Fairchild, Henry N.	Rocky Mountain News, 1/7/1895 FAIRCHILD'S DEATH Bright and Genial Nature Destroyed by Despondency. Harry N. Fairchild died at the insane asylum at Pueblo last evening. The end has been expected by his friends in this city since he was committed to the asylum three weeks ago. His condition at that time was precarious and the physicians did not think that he would long survive. The trial in the county court attracted great attention and the audience was composed of some of the best known politicians in the state. Harry Fairchild was formerly deputy secretary of state under Melvin Edwards. For some time he has been despondent at the failure to pass the bill to pension the prisoners at Andersonville. He endured the horrors of that dungeon for many a wary month and was deeply interested in the act pending before congress for the relief of the veterans who were detained until their exchange could be effected. The first thing that attracted the attention of his friends to the fact that his mind was unbalanced was his appearance at the court house and his inability to find his way about, although he was perfectly familiar with every room and corridor. When the trial was in progress he spent the time in informing the court that "I Harry Nelson Fairchild am the first god of the earth." The scene beggars him to the days when his wit was quick and his perception the brightest, wept at the sad sight. He was know as a generous man and his death will be universally regretted by a wide circle of friends.

Fata, Donado	May 6 1905 New Castle Nonpareil (New Castle, Garfield County COLORADO NEWS ITEMS For the third time since the first of the year Donado Fata, a prominent Italian storekeeper at Trinidad, has been taken to the State Insane Asylum. He became violent and attempted to hurt his family. Sweeping dust off the huge Midland bridge at Manitou was one of the pastimes of Michael Ryan, “the Hermit of Manitou,” according to his own testimony in the County Court at Colorado Springs, where he was adjudged insane. Afterward he was taken to the State Asylum at Pueblo. Ryan is said to have escaped several years ago from the State Asylum of Minnesota. He became possessed of the hallucination that he held in a state license to reside in his cabin in Manitou, and that he must keep busy in order to retain his residence. Of late he had assaulted several persons.

Ferren, John	Telluride Daily Journal 9-8-1897 – John Ferren was taken into custody last evening by Sheriff Downtain on complaint of several citizens of San Miguel who claimed that Ferren was insane and an unsafe man to be allowed his freedom.  He was placed on trial in the county court this afternoon before Judge McGarvey and a jury, and after hearing the evidence the jury adjudged him insane and the judge ordered that he be taken to the state asylum at Pueblo.  Ferren is a stranger in Telluride and has no relatives or friends in this section.  He is not in a dangerous condition and with proper treatment will no doubt soon recover completely.
Ferren, John	Telluride Daily Journal 10-8-1897 – Sheriff Downtain left this morning for Pueblo, having in charge John Ferren, who was adjudged insane some time ago.  Ferren has been held since then in confinement waiting until room could be found for him in the state insane asylum.

Fitzgerald, Charles	Aspen Weekly Times (Aspen, Pitkin County) June 8 1895 The County's Insane - One Patient Recommitted, Another to be Returned From Illinois - In the county court yesterday an order was issued by Judge Johnson recommitting May Schwendinger to the Pueblo asylum. The unfortunate woman was sent to that institution about a year ago and returned to her friends recently in a more normal mental condition. Her mania again manifested itself and grew worse until the legal action of today was deemed advisable. Sheriff Hayes started this morning with Mrs. Schwendinger for Pueblo. When he has delivered her over to the asylum authorities, he may proceed to Jacksonville, Ill asylum and bring from that institution Charles Fitzgerald of this county and place him in the Pueblo Asylum. Fitzgerald has been kept at Jacksonville, at Pitken's county expense, for nearly three years because there was no room for him in the Colorado asylum. Word has been received by county commissioners from Pueblo, that there is room there for more insane patients since the new asylum wing has been completed. The commissioners therefore ordered that Fitzgerald be changed and instructed the sheriff to make the transfer as soon as possible.
Fitzgerald, Charles	Aspen Weekly Times 10-1-1892 – An Insane Man's Act – Charles Fitzgerald, a lunatic confined in the city jail pending his recovery or ultimate commitment to a madhouse, at an early hour Saturday smuggled a blade of glass into his cell and deliberately undertook to unsex himself.  The spectacle was a revolting one.  Friday morning last he was found wandering aimlessly up and down the streets.  The sleuths were on the alert.  A few hours before the assassin had applied the instrument of death to John Powell's modest dwelling and every face upon the streets and in the resorts was rigidly scrutinized.  An officer overtaking Fitzgerald began to catechise him.  He could only give in incoherent account of himself and stated that the sheriff and posse were running him down.  “Gone daft,” soliloquised the officer, and seizing Fitzgerald, who is a powerful fellow, led him to jail.  Jailer Rowe has made several ineffectual attempts to get from him the story of his life, but his faculties were too unsteady to be kept in the middle of the road.  He has eaten rapaciously, slept but little and chatted almost incessantly hopping from one subject to another until he almost drove the neighbors wild.  Saturday morning he was making a break for liberty when a turnkey ordered him back.  He scowled, showed his teeth and slunk back in his cell with a muffled curse.  He partook of his food at the regular hours and shortly after dark sought his bunk on the upper tier.  His cell mate followed soon after, and was just sinking into a doze when he heard the patter of dripping fluid from the roof, and seizing a light, found a veritable Niagara of blood flowing from Fitzgerald's limbs.  The news was heralded through the massive door to the jailer and the madman was dragged from his perch that was now saturated, and upon which he was reclining with a pipe in his mouth.  The jailer was horrified.  Stripping the clothes from his bleeding ward, he found a torrent flowing from an ugly orifice in the scrotum.  “Why did you do it?” demanded the reporter, who had reached the scene.  “The doctor told me to,” replied the prisoner, pressing a cloth to the emasculated parts.  “What doctor?” interposed a prisoner.  “Dr. Rose.”  Meanwhile Dr. Downs had been summoned and arriving took several stitches in the ghastly wound.  The poor fellow was very weak from the loss of blood, and while not in any immediate danger of death, is in a very critical condition.  “I am not superstitious,” said Jailer Rowe to a reporter as they stood in the glare of an electric bulb, “but it has flashed across my mind two or three times that this poor wretch in his delirium might have been the man who blew up Powell.”  “Impossible!” gasped the reporter.  “No, the lunatic has been guilty of stranger things in his cunning and irresponsibility.  “Have you examined him?”  “Yes; he claims to have been acquainted with Powell.”  “Worked with him?” “No; well you can't confine him to any given subject long enough to confirm anything.  He seems to be constantly haunted with an insane fancy that the sheriff is after him.  It's a strange case.”  When questioned by a Times reporter Fitzgerald stated that he had been employed as a miner at Leadville and came to this city three years ago, since which time he had worked as a day laborer.
Fitzgerald, Charles	Aspen Weekly Times 10-1-1892 – The Lunatic's Fate – Charles Fitzgerald, the unfortunate laborer who was found meandering aimlessly up and down the streets on the morning of the Powell assassination, was Tuesday afternoon taken before Judge England upon a warrant charging him with lunacy, and arraigned for examination before a jury and judge.  The story of his apprehension, his strange conduct, his attempt to unsex himself while in jail and the hallucinations from which he was shrinking was recited, after which the respondent himself was placed in the witness chair.  Fitzgerald told incoherently how he had been haunted by men of every description, who were thirsting for his life.  Submitted the jury experienced no difficulty in arriving at a verdict, and Fitzgerald was adjudged insane and ordered committed to the asylum for the insane.  Turned over to Deputy Sheriff Crowder, the lunatic was removed to the jail below and started for Pueblo last night, under the impression that he had been sentenced to two years in the penitentiary.  Nothing whatever could be learned of the victim's past life, although he claims to have been employed in Leadville for three years prior to coming to Aspen.
Fitzgerald, Charles	Aspen Weekly Times 10-1-1892 – A Mystery Cleared – Michael Groff, the Austrian who was arrested upon a suspicion that he had some knowledge of foul play in that his brother Matt had threated the deceased, strengthened the suspicions yesterday morning when he made another attempt at suicide in the county jail. Sharing the cage with him were Powell, who is serving a term for the slaying of Davis, and Charles Fitzgerald, who is now awaiting removal to the asylum for the insane at Pueblo. Fitzgerald had been an inmate of the city jail with Groff, and it was the lunatic who heralded the news in time to prevent Groff's hanging himself on Sunday last. Meeting again in the county jail, the lunatic eyed the Austrian very closely, expecting him to repeat the effort at strangulation. Meanwhile the Austrian was laying plans to execute himself, and improvising a noose by means of a piece of wire, was adjusting it about his neck when the wary eye of the lunatic detected him. Giving the alarm, Sheriff Stewart hastened to the cage and relieving the suicidal prisoner of his wire, locked him in a cell
Fitzgerald, Charles	Aspen Weekly Times 1-7-1893 – Green Is The Man – Named As County Physician by the Commissioners – Robert Jones Named as Janitor of the Court House – Several Small Matters Disposed of By the Board – The Matter of a Road Overseer Taken Up and Action Postponed – The board of county commissioners met in their chambers at the court house Tuesday morning pursuant to adjournment with a full board present and prepared to tackle the mountain of business that has been accumulating for some time awaiting their consideration The bill of $13.85 of C. M. McFarland, of Jacksonville, Ill., for taking care of the two insane patients, Fitzgerald and Lee, was allowed and a warrant ordered drawn on the general fund
Fitzgerald, Charles	Aspen Weekly Times 2-10-1894 – M'Nichols' Bond – It Is Considered Good and Sufficient By the Commissioners – Pursuant to adjournment the county commissioners met Wednesday at 10 o'clock with all members present The claim of George McFarland, Jacksonville, Ills., of $150 for the care of Charles Fitzgerald, an insane patient, was allowed and a warrant for same ordered drawn on the ordinary county revenue fund
Fitzgerald, Charles	Aspen Daily Leader 9-27-1892 – Will Go To The Asylum – Charles Fitzgerald to Be Examined as to His Sanity – Charles Fitzgerald, the lunatic who has been making so much trouble for the police authorities for the past few days, will to-day be arraigned before Judge England and a competent jury to be examined as to his sanity. Charles will, without doubt, be sent to the asylum for the insane at Pueblo. Fitzgerald's latest fancy is that he is to be hanged, and he construes the least sound he hears as being made by men on work for the gallows from which he is to be swung into eternity. Sunday night religious services were held in the police court room, and Fitzgerald told his fellow prisoners in all apparent sincerity that the exercises were being held for his benefit prior to his departure from this sphere.
Fitzgerald, Charles	Aspen Daily Leader 9-28-1892 – Sent to the Asylum – Charles Fitzgerald Is Adjudged Insane by a Jury – Charles Fitzgerald was yesterday adjudged insane by a jury in the county court, and Judge England sent the poor deranged individual to the asylum for the insane at Pueblo. The patient was brought into court at 3 o'clock, and from his restless eyes and nervous twitching it was apparent to all that he was mentally unbalanced. He took more than a passing interest in all that transpired, and seemed eager to catch every sentence uttered by the witnesses. The drift of the testimony was a review of Fitzgerald's actions since his arrest on Friday last, and as an expert Dr. Ramsey testified that the man was without doubt insane and that the asylum was the place for him. Fitzgerald, upon being sworn on his own behalf, reeled off a weird, disconnected story, at the conclusion of which the jury, who were J. P. McDonald, C. H. Geldham, Andrew Malqueen, T. J. Collins, Charles Dustin and L. A. W. Brown, pronounced him insane. When the verdict was made known to Fitzgerald he shrugged his shoulders, and with a display of irony, remarked: “That doctor's evidence was the cause of me getting two years.”
Fitzgerald, Charles	Aspen Daily Leader 11-27-1892 – Local Mention – The new board of county commissioners will convene to-morrow, and will proceed to look over the ground to find out “whereabouts they are at.” It is said that one of the first things which will be done at the session will be to take steps for the immediate removal of the insane now confined in the county jail to an asylum where they can receive proper treatment. It is earnestly to be hoped that this report is well founded and that these unfortunates may soon be taken from their present quarters.
Fitzgerald, Charles	Aspen Daily Leader 12-1-1892 – Laconic Locals – Reporter's Round Up of the Day's News – The insane men, Fitzgerald and Lee, when taken out of the cage at the county jail, preparatory to their removal to the asylum at Jacksonville, Ills., were almost frantic in their expressions of delight at once more seeing the sunlight. Poor Lee had become so weakened by confinement that he could scarcely stand. Fitzgerald seems to have grown somewhat better and his total recovery to reason is confidently looked for within the next two months. Sheriff Stewart apprehended no trouble in making the removal.
Fitzgerald, Charles	Aspen Daily Leader 12-6-1892 – Laconic Locals – Reporter's Round Up of the Day's News – A telegram was received in this city yesterday, announcing that the Jacksonville insane asylum was filled to its utmost capacity and that Sheriff Jim Stewart, with his two charges, was wandering about the country seeking a haven of rest. It is reported that an expedition made up of office seekers, who were defeated at the late election, will at once start for our big sheriff's relief.
Fitzgerald, Charles	Rocky Mountain Sun 10-1-1892 – City News Condensed – An unfortunate man who gives his name as Charles Fitzgerald was adjudged insane before Judge England last Tuesday and taken to the state insane asylum at Pueblo. Nothing definite could be learned about his family connections or friends.
Fitzgerald, Charles	Rocky Mountain Sun 12-3-1892 – City News Condensed – The two crazy inmates of the county jail, Edwin Lee and Charles Fitzgerald, were taken to the insane asylum at Jacksonville last Tuesday by Sheriff Stewart. Lee seems to be a hopeless case, but Fitzgerald is at times quite rational and may recover by proper treatment. [Other articles give his name as Edmund Lee, not Edwin Lee.]

Flowers, Charles	Cripple Creek Morning Times 2-27-1900 – Jumped From the Train – Insane Man Makes a Terrible Leap – Injuries Are Not Serious – Dived Out of a Window of Rio Grande Train Onto the Rocks of Royal Gorge and Received Only Minor Bruises – Denver, Feb. 26. – Driven insane by brooding over his misfortunes, Charles Flowers dived headlong through the window of a car on a Rio Grande train in the Royal gorge yesterday morning.  He was brought to Denver and will recover.  The train was running at the rate of forty miles an hour, through the rock-ribbed canon of the Arkansas, about twelve miles above the hanging bridge.  Flower plunged head first through both the heavy panes of glass in the broad double window of the chair car.  He landed on the rocks on the river side of the track.  When the train was stopped and was backed up to the spot at which he had leaped the trainmen looked for his mangled body on the rocks but it was not there.  Across the track the blood-splashed lunatic was concealed behind the projecting buttress of granite, essaying to climb the precipitous walls.  He resisted when brought back to the train.  His head was badly cut and he complained of pains that indicated internal injuries.  Flower jumped from No. 7 (?) the fast transcontinental train.  C. L. Rogers, one of the oldest and most reliable conductors on the road was in charge.  It was a matter of importance that the train be brought into Denver on time yesterday, of all days, as on that day the new time card went into effect.  The train lost thirty minutes stopping and picking the man up.  Conductor Rogers telegraphed to Canon City for a physician, who rode to Florence, dressed the man's wounds and administered an opiate to keep him still.  At Pueblo another physician was in waiting to see that all was well.  At Colorado Springs another examination was made in the five minutes' stop.  At Castle Rock the local physician of the Rio Grande was on hand to see to the patient, and when the train pulled into the Union depot it was exactly on the minute and the injured man in good condition.  Flowers was taken to the county hospital, where his injuries were pronounced trifling.  He has a cut in his temple, a gash in his right wrist, the little finger of his left hand is cut and he complains of a sprained back.  All the cuts, it is thought, were made from the dive through the glass, and there is hardly a mark from his fall on jagged rocks from a train going at a high rate of speed.  He was still apparently demented, but was quiet.

Forde, David	Routt County Sentinel 8-12-1921 – Had It In For Neighbors and Lands In The Asylum – David Forde, who has for a number of years had a homestead in the Deep creek basin not far from the Mystic settlement, was yesterday taken to the State Hospital for the Insane, Sheriff C. W. Neiman escorting him to Pueblo. His departure was hastened by an exciting incident which occurred Monday, when Forde attempted to shoot some of his neighbors. Forde had declared his intentions to become a citizen, before he filed on his homestead, but as time went on he became decidedly “queer,” and he refused to take the steps to secure his final papers, which would allow him to prove up on his claim. Instead, he spent much of his time denouncing the American government. The time when he must make proof on the claim expired and the land office sent him notice to appear and show cause why his entry should not be cancelled. He refused to accept the registered letters, and he seldom left his place, fearing that it would be “jumped.” He lived a hermit life. Forde had often threatened his neighbors and said he would shoot anyone who came on his place. Hence he was left severely alone. But Monday he went to the F. N. May ranch, where Mr. May and Charles E. Gibbs were stacking hay. As he approached he fired on the two men with a shotgun, Mr. May being struck in the knee and slightly injured by one stray shot. Forde was overpowered and disarmed by Mr. Gibbs and Omer Songer, who was near, and Sheriff Neiman was sent for.
Forde, David	Steamboat Pilot 8-10-1921 – Sent to the Asylum – David Forde, long a resident of the Elk mountain section, was Tuesday adjudged insane by a commission in the county court and will be taken to the state hospital at Pueblo. Forde is a homesteader and has been “off” for years. He is a native of England. He made final proof on his homestead and at the same time applied for naturalization papers. He refused to appear for naturalization, his malady at that time taking the form of general op to the government. He has continued to occupy the land until neighbors became alarmed at his condition and he was brought before the county court on an insanity charge.
Forde, David	Steamboat Pilot 8-17-1921 – Elk Mountain Section – The May ranch was a scene of some excitement a week ago Monday when David Forde attacked Mr. Gibbs and Mr. May with a shot gun. They took Mr. Forde to the hospital for the insane after the necessary preliminary arrangements were gone thru.

Fornier, Frank	Carbonate Chronicle 6-17-1912 – Insane Man Caught – Undersheriffs Angus and Harlan yesterday confined in jail Frank Fornier, and placed the charge of insanity against him. The officers had been notified that the man was wandering about the country in the neighborhood of Tennessee pass and Sheriff Schraeder and his deputies spent a good share of Sunday night locating the insane man. When he was found by Mr. Angus and Mr. Harlan, he was roaming at random through the woods on the hills northwest of town. The officers brought him to town yesterday at noon. Fornier is not violent, but it is evident that his mind is unbalanced. He may be tried for insanity in the county court, in case his condition does not show any improvement.
Fornier, Frank	Carbonate Chronicle 7-1-1912 – From Sunday's Daily – Demented Man Released – After a period of several weeks in the county jail, Frank Fornier, who was confined until his unbalanced mental condition had improved, was released yesterday and taken to a ranch, where it is hoped that he will become better. F. Borhatey, proprietor of the London dairy and a relative of the unfortunate man, took him to his ranch yesterday and will care for him until he has improved. Fornier is not violent and is totally harmless. But he could not understand why he was confined in jail. Every time that the jail door was opened he sprang forward and tried to get out. When the door was shut in his face and locked he would turn away without a word and seem to forget his failure to escape. When the man was captured by Undersheriffs Angus and Harlan he was wandering aimlessly about in the woods of Tennessee park.
Fornier, Frank	Carbonate Chronicle 7-22-1912 – Fornier In Jail – For the second (?) time within a month Frank Fornier is a prisoner in the county jail, because of insanity. He was arrested at the Coquoz ranch in Tennessee park Thursday night by Sheriff Schraeder and a deputy and brought to this city early yesterday morning. Fornier is the victim of sudden fits of insanity and became so violent Thursday that the people at the ranch sent word to the officials to take him into custody. The insane man was not captured without a struggle and the officers were forced to exert themselves to get him into the express wagon and bring him to this city.
Fornier, Frank	Carbonate Chronicle 7-22-1912 – Dived Headlong From Window – Frank Fornier, Insane Prisoner Makes Sensational Escape After Fight With Jailer Philbrick – Frank Fornier, who was being held in the county jail on a charge of insanity, made a sensational jail break at 11 o'clock last night and is again at large. The successful dash for liberty was the result of a very cunningly and carefully planned course of action by Fornier and could not have been better carried out by a perfectly sane person. When Jailer Stephen Philbrick entered the jail corridor at 11 o'clock last night to pull the lever to lock the prisoners in their cells, Fornier, who had been crouching just inside the outer door, sprang upon him and seized him by the throat. The insane man pushed the surprised jailer aside and dashed through the door into the kitchen. In a moment Philbrick had recovered himself and was after the prisoner. Fornier went straight for one of the windows opening out of the kitchen into the jail yard and dived head foremost through it. The jailer made a grab for him and succeeded in catching hold of his legs. He pulled the prisoner back into the room where the two men had a fierce tussle. Fornier succeeded in breaking away from Philbrick and dived again through the window. Running swiftly across the yard he climbed over the fence and disappeared into the darkness. In making his desperate dive through the window Fornier was severely cut about the head and during the struggle between him and Jailer Philbrick the blood was spattered all over the kitchen. Philbrick's face and clothes were also smeared with Fornier's blood, while the inside of the prisoner's hat, which was found in the room was dyed a deep red. The sheriff's office and the police force were immediately notified of the jail break and men were put out on the trail of the escaped prisoner. Fornier was arrested by Sheriff Schraeder and a deputy at the Coquoz ranch in Tennessee park last Thursday night. He is subject to violent fits of insanity and was held in the county jail for two weeks during the middle of June. When he recovered from this spell, he was released and went to work at the Coquoz ranch. Last Thursday the sheriff was notified that Fornier was suffering from another attack and the people at the ranch asked that he be taken into custody. The officers did not succeed in capturing him without a struggle.
Fornier, Frank	Carbonate Chronicle 7-29-1912 – Fornier Recaptured – Frank Fornier, the insane man who made a sensational escape from the county jail Saturday night by jumping head foremost through one of the kitchen windows, was recaptured by Sheriff Harry Schraeder yesterday morning at the Coquoz ranch in Tennessee park. When the officers arrived at the ranch, where Fornier had formerly been employed, they found the fugitive asleep in his bed. He was brought back to the city and placed in jail. When Fornier jumped through the window, the glass cut his head and one of his hands. His injuries were examined yesterday, but did not prove to be serious. In spite of the fact that several reports were received by the officers Saturday night and early yesterday morning, stating that the insane man had been seen in different parts of the city, it is thought that immediately after scaling the jail fence Fornier made his way directly to Tennessee park.
Fornier, Frank	Carbonate Chronicle 7-29-1912 – Fornier Found Insane – A jury of six yesterday morning rendered a verdict finding Frank Fornier, who for some time has been confined in the county jail owing to his deranged mental condition, “so insane or distracted in his mind as to endanger his own person and property or the person and property of others.” He was sentenced by County Judge Harrison to a period of indefinite confinement in the asylum for the insane at Pueblo and will remain there until he is, in the discretion of the superintendent of the institution, a safe man to be at large again. Jailer Steve Philbrick was the principal witness at Fornier's trial. He reviewed the circumstances of his struggle with the demented man last Saturday night, when Fornier rushed at him and jumped headlong through a window in the jail kitchen after a desperate fight for escape. County Clerk John W. McMahon, who ran into the jail on hearing the noise of the struggle, testified that when he arrived he found Mr. Philbrick covered with blood from wounds which Fornier had received in the battle with the jailer. The testimony of Jailer Philbrick was corroborated by Sheriff Harry Schraeder, who stated that at all times the man has shown that he is incapable of rational conduct. Joe Coquoz, a relative of Fornier, who took the man to his ranch for a few days in hopes that he would improve with the change from jail life to the life of a quiet country home, upheld the testimony of the other witnesses that Fornier was as irrational in his actions on the ranch as he was when confined in the jail. County Attorney Bouck examined the witnesses. All the evidence tended to show that Fornier needs the care of experts in an institution. The jury in the Fornier case was composed as follows: W. H. Cole (foreman), John C. Burkhardt, Frank Feehan, Ben Gray, George H. McDonald and Andrew Clooney.

Foy, Eddie	Greeley Tribune 5-19-1898 - Foy and the Lunatic - Eddie Foy, the comedian, spent a summer vacation at his old home in central New York.  One day as he was strolling past the large insane asylum that stands on the outskirts of the town he was startled by a low "Hist!" and on looking up saw one of the worst heads that ever came under his gaze peering over the wall.  Eddie was not frightened, for he did not think the maniac could scale the wall, but he quickened his pace.  He had proceeded but a short distance when he heard a scrambling, and on looking saw that the madman had climbed over the wall and was following him.  Eddie walked fast, but the maniac, who was an immense fellow, with a face that wore a demonic look, walked faster.  Foy trotted a little, and the madman trotted after him.  Eddie finally broke into a run and was horrified to see that his pursuer was not only running also, but was gaining steadily.  Eddie is not much of a sprinter, but on this occasion he made remarkable time, but soon Foy could hear the labored breathing of his pursuer and felt that he could make no further effort.  Just as he was about to faint from exhaustion the maniac reached forward, touched him gently on the shoulder and said: "Tag! You're it." - San Francisco Argonaut.

Franco, Joseph	Castle Rock Journal 1-8-1904 - Camped Upon a Mountain - Insane Man Without Shelter or Bedding Would have Perished from Exposure, Taken to the Asylum - Joseph Franco, a stranger in the county was tried in the County court for lunacy, Monday and was sent to the asylum, being taken to Pueblo that night by Sheriff Alford.  Franco was arrested Sunday night on Dawson mountain, near Perry Park, by Under Sheriff Scott, Deputy Sheriff Phillips, Bert Compton and L.T. Bardell.  He had been camped for a week on the south side of the mountain, under a ledge of lava rock and the ranchmen in the neighborhood had seen his camp fire at night.  He had no bedding of any kind, sleeping upon the bare ground and his only provisions consisted of a small amount of flour and coffee.  Water he obtained by melting snow from a snow bank near the summit of the mountain having to carry it a considerable distance to his camp ___ (illegible). As near as could be learned Franco is a Slav having been born in Austria.  He spoke English so brokenly that it was almost impossible to make out much of his history.  He claimed to have spent much time in Mexico and to speak that language well, but when William Adams was called to act as an interpreter, he met with no better success than did those who questioned him in English.  He also claimed to talk German, but Messrs. Hilburger, Schneider and Kaempfer had only the same success.  He told Dr. Alexander that he had been once in an asylum in Mexico.  Recently he had been working, it was gathered from his description of the place for Frank Van Wormer, near Acequia (sp?).

Franklin, Benjamin	Littleton Independent 7-3-1914 – A Four Mile Chase For Insane Man – Last Monday morning Sheriff McBroom was called upon to capture a man who had been spending the night in the weeds near the home of Mr. Lugo.  Mr. Steven and Dick White had been trying for some time to capture the man but were unable and called upon the sheriff to help them, and after a four-mile chase succeeded in getting him cornered.  The man gave his name as Benjamin Franklin and stated that he was a member of Company Troupe O, 11th Cavalry, now in the strike district near Trinidad.  The man was first seen coming toward Littleton from the vicinity of Overland park on Sunday afternoon, and from reports of those who saw him stated that his actions were very queer.

Frey, Chris	San Juan Prospector 10-6-1900 – Neighborhood Notes – Chris Frey, of Crestone, was declared insane last week and sent to the asylum at Pueblo.
Frey, Fred	Leadville Evening Chronicle 2-2-1891 – Found Insane – Fred Frey was yesterday afternoon tried in the county court for being insane. The following jury was empanelled: John Connelly, John Alfred, J. P. Turner, S. S. Chapin, J. G. Clemer and J. B. Mitchell. Several witnesses testified, and the jury returned a verdict of insanity. Mr. Frey came to Leadville in 1878, during the excitement of the first carbonate discoveries. He opened the Tontine restaurant, on Chestnut street, which he continued until 1882, when he failed. Soon after he was appointed manager of the Saddle Rock restaurant, owned by Smith & Elliott, in which capacity he acted for a number of years. About five years ago he opened a saloon, known as the Tontine, but it proved an unsuccessful venture, and since that time he has not been in any business. Mr. Frey is a prominent Mason, and was well versed in the workings of that order. It is believed, by his friends, that the cause of his insanity was brought about through worrying over business troubles, and the severe illness of one of his children. He has spent almost day and night by the bedside of his child, and it is thought that the strain was too much for his brain, and it gave way. He was taken to the state insane asylum at Pueblo, last evening, by Deputy Sheriff John Kurtin.

Fruhling, Albert	Hugo Range Ledger 3-18-1922 – Before Judge Hedlund and the lunacy commission in the county court last Friday night, Albert Fruhling, an old-time stockman farmer of northern Lincoln county in the Shaw neighborhood, was adjudged of unsound mind and taken to the state asylum at Pueblo last Saturday. It is to be hoped the care and treatment he will receive there, will restore him rapidly to his normal condition.
Fry, S.S.	Breckenridge Bulletin 8-31-1907 – Popular Man Losing Mind – “Poor Speed,” is the general comment now concerning S. S. Fry, who is giving his friends much uneasiness as to his mental condition.  It is scarcely to be doubted that this heretofore bright, witty young man is losing his mind.  It is said by those who know him that he makes awful noises in his sleep, trying to imitate the bray of zebras, the hiss of rattle snakes, the roar of lions, the growl of tigers, etc.  He ordered a whip from Denver with a ten-foot lash, and the other day tried to have W. P. Condon make him a sheet iron tank for a rhinoceros.  On the street he saunters about mumbling incoherent sentences, and in the last batch of electric light bills he sent out some of them read, “To one cage of monkeys,” so much, or, “to ten circus horses,” such and such a price.  Bob Gore says he spends much of the time up at the office trying to teach a certain jack to stand on its ears.  His whole mind seems to be on a circus and wild animals.  Many men have gone insane over less exciting subjects.  We sincerely hope Speed will recover before his case becomes hopeless.

Fusselman, Noah C.	Steamboat Pilot 2-11-1914 – Thinks Hayden Will Be Famous Mining Camp – Judge Morning last week conducted an inquisition into the sanity of Noah C. Fussman, a workingman who was employed for a time on the Hayden water works and later worked for the Sarvis Timber company. He has been known for some time to be insane but recently his affliction has taken a turn that led to the fear that he would do harm to himself or others. The least harmless part of his malady is his craze for prospecting. While working in the Hayden water works trenches he secured a great number of pebbles which to him are as precious as gold. He watched his “ore” with the greatest care and predicts that Hayden will make one of the greatest mining camps in the state, for to his mind it is built upon veritable sands of gold. Deputy District Attorney Ray Monson prosecuted the case, while D. P. Wilson appeared for the accused as guardian ad litem. The jury required only a few minutes to find Fussman insane and he will be taken to Pueblo by Sheriff Chivington.
Fusselman, Noah C.	Steamboat Pilot 2-11-1914 – Sheriff Chivington left on this morning's train with Noah Fusselman, bound for the insane asylum, and Mrs. Nellie Peltier, who will be held in the Denver jail until district court meets.

Fussman was sure in his own mind that Hayden would become a great mining camp and had a lot of pebbles to show whoever would look at them.
