Jim Kimbrell, about 2f> years of
age, alleged to be of uiihouihI mind,
has been locked in a cell at the
guard house since Friday. Asth<?
nccommodntions at the hendquarters
are very poor for the are and
treatmenl of the i tisane and as then
are no lunacy experts here the authorities
were anxious to be ivli ved
of their charge. In the meantime,
while his mind was wandering, he
seemed to realize his whereabouts
| and wau keenly alive to t in fart that
he was occupying very uneomfortaj
hie quarters. When taken from
his cell to eat his meals il none
times required the strength >r f-.u;
men to put hint bark again.
Kimbrell has a wife and two
children and has bt en living with,
j them on Mr. Lee Nivciia' plantation
and was working on 'lie dam
i when it was noticed that his mind
wh- unbnlatieed. It is said that
he had not slept any in about ten
days before he wan confined to a
cell, lie acknowledges that he is
crazy but when questioned as to
the cause he will give no answer.
It is thought by the doctors who
liaye bepn attending him that religion
has been one of the causes
as hp frequently prnys and talks
about it nearly all the time.
Mr. Kimbrell was taken to York..:

who will raro for him until!
