff. The Chronicle, Two Rivers, Wis., Tuesday, November 1, 1910 pg. 1 ***** RUBY IS SENT TO THE ASYLUM Two Creeks Man Adjudged Insane by Two Physicians Joseph Ruby, the Two Creeks youth who has been held in custody of probate court since the death of his mother a week ago when he left the body alone and unguarded at the mercy of animals, was committed to the Northern Hospital for insane at Oshkosh by the court Tuesday upon recommendation of physicians who conducted an examination into the man's mental condition and adjudged him insane. Examination was made by Drs. Currens and Farrel of this city and Ruby was taken to Oshkosh by the sheriff. Following the commitment of ruby application was made in court for appointment of trustee for his estate which includes an 80 acre farm in Two Creeks, four head of valuable horses, farm machinery etc. A brother of Ruby who came here from Iowa at the time of his mother's death summoned by probate court officials after the inquiry at the Ruby home declared that his brother had never been entirely "right" in mind and was satisfied that he should be committed to the asylum. Ruby is 24 years of age and has been considered a little queer by neighbors. It is said the man shun his fellows and never sought companionship of others, rather sought to avoid friendships and it is said that he even refused to admit neighbors to his home when they would have visited there. Physicians believe that the Ruby case may respond to treatment and efforts will be made to restore him.

RUMPF: Anna and son William MOTHER AND SON SEEK FREEDOM FROM ASYLUM Mrs. Anna Rumpf and Son William, Committed to Asylum Year ago, ask Jury to Say they are Sane Mother and son inmates of the Northern hospital at Oshkosh for more than a year during which time the son has been crippled by loss of a leg through an accident are today asking a jury in probate court to free them of restraint by declaring them sane and the hearing which is being held before Judge Chloupek in the circuit court room is attracting much interest, a large crowd of spectators being present. It is not probably that the hearing will be completed today. The petitioners are Mrs. Anna Rumpf and William Rumpf, wife and son of Fred Rumpf who was recently released from the Northern hospital after a jury trial in which he was held to be sane. Rumpf immediately set about to secure the release of his wife and son and filed a petition for a jury hearing in their cases. Rumpf, his wife and son were committed at the same time about a year ago when they were adjudged insane by physicians after examination in probate court. The family formerly resided in the country and later moved to the city. The three claimed that life had been made unbearable in their farm home by neighbors and among the stories told by the Rumpf's was that neighbors danced in their barn at night, using flashlights, that members of the family had been shot at and that water in their well had been poisoned. Rumpf wrote to Gov. Phillip and later visited Madison, carrying with him a bottle containing samples of the alleged poisoned water. Investigation by the authorities led to the belief that the Rumpf's were insane and an examination was rendered and the three were committed to the Oshkosh asylum. While at the hospital at Oshkosh, William Rumpf, the son while accompanying a wagon from Oshkosh with supplies for the hospital, was severely injured when the wagon was struck by a Soo line train. Young Rumpf, aged 30, had both legs broken and crushed that amputation was necessary. He appeared in court today crippled. At the hearing today District Attorney Brady is representing the state and Atty. J.J. Healy appears for the petitioners. Dr. Gilles, assistant for Dr. Sherman at the Northern hospital under whose care Mrs. Rumpf and her son have been, was a witness at the hearing and gave as his opinion that both Mrs. Rumpf and the son were mentally unbalanced and should not be at large. In the hearing in the case of the father Dr. Sherman was a witness. Young Rumpf who was called as a witness at the opening of hearing today adhered to the stories the family told before commitment to Oshkosh and said that he believed in the truth. The incidents of which Rumpf complained happened two or three years ago before their removal to the city but they claimed that the same events followed them into the city as it was after coming here that Rumpf Sr. visited Madison. Since his release from the Oshkosh hospital Rumpf (remainder of paragraph over inked).

RUMPF: Fred THE WHOLE FAMILY FOUND TO BE INSANE Obsessed With the Thought That They Were Being Persecuted Insanity is not considered contagious but it seems as if it might be so from the report of a case by the Manitowoc Herald showing that an entire family was adjudged insane in one day following a hearing held in probate court at Manitowoc. Father, mother and son, the only members of the family of Fred Rumph 1225 So. Twenty-first street, were Thursday ordered committed to the Northern hospital at Oshkosh. It is believed that the three have been insane for more than two years. Commitment of the three followed investigation made by health Officer J.E. Meany on orders of the state board of health, to whom the case was referred by Gov. Phillipp. Rumph, Sr., had appealed to him on two occasions for protection against alleged persecution. Rumph visited Madison last week for a second time. Rumph was formerly a blacksmith at School Hill, then located on a farm at Schleswig and later came to this city. Rumph labored under hallucination that he was being persecuted and that an effort was being made to sell his property at a loss. He told the authorities that at Schleswig neighbors had poisoned his cattle, fed ground glass to his chickens, locked his barn doors on himself, held dances in the barns. He said he left Schleswig to escape, but that his tormentors followed him to the city. When Rumph visited the governor last week, he carried with him three bottles of water which he said had been poisoned. The governor notified the state health board to investigate and Health Officer Meany was advised. When Rumph and his wife and son appeared in probate court, they still had the three bottles of water which were found to be alright. Inquiry made convinced the physicians and court that the three were insane and they were ordered committed to Oshkosh Asylum Two Rivers Reporter, Wis., Friday, July 5, 1918 pg. 1 ***** REPORT OF COUNTY JUDGE ON INSANE HEARINGS TO THE HONORABLE CHAIRMAN AND BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF MANITOWOC COUNTY, WISCONSIN: Gentlemen: -In accordance with the duties which are provided for in the statutes, I beg leave to submit my report of all the proceedings and hearings in relating to insane and feeble-minded had and determined since the filing of my last report, May 13, 1919, up to and including this 11th day of November, 1919.

WALTERBACK: Anton MAN WHO FAILED TO END LIFE IN SUICIDE ATTEMPT IS NOW INMATE OF ASYLUM Whether from the self-inflicted injury to his head or due to excessive drink, Anton Walterback, the man who attempted to take his own life last week, was yesterday adjudged insane and committed to the Northern hospital at Oshkosh. Walterbach was at the hospital receiving treatment for his wound when he evidenced insanity and it was necessary to remove him to the jail and an examination was ordered. Physicians yesterday adjudged Walterbach insane. Walterbach made a poor job of his attempt at suicide, the bullet grazing his head and inflicting only a slight injury but it is possible the shot may have been responsible for his later condition. The man appeared in court yesterday with his head in bandages and showing effects of suffering and his debauch, it being said that Walterbach had been drinking heavily for some time.
