The complaint in the case was made by his wife. His condition lately became of such a nature that it was feared he would do himself or others some harm.

| Garcia, Laura | Fort Collins Weekly Courier 3-11-1916 – Two Murder Cases are Set for Trial – Two Divisions of District Court To Be Held – Garcia's Attorney Wants Him in Asylum, Ryan Trial on March 20 and Tom Watton's Trial on March 15. Two of the three murder cases now on the district court docket will be tried early this month and the third may be tried if the court refuses a motion which has been filed. The trial of W.L. Ryan, which has attracted much attention on account of the supreme court ordering a retrial of the issues, will come up on March 20. There had been talk of asking for a change of venue, but this did not develop. Judge Strong in setting the trial docket ordered the case up for March 20 and appointed Judge Rhodes to defend again. A large number of extra jurors will be summoned to enable the attorneys to agree on twelve men. The trial of Tom Watton was set for March 15. Watton was brought into court and entered a plea of not guilty. L.R. Temple was appointed to defend. The case of Laura Garcia, the murderer of Policeman Brockman, took a new angle today. Judge Garbutt, who has handled this case from the start, filed an application with the court to have Garcia sent to an insane asylum, to be kept there until he shall become sane enough to defend. Judge Strong announced that he would hear the application on March 27. |
| Garcia, Lauro | Fort Collins Courier 2-2-1920 – Larimer County Prisoner Declared Insane—Lauro Garcia, the Mexican who several years ago was sentenced to death but later committed to life imprisonment for the murder of Policeman Brockman of Fort Collins, has been declared insane. A special medical board was appointed by Governor Shoup at the request of Warden Tynan to pass upon the sanity of 43 inmates of the state penitentiary; 26 prisoners were found insane and they will be committed to the asylum at Pueblo at a later date. The Brockman murder excited high feeling in this city for several days. Garcia in his flight was wounded by a Union Pacific watchman but avoided arrest until the following day when he was apprehended on the motor near La Salle. Efforts were made to prove him insane at the time of his trial but he was sentenced to death, the sentence being later set aside and a new trial ordered. He was sent to the penitentiary under a life sentence. James Bulger, founder of the Bulger Colony, was also declared insane by the board. |
| Garcia, Lauro | Carbonate Chronicle 2-2-1920 – Insane Men Prisoners – Governor Shoup's Lunacy Commission Finds 26 Inmates of Canon Crazy – Ten of Them Serving Terms for Murder – Denver, Jan. 31. – Twenty-six inmates of the Colorado penitentiary were today declared insane in a report submitted to Governor Shoup by a special lunacy commission recently appointed by him. All but ten of the inmates adjudged insane are serving terms for murder. Among the twenty-eight adjudged insane are James Bulger, Denver soldier of fortune, who on the night of May 6, 1914, killed L. F. Nicodemus, then one of the proprietors of a local hotel, and Oren Slinde, a youth of 20 years, who slew his father and a hired man in a double murder on a farm seventeen miles northwest of Boulder on September 11, 1919. Besides Bulger and Slinde, those convicted of murder who were adjudged insane are: Robert Buchanan, Frank Cantania, John Deitz, Felix Belfino, Lauro Garcia, Robert Hunt, M. Milobar, George Novac, Arthur Norman, James Oldham, J. C. Stewart, Louis Seeley, Al Scott and P. C. Talbot. The others and the crimes for which they were sentenced are: B. A. Comstock, burglary; R. C. Davis, assault to kill; S. H. Shrader, burglary and larceny; G. Schneider, assault to rob; John East, burglary and larceny; J. Smelkert, obstruction of railroad property; Rose Chali, statutory offense; S. Gonzales, indecent liberties; and J. C. Messing, statutory offense. Forty-three inmates were examined by the commission. A competent medical determination of the mental condition of persons committed to the state prison whose sanity appeared doubtful was asked some weeks ago by Warden Thomas J. Tynan. The commission appointed consisted of Dr. Edward Delehanty of Denver; Dr. Howell T. Pershing, of Denver, and Dr. C. W. Thompson, of Pueblo. Governor Shoup recently wrote to all district attorneys in Colorado requesting that great care be exercised in determining whether persons convicted of high crimes were mentally sound. The persons adjudged insane will be at once removed to the state hospital for the insane, according to the authorities. |

| Garlinger, Charles | Telluride Daily Journal 3-3-1908 – Garlinger Found Insane – Charles Garlinger, who was brought down from the Liberty Bell mine Saturday on account of insanity, was tried and duly convicted in the county court yesterday and committed to the charge of Sheriff Fitzpatrick who took him to Pueblo this morning. Garlinger has worked on the Liberty Bell mine for three or four years and of late has kept aloof from the other men, but being a good workman no one paid much attention to him, although it was known that he was a little peculiar. His mania seemed to be money and he had saved up considerable of it, having a certificate of deposit in the Bank of Telluride for $100 and $500 in Denver Banks, besides having sent a good deal to Hamburg, Germany, and it is believed he has money hidden away somewhere. |
| Garlinger, Charles | Telluride Daily Journal 3-6-1908 – Sheriff Fitzpatrick returned on last evening's train after taking Charles Garlinger to the insane asylum at Pueblo. The man was very restive on the way. |

| Gasmann, Charles | Dillon Blue Valley Times 6-27-1914 – Confesses Attack on Girl – Chef Admits He Stabbed Miss Elsie Shannon at Boulder – Boulder. – At the sheriff's office, under the cross-questioning of Deputy District Attorney Martin, Charles Gasmann, the chef at Cook's restaurant, who was arrested in connection with the attack on Miss Elsie Shannon, who was stabbed in the back as she was walking to the home of C. E. Coulehan, broke down and confessed that he was guilty. He did not know the girl, he said, and had absolutely no motive for attacking her. He said that he could not explain, except by saying that a strange feeling came upon him. His confession strengthens the belief that he is irrational although Sheriff Buster said that he thought Gasmann might be shamming. If he could get himself committed to the insane asylum it would be but a short time, in all probability, before he would be released. |

| Gaura, Joe | Oak Creek Times 2-10-1916 - $1,250 Fine For Noftsger – Joe Gaura Held Insane and Removed to Asylum - … Joe Gaura of Oak Creek was adjuged insane by the court Tuesday afternoon and was taken to the insane asylum at Pueblo Wednesday morning by Deputy Sheriff Emory Clark. Gaura lost his mind gradually after his wife left him. For the past week or two he has been totally irresponsible. He claimed that he was going to be elected president, that he had millions of dollars and one of his pet schemes was to make Oak Creek bigger than London. He planned to level all the hills around and erect thousands of brick houses and as he said “Every Hunk is to have a house.” He even asked permission of the town marshal to go out and shoot a man he claims stole his wife… |
| Gaura, Joe | Oak Creek Times 2-17-1916 – Joe Gaura Discovers Congenial Companion – Deputy Sheriff Emory Clark passed through Oak Creek Friday on his way to Steamboat Springs after taking Joe Gaura to the insane asylum at Pueblo. He stated that he had a lively time with his charge as he seemed to become more demented the farther he went. He broke away from the deputy on the viaduct near the depot and ran down the steps but the officer finally caught him. He took him to the asylum as soon as he reached Pueblo and when he turned him over to an attendant, the deputy sheriff said “This is the president of the United States. Just turn the building here over to him.” The official said that he was glad to meet him and replied, “God Almighty is upstairs. I will take him right up and put him with him.” Gaura exclaimed, “All right, all right” and the last the deputy saw of him he was tearing up the stairs to make plans with God Almighty to stop the war. |
| Gaura, Joe | Oak Creek Times 7-20-1916 – Oak Creek Man Dies In Asylum at Pueblo – Word was received last week that Joe Gaura, who was adjudged insane in the county court on February 8, 1916, had died on July 6. Gaura became insane from brooding over family troubles and imagined that he was to be the savior of his country, thinking he had been appointed to take the place of President Wilson. The Routt county lunacy commission, consisting of Drs. Willett and Dodge, acted on his case and found him to be a hopeless lunatic, and at the time concurred in the belief that he could not live longer than a few months. Their opinion was borne out by the death of Gaura. – The Pilot. |
| Gaura, Joe | Routt County Republican 2-18-1916 – Here and There – Interesting Items Gathered From Various Sources So That The Readers of the Republican May Know – Joe Gaura, for the past five years a sober, industrious miner of Oak Creek, was adjudged insane by the lunacy commission consisting of Drs. Dodge and Willett. He was taken to Pueblo by Emory Clark. |
| Gaura, Joe | Steamboat Pilot 2-9-1916 – Oak Creek Man Crazed by War – Joe Gaura Found to be Lunatic Before Routt County Lunacy Commission and Will be Taken to Asylum – Another far reaching effect of the European war was brought to light Monday evening when Sheriff Chivington brought from Oak Creek Joe Gaura, who had become a hopeless lunatic from pondering over the horrors of the war. When the train from Denver stopped at Oak Creek Sheriff Chivington, who was returning from taking the recently convicted prisoners to Canon City and Buena Vista, heard an altercation in one of the adjoining cars and on investigation found that the trainmen were having trouble with Gaura, who imagined that he was president of the United States, and insisted on riding on the train. He was taken into custody at once by the sheriff and brought to Steamboat. The Routt County Lunacy commission, Drs. Dodge and Willett, sat upon the case Tuesday afternoon at the sheriff's office and Deputy District Attorney Ray Monson conducted the examination. Attorney A. A. Mann appeared for Gaura, and A. H. Chivington was the only witness. The questions of the alienists brought out the facts that Gaura had brooded over family troubles and the war until his mind had become unhinged and, besides imagining that he is the president of the United States, he thinks that he is the son of Sheriff Chivington, and when told that Undersheriff E. E. Clark was President Wilson, whom he had been abusing and vilifying, he recognized him as such at once and promptly apologized for the things he had said. He imagines that a German ship has bombarded the city of Washington and killed a million Americans, and though an Austrian, bursts into tears at the mere mention of the imaginary slaughter of the Americans. He spoke of a telegram he had received from President Wilson and claims that he is well acquainted with Franz Josef, king of Austria, and that being president himself he knows all of the European rulers. Gaura is 34 years old and has been in the United States for twelve years. He secured his final papers of citizenship last spring and has been employed in the coal mines of Colorado ever since he came to this country. He has been married for about ten years and nearly two years ago his wife secured a divorce from him. Soon after the divorce she was married to M. Possig, the couple going to Wyoming to have the ceremony performed. Gaura had been a hard worker and had gathered together some town property at Oak Creek. Most of this he made over to his wife, but still is the owner of a house and lot in what is known as the Third addition to Oak Creek. Brooding over the troubles with his wife and reading sensational accounts of the war is the cause of his loss of mind as in some things he seems perfectly rational, telling of methods of mining in his native country in an intelligent manner, and of his experiences while a miner for the Moffat Coal company at Oak Creek. During the labor troubles at Oak Creek, Gaura, after many months of idleness occasioned by the holding out of the strikers, finally returned to work, and since that time has been practically ostracized by all but a few of his countrymen. This made him morose and taciturn, and though not a hard drinker he has drunk rather constantly for more than a year. He will be taken to the insane asylum at Pueblo and it may be that his reason may be restored within a few months by being separated from the old surroundings and placed in a new environment. |
| Gaura, Joe | Steamboat Pilot 2-9-1916 – Emery Clark went to Denver this morning in charge of Joe Gaura, who was committed to the asylum at Pueblo by the county lunacy commission yesterday. |
| Gaura, Joseph | Routt County Sentinel 2-11-1916 – Joe Gaura Found Insane – Joe Gaura, an Austrian miner who has been a resident of Oak Creek for the past five years, was brought to Steamboat Monday night by Sheriff Chivington, and the next day, after an examination by the Lunacy commission, was found to be insane. An order was entered in the County court committing him to the state insane asylum at Pueblo, and Wednesday morning Undersheriff Emory E. Clark started for that point to deliver him to that institution. Gaura, who has been known as an industrious worker, has long brooded over his troubles with his former wife, Agnes Gaura, to whom he was deeply attached but from whom he secured a divorce in July, 1914. He has recently believed that he was the president of the United States, the entire German army, and various other personalities, and is also said to have declared that he (is) going to kill the man whom his former wife married soon after their divorce. |
| Gaura, Joseph | Routt County Sentinel 7-14-1916 – Local News of the Week – Judge Morning of the County court has been notified by the state insane asylum at Pueblo of the death of Joseph Gaura last week Thursday. Gaura, who had long been a resident of Oak Creek, became insane because of brooding over trouble with his wife, and was several months ago sent to the asylum. |

| George, ? | Leadville Daily and Evening Chronicle 6-25-1897 – Locked up as a Lunatic. But the Young Man's Mother Secured His Release. Mrs. George returned yesterday from Pueblo with the intelligence that her son is all right. A few days ago the mother learned that her son, who was making his way toward Trinidad for the purpose of securing work, had been gathered in at Pueblo by a policeman. It appears from Mrs. George's statement that they have queer ways of doing business down in the valley. Evidently the state insane asylum is considered the proper place for all suspicious characters, so Mr. George, who was walking around the depot, was promptly arrested and after a brief examination adjudged insane and hustled out among the lunatics. If the young man was not insane before the rather unpleasant associations had a tendency to make him so, for his protestations of sanity were considered by the astute officials to be one of the sure symptoms of mental aberration. When Mrs. George learned of her son's trouble she applied to County Judge Krell here for assistance and armed with a letter from that official she went to Pueblo, and was successful in securing the release of her boy. |
| George, ? | Record Journal of Douglas County 9-1-1911 – On Tuesday evening, a young man, about ninten (nineteen?) years of age who was wandering through the country, was taken in charge by the sheriff, and at a trial on Wednesday was adjudged insane. His parents were located in Denver and his mother is expected to be up today, and if she can give satisfactory evidence that she can care for the boy she will be given charge of him, otherwise he will be taken to the asylum in Pueblo. |

| German, H.B. | Carbonate Chronicle 11-25-1889 – Adjudged Insane – A Railroad Man Found to Be Demented After Examination by the Doctors – Tuesday afternoon Drs. A. W. Eyer and S. P. Johns, at the request of several members of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Brakemen, examined one of their number, H. B. German as to his sanity. For some time past Mr. German has shown signs of being insane, in so much that he could remember nothing, and acted in a very strange manner. The doctors found that his mind was gone, and recommended that he be sent to the asylum at Pueblo. Some years ago the patient had a paralytic stroke, and to this fact, in a great measure, the doctors ascribe his present malady. Mr. German is perfectly harmless, resides at 829 Poplar street, and has a wife and one child. The members of the association, to which he belongs, are giving him all the attention necessary, and doing everything to make him comfortable. He was a brakeman on the Denver and Rio Grande railway for a number of years. |

| Giles, Oscar M. | Opinion Tribune December 31, 1931 Giles of Co. I Is Given Silver Star Citation by U.S.A. Former Glenwood Boy Who Served With Company I on Border and Over Seas, Given Citation by Government for Act of Bravery Silver star citations for gallantry in action were awarded to two western Iowa world war veterans by the war department in Washington D.C., last week. They are: Warren A. Booth, Shenandoah, and Oscar M. Giles, of Glenwood. Booth, formerly a corporal in Company A, 168th Infantry Forty-Second Division, was honored for gallantry in action at Sergy, France, July 28, 1918. While serving as a member of a patrol sent into Sergy to ascertain if it were still occupied by the enemy. "In town, the patrol encountered violent machine gun fire which resulted in all other members being killed or wounded." The award to former Sergeant Giles, also of the 168th Forty-Second Division, is for bravery during the St. Mihiel offensive, Sept. 13 to 18, 1918. Giles voluntarily joined a raiding party and went forward into the enemy lines and assisted in capturing prisoners and material, the citation declares. Giles is now at the Colorado State hospital. He was a member of the famous Company I of the late World War and was employed as a cook at the State Institution here in Glenwood at the time of his enlistment. He went with the company to the border in 1916, and then over seas. He returned o Glenwood at the close of the war and resumed his position at the State Institution for a time. Leaving here he went to the western coast and he is in very poor health at the present time being as mentioned above, in the Colorado State Hospital. |

| Gilmore, Stanley | Leadville Daily and Evening Chronicle 10-21-1887 – Adjudged Insane. The attraction on the court bulletin during the day was the arraignment of Stanley Gilmore on a lunatico de enquirendo, the complaint having been filed by friends, whose attention for some time past has been attracted to the unfortunate man by his strange and irrational conduct, the latter portion of which resulted in his being arrested and placed in jail on a charge of horse stealing, the particulars of which are found in another column. The action created quite an agitation among those who had known him as an honest, upright and industrious man, and an inquiry into the case was instituted at once. Dr. Eyer was consulted, and after a personal diagnosis of the case, pronounced it one of well-defined insanity. Complaint was made in accordance with this, and Judge Phelps took the matter in hand. At 10 o'clock in the morning the unfortunate man was conducted into the court room, a jury having been empanelled. Considerable interest was manifested in the examination, and the lobby was filled with spectators. C. W. Crews was the first witness sworn. He conducts a dry goods store on East Sixth Street. Gilmore had been in his employ for two years, and was started in business by his employer at Gilman. His conduct became so alarming that Mr. Crews relived him of the establishment. He was of the opinion that the defendant was demented. Mr. Whitman, father-in-law of the defendant, offered in support of the theory of insanity various incompatibilities, saying that Gilmore imagined himself a jeweler, and that he had taken a clock to pieces, and trashed the machinery to repair it. Upon one occasion he had moved his trunk to an abandoned cabin and left it there until his friends had rescued it. Mrs. Whitman testified to his flighty conduct and incoherent yarns concerning mammoth mercantile interests in the east. Ira Newell, a clerk at Mc Robbie's testified to having been raised with Gilmore, and said he was unlike his former self. He had known him as a bright, intelligent young man. Willis Loomis testified to inconsistency of his general conduct, mentioning several things that pointed to lunacy. P. A. Arnold, the Poplar street butcher, had noticed his irrational antics, Gilmore having told him that he had been thrown from a horse and landed on his head. Harry Canfield, druggist, testified to having compounded prescriptions for the defendant for nervous ills, and told how Gilmore passed from one topic to another until he led his audience into a very whirlpool of bewilderment. The defendant being placed upon the stand, said he had been ill for six or eight months, and that he was not now as capable of protecting his business as he had been prior to that period. He preferred to go to the asylum at Pueblo than to undertake to do business. This concluded the testimony, which was very affecting, and which elicited frequent expressions of sympathy from the spectators. The jury deliberated but a moment when a verdict of insanity was returned. The unfortunate man will be sent to Pueblo at once with the hope that his reason will be restored. |

| Glavo, Tviona | Telluride Daily Journal 1-28-1903 – Simply a Crazy Polander – A couple of weeks ago a sensational telegram was sent broadcast over the country telling of the arrest of the supposed murderer of Arthur Collins, at Idaho Springs. The only foundation for the suspicion seems to be the fact that the crazy creature claims to have once worked in the mines of this vicinity. The fellow went into an Idaho Springs restaurant, ordered a meal, was served, and after he had eaten, was about to leave without settling; when the landlady called him down he drew a butcher knife from his pocket and attacked her. The police were summoned and he was arrested. The Gazette, of that city, says in its account of the affair: “Tviona III Glavo is a Polander, twenty-three years old. He came to the United States two and a half years ago and for a time worked in the coal mines of Pennsylvania. A few months ago, he came to Colorado and worked in mines near Telluride. He was employed in the Lamartine mine, and worked one shift, when he was discharged by the superintendent for inefficiency. After losing his job at the Lamartine, Glavo came to Idaho Springs and his first business here was to purchase a butcher knife. Glavo claims that he is an anarchist and imagines that it is his divine mission to exterminate the Jews. He is under the impression that a Jew is following him, and that it is necessary for him to carry a butcher knife to protect himself against this imaginary foe. Glavo is undoubtedly insane. He is suspected of being the man who murdered Superintendent Collins of the Smuggler-Union mine at Telluride, a few weeks ago, and the fact that he worked in the mines of Telluride lends a substance to this suspicion.” |

| Goldmetzer, George | Eagle County Blade 12-24-1903 – George Goldmetzer Apparently Insane – On Monday complaint was made to Sheriff Farnum concerning the mental condition of George Goldmetzer. Goldmetzer for a number of years has resided at Gilman, for some time living alone in a cabin on Rock creek. Connected with the man there has always been an unconfirmed rumor that he had a wife and several children in the old country, and that he came to America on account of a murder which he committed in his native land. Of late he has been acting queerly and on Monday the case was reported to the sheriff. Sheriff Farnum investigated and put the demented man in charge of Henry Newins. Goldmetzer has been drinking heavily of late, which has doubtless aggravated his mental disorder. To the sheriff he admits having killed a man in Germany named Randall and says he can see his name written on the door and walls of his cabin. He also insists that his two daughters, who are in Germany, are living up Rock creek, besides exhibiting other evidences of being badly “off.” Mr. Newins, found, on taking charge of the man, that his feet had lately been badly frost bitten and on yesterday his physical and mental condition was such that County Physician Warren of Minturn was called. Dr. Warren says the man is in a bad condition mentally and is wholly incapable of caring for himself, though his feet are not seriously frozen. He told the doctor quite a different story concerning the murder, and is so irresponsible mentally that he does not recognize his own cabin. A complaint charging him with lunacy will be filed in the County court. |
| Goldmetzer, George | Eagle County Blade 12-31-1903 – Goldmeitzer Adjudged Insane – George Goldmeitzer of Gilman, an account of whose derangement appeared in these columns last week, was arrested on a lunacy charge by Sheriff Farnum last Saturday, and a hearing was held before the County court the same day. Henry Newins and Dr. Warren testified to the man's mental and physical condition. His own appearance, also, as evidenced in the court room supported the charge, and the jury was not long in finding him guilty. Sheriff Farnum took the patient to the state insane asylum at Pueblo Sunday. Goldmeitzer is an Austrian who has for a number of years resided on Battle mountain. |
| Goldmetzer, George | Eagle County Times 1-2-1904 – Taken to Pueblo. George Goldmetzer, a resident of this locality for the past ten or twelve years was given a trial in the County Court last Saturday for insanity, and adjudged to be of unsound mind. Goldmetzer, who is a native of Germany or Austria, has lived very much alone of late years and worked principally at mining in Gilman. He is thought to have a wife and family in the old country. According to his own statements, he killed a man in Germany years ago and that fact caused him to leave home and family. It is unknown whether these admissions are the truth and the effects of the crime on his mind may have driven him insane, or whether they are merely the hallucinations of a mind diseased. Judge Tague ordered and left him in the State Asylum for the man taken to Pueblo, whither the sheriff accompanied him last Sunday, the Insane. Goldmetzer's insanity is not of a violent character, but the trial developed that he was utterly incapable of taking any care of himself whatever. |

| Gonzales, S. | Carbonate Chronicle 2-2-1920 – Insane Men Prisoners – Governor Shoup's Lunacy Commission Finds 26 Inmates of Canon Crazy – Ten of Them Serving Terms for Murder – Denver, Jan. 31. – Twenty-six inmates of the Colorado penitentiary were today declared insane in a report submitted to Governor Shoup by a special lunacy commission recently appointed by him. All but ten of the inmates adjudged insane are serving terms for murder. Among the twenty-eight adjudged insane are James Bulger, Denver soldier of fortune, who on the night of May 6, 1914, killed L. F. Nicodemus, then one of the proprietors of a local hotel, and Oren Slinde, a youth of 20 years, who slew his father and a hired man in a double murder on a farm seventeen miles northwest of Boulder on September 11, 1919. Besides Bulger and Slinde, those convicted of murder who were adjudged insane are: Robert Buchanan, Frank Cantania, John Deitz, Felix Belfino, Lauro Garcia, Robert Hunt, M. Milobar, George Novac, Arthur Norman, James Oldham, J. C. Stewart, Louis Seeley, Al Scott and P. C. Talbot. The others and the crimes for which they were sentenced are: B. A. Comstock, burglary; R. C. Davis, assault to kill; S. H. Shrader, burglary and larceny; G. Schneider, assault to rob; John East, burglary and larceny; J. Smelkert, obstruction of railroad property; Rose Chali, statutory offense; S. Gonzales, indecent liberties; and J. C. Messing, statutory offense. Forty-three inmates were examined by the commission. A competent medical determination of the mental condition of persons committed to the state prison whose sanity appeared doubtful was asked some weeks ago by Warden Thomas J. Tynan. The commission appointed consisted of Dr. Edward Delehanty of Denver; Dr. Howell T. Pershing, of Denver, and Dr. C. W. Thompson, of Pueblo. Governor Shoup recently wrote to all district attorneys in Colorado requesting that great care be exercised in determining whether persons convicted of high crimes were mentally sound. The persons adjudged insane will be at once removed to the state hospital for the insane, according to the authorities. |

| Goodell, Frances | Fort Collins Courier 10-28-1921 – Young Woman Adjudged Insane; Taught School At Log Cabin A While – An unusually sad case was brot to the attention of the Larimer county officials Friday, when a hearing was held to determine the mental condition of Mrs. Frances Goodell, aged about 20. The commission examined the young woman and adjudged her insane and Judge Jay H. Bouton issued an order for her removal to the state institution at Pueblo, where she will likely be taken Saturday. Mrs. Goodell is said to have come to Colorado from Wyoming some time ago and for a period of six months has been teacher of the Elkhorn school, in Larimer county. When she enrolled as a teacher she gave her name as Sally Hollingshead but later asked to have the name changed on the records to Frances Hollingshead. It is stated that about a week ago the young woman was united in marriage to F. C. Goodell and the couple were residing at Log Cabin. The husband accompanied the wife to Fort Collins. |
| Goodell, Frances | Fort Collins Courier 10-29-1921 – Deputy Sheriff H. H.

| Goodfellow, John R. | Colorado Transcript 2-15-1912 – Sheriff Dennis was obliged to take John Goodfellow, living on Prespect Avenue, into custody last week, and complaints charging him with being insane have been lodged. Goodfellow was injured several years ago, and while at times he appears perfectly rational, there are occasions when he is dangerous. A child was born to his wife last Friday, and Goodfellow would not permit anyone to come near the house to give attention to the mother and babe. Later, he partially disrobed himself and started for Clear Creek to swim. The sheriff was called and took the man into custody after a hard fight. Dr. Kelly was called to examine the unfortunate fellow and pronounced him insane. In county court yesterday he was adjudged insane and will be sent to the asylum. |
| Goodfellow, John R. | Colorado Transcript 2-22-1912 – John R. Goodfellow, residing near Edgewater, was on the verdict of a jury, adjudged an insane person, and committed to the State insane Asylum at Pueblo. |

| Gordon, S.A. | Telluride Journal 9-26-1912 – La Plata Miner Missing – Lafe and Dan Carson, who came down from the Needles yesterday brought the news of the disappearance of S. A. Gordon, who has been working on Dr. Dowdey's mining properties in the Vallecito basin. For a number of days the man gave evidence of being mentally unbalanced. He carried an old box under his arm which he believed was a precious treasure. He refused to communicate with any of the men in the neighborhood as he seemed to think they were plotting to rob him. Five days ago he wandered away and thus far all efforts to locate him have been fruitless. It is feared that he has perished as the cold up there is intense and it is also a considerable distance to any point where he could obtain food and shelter. On a previous occasion Gordon became temporarily insane and disappeared in much the same manner, but he was located two days later above Silverton near where the members of his family reside. The Carson brothers have put in the principal part of the past five days and nights searching for the lost man. Dr. Dowdey also has parties aiding in the search. That particular section of the country is so rough and almost inaccessible that it is only with great difficulty that the would-be rescuers can cover the ground. – Durango Herald. |

| Gould, Mary E. | Greeley Tribune 6-20-1901 – Tries To Do Murder. Bloody Work of an Insane Woman in Lone Tree Valley Yesterday. Tries To Kill Her Husband. Fires the House, Changes her Mind and Puts it Out, Refuses to be Taken, Under Sheriff Williams Goes After Her. Mrs. Amos Gould, of Lone Tree valley, made a murderous attack upon her husband at their home about 1 o'clock Wednesday morning. Stabbing him in the neck with a knife, cutting a branch of a main artery, and later striking him a blow on the back of the head laying open a circular wound and almost rendering him unconscious. The circumstances were as follows: Tuesday evening, Mr. Gould had remonstrated with his wife on account of an indiscretion committed by her, which he says now is clearly attributable to her mental condition, when she passed into a state of insane frenzy; finally she became calmer and went to bed, but the husband left the lamp burning and taking their six year-old daughter, laid down upon the lounge, intending to remain awake and watch her all night; but towards 1 o'clock fell asleep and was awakened by a stab in the neck, and the form of his wife bending over him and the child, ready for another thrust; she had extinguished the light before beginning her murderous work, and in the dark the husband grappled with her trying to wrest the knife from her hand, while blood flowed in a stream from the gash in his neck. He finally succeeded in taking the knife from her, while he re-lit the lamp, she ran around the house, entered from another door and struck him on the head with something, he knew not what; he reeled and almost fell, but seeing his insane assailant again closing in on him, rallied and escaping from her, caught up the child in his arms and ran with all speed to the home of the nearest neighbor, Frank Cook. W. O. Cook, a son of Frank Cook, whose house was about a mile farther on, was sent for, and later, the three men returned to the Gould home to see what had become of the wife; they found no one at the house, but the floor showed that a fire had been started with the evident intention of burning the house, and then put out with water. A search began for the wife, and ended in finding her lying on the ground in her night clothes on the prairie some distance from the house. The early mists of a foggy morning hid the searching party from her until close upon her, when both she and the family dog with her were at once on the defensive, then they decided to drive to Greeley and place the case in the hands of the proper authorities, which they did, arriving here about 10 o'clock Wednesday morning; a complaint, charging Mrs. Gould with insanity was formally made, necessary papers issued by Judge Jacobs and placed in the hands of Under Sheriff Williams with instructions to bring accused into court. Mr. Williams started at once and returned about 3:30 in the afternoon with Mrs. Gould, whom he stated gave every evidence of insanity, although no show of violence was made. When about five miles this side of her home he met her walking in this direction. She was taken to the county house for the night, and will have a hearing before Judge Jacobs this afternoon at 2 o'clock. |
| Gould, Mary E. | Greeley Tribune 6-27-1901 - Mrs. Mary E. Gould, wife of Amos Gould, an account of whose insane attempt to murder her husband was published in last week's Tribune, was tried in county court Thursday afternoon, found insane and taken to Pueblo to the state asylum by Under Sheriff Williams, assisted by Mrs. Williams, Friday morning. On Thursday night at the county house, she had a hard epileptic fit, and did not come out of the stupor following it until after they reached Pueblo. She was quiet, however, and gave no trouble. It is not thought probable that she will ever recover her reason. |

| Graham, Al | Fort Collins Weekly Courier 8-6-1902 – Deputy Sheriff Richart and City Marshall Ryckman went to Stove Prairie last Saturday afternoon to take Al Graham into custody. Graham is charged with being of unsound mind and his neighbors, fearing he might either injure himself or others, filed complaint in the county court charging him with insanity. The officers returned Sunday morning with Graham, who will probably have a hearing today. |
| Graham, Al. | Fort Collins Weekly Courier 8-20-1902 – Graham Mentally Unbalanced.—The case of the People vs. Al. Graham, charged with lunacy, was tried in the county court on Thursday afternoon. A verdict for the people was returned by the jury, and Mr. Graham was committed to the insane asylum at Pueblo. The jury were: Albert L. Breniman, J. H. Miller, C. R. Secord, H. D. Humphrey, J. H. Wagers, J. W. Heenderson. Witness for the defense, Mr. Graham, brother of defendant; for prosecution, W. P. Bosworth, Thomas Morgan, Andrew Rutherford, John Rychman, Wm. Richart. Dr. C. F. Wilkins, Dr. P. J. McHugh. Dr. W. A. Killgore, experts. |
| Graham, Al. | Fort Collins Courier 3-13-1907 – Paralysis Cause of Mat Graham's Death—Coroner W. T. Hollowell returned Monday evening from Stove Prairie landing with the body of M. J. Graham, who was found dead in his cabin by a boy last Saturday. After a careful investigation Mr. Hollowell came to the conclusion that Graham died from natural causes and that an inquest was unnecessary. He thinks the deceased died suddenly from a severe stroke of paralysis, as the history of the man and all the surrounding circumstances seem to indicate that as the cause. The burial took place from Hollowell's undertaking rooms at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Mr. Graham was a hunter and prospector and had been a resident of the Stove Prairie country a good many years. He was about 63 years of age and had lived alone in a cabin on the bank of the river, three miles from neighbors for several years. He was last seen alive on Thursday of last week, and the supposition is that he died on Friday night. He had gone to bed evidently, as he had on his night shift. He had been employed lately at prospecting for a Mr. Carpenter, who supplied him with food. Graham leaves no property and his funeral expenses were borne by his employer, Mr. Carpenter. A brother of the dead man, Al Graham, is an inmate of the insane asylum at Pueblo, having been committed from this county several years ago. |
| Graham, Colonel | Leadville Democrat 5-11-1881 – On motion it was ordered that a committee of three be appointed with power to act regarding the sending of an insane man, Colonel Graham, to an asylum. |
| Graham, E.L. | Fort Collins Courier 9-10-1896 – St. Cloud – Two persons have been adjudged insane in the county court this week and committed to the asylum at Pueblo. The first was the case of E. L. Graham of Stove Prairie, upon which an inquisition was held on Tuesday, and the second was that of Mrs. Julia N. Town who was tried on Wednesday. The juries found them both insane and Judge Bailey committed them to the asylum. Graham was taken to Pueblo on Wednesday and Mrs. Town will go at a later date. |

| Graves, Abner | Abner Graves, died 10-4-1926, buried in Denver |
| Graves, Abner | Collbran Plateau Voice 6-27-1924 – Denver – Mrs. Minnie L. Graves, 48 years old, who was shot four times by her husband, Abner Graves, 90 years old, in their home here, died at the General hospital. |
| Graves, Abner | American Heritage Magazine 7-01-1983 – The Man Who Didn't Invent Baseball – Abner Doubleday Had an Eventful Life, But as Far as We Know, He Never Gave a Thought to the Game With Which His Name is So Firmly Linked by Victor Salvatore – … The inventor (of baseball) is supposed to be the Civil War general Abner Doubleday; he is supposed to have thought up the game in 1839. This is a doublebarreled historical falsehood… But what about that “reputable gentleman” on whose testimony Mills bases the Doubleday-Cooperstown story? Who was this man? He was Abner Graves. In his letter to the Mills commission, Spalding described him: “Mr. Abner Graves was a boy playmate and fellow pupil of Abner Doubleday at Green's Select School in Cooperstown, N. Y., in 1839. Mr. Graves, who is still living, says he was present when Doubleday first outlined with a stick in the dirt the present diamond-shaped Base Ball field, including the location of the players in the field, and afterwards saw him make a diagram of the field on paper, with a crude pencil, and memorandum of the rules for this new game, which he named 'Base Ball.' As Mr. Graves was one of the youths that took part in this new game under Doubleday's direction, his interesting and positive account is certainly entitled to serious consideration.” Perhaps the shakiest part of Spalding's letter to the baseball commission is the sentence that describes Graves and Doubleday as “playmates.” Doubleday was born in Ballston Spa, New York,on June 26, 1819. Graves was born in Cooperstown on February 27, 1834. That makes Doubleday nearly fifteen years older than Graves. So in 1839 Graves was five years old and his “playmate,” Doubleday, was nearly twenty. Graves had a long life. And this life, if Graves himself is to be believed, was colorful. At fourteen, Graves said, he rounded Cape Horn under sail. He said he was one of the first pony express riders. After the Civil War he was briefly in the cattle and farming business in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and spent the last thirty years of his life in Denver. He acquired coal properties in Wyoming, just across the Colorado state line. He was married twice, the second time when he was seventy-five and his wife, Minnie, thirty-three. In June 1924 Graves, then aged ninety and so crippled he could not walk, shot and fatally wounded Minnie after a quarrel over her refusal to sign a bill of sale for their house. In the hospital the dying woman sent her husband a message of forgiveness but she also cut him out of her will. Graves, who was admitted to an adjoining ward “a physical and mental wreck” according to the Denver Post, “lay muttering 'I hope she dies' as his wife neared death.” A jury judged Graves criminally insane, and he was committed to the state asylum in Pueblo. He died there in the autumn of 1926… |
| Graves, Abner | Pueblo Chieftain 10-5-1926 – Graves, Abner, age 92 years, died at a local hospital Monday, Oct. 4. He is survived by one son, Nels Graves. The body will be forwarded to Denver by the Davis Mortuary. |

Both men in their raving, talked of a dreadful tragedy which they had known of, and it is the belief of many that the tragedy referred to was the blowing up of the Independent depot last June. |

He became insane and was sent to the asylum. Later he was discharged and went to the home of his parents in Kansas. Recently he received word that his old place was open for him and he was to meet Wells in Denver and go back with him. Three days ago he was ready to start. He seemed perfectly rational at the breakfast table. He has not been seen since and it is feared that he has wandered off in a fit of mental derangement. |

He could not recall the names of the members of the jury with whom he was intimately acquainted, and his talk was for the most part, incoherent and meaningless.

A few weeks ago he conceived the idea that he was the greatest swimmer on the face of the earth and called at The Times office and had a notice published to the effect that he was going to enter the contest at the Glenwood pool on the occasion of the opening of the Hotel Colorado. He detailed at length the wonderful acquatic feats he would perform. Several weeks later it was probably with this same idea in his mind that he leaped from a bridge into the Roaring Fork and was barely saved from drowning by Jesse Bruton who pulled him from the water after he had become insensible. Mr. Green has resided in Aspen for several years and heretofore has been an inoffensive and quiet citizen. Judge Johnson will probably send him to the insane asylum at Pueblo today. |

The jury found him insane and he was taken by Sheriff Hoffman to the asylum at Pueblo. Green, after being under the care of County Physician Alexander for a week, was still unable to tell much of anything about himself. It is probable, however that after a short time at the asylum he will regain his reason. |

He was found at the old Juniper mine, where he had sought shelter in a deserted building. He had apparently been without food for several days, and if he had not been taken in charge would doubtless have perished from exposure and starvation. He is unable to tell clearly where he came from, but admits that he has served penitentiary sentences in New Mexico and Florida. |

| Greer, Mary | Colorado Weekly Chieftan 10-23-1879 The new insane asylum at Pueblo is to be ready for reception of patients on the 20th., next Monday,. Arapahoe county,says the Times, will immediately transfer its seven patients from Oak Lawn Retreat, and two –E. T. Mauff and Dennis Haggarty- from the county jail to the new institution. Several men will be sent to Jacksonville to guard the patients while on their way here. They will probabably leave for their unwelcome task on Saturday morning, and if they succeed in transfering their charges without incident or accident, we shall be mistaken. Not to speak of the well known lunatic Robert Burke,who refuses to eat or drink from the hands of another, and Cosmo Cannales, the vindictive foreigner, a new obstacle will be presented in the unwieldy person of Lizzie Halpin, the woman who was sent east last fall, and who was before her departure so well known herebouts. Lizzie has become so large and fat that she cannot move without assistance. Superintendent McFarland has awakened to find a white elephant on his hands, and is sorely perplexed therby. In a letter to Mr. Crocker, just received, he says: “She (Halpin) is enormously corpulent, and is at the same time entirely paralyzed in her lower extremities. She is a mere mountain of flesh, and so helpless as to be unable to get from the floor to the low bedstead except by a dead lift by several persons. I am getting concerned for her fate in the event of a fire, as all of my patients are above the first story. In such event everything would be in ashes before all my available force would get her to the ground.” McFarland was considering the advisability of building a separate house for this woman's sole occupation. If so much trouble is experienced in taking care of her while at the asylum, and surrounded by trained guards and all the special conveniences of that institution, what will be the experience of the man to whom her body is intrusted for removal to Pueblo? We pause to tremble. It is suggested that the county officers might purchase a tent upon her arrival, and meet a portion of the expenses by a judiciously managed side-show exhibition. Arapahoe county has seven patients to go to the insane asylum at Pueblo from Oak Lawn Retreat in Jacksonville, Illinois. The commissioners have just issued an order to Mr. James Duggan to transport these patients from Oak Lawn to the institution at Pueblo. The names of the insane ones are Robert Burke, Eliza Hopkins, Mary Greer, Cosmo Gonsales, David Kline, and Moses Millsap. These are almost all incurables, Mr. Duggan will leave for Illinois on Satuday with a guard. |

Grover, living at 1317 Blake street, was taken to Denver recently from Loveland, and taken to the county hospital. Raving and struggling with his keepers for liberty, he fought them during the long drive from the mountain camp to the station, and weak and exhausted he recalls over and over again in his delirium the awful night of privation. His condition is serious, and little hope is entertained that he will ever again regain his normal condition. Over a year ago he suffered a sunstroke while working with a timber gang in the mining camp, and since then his mind has been unbalanced, subjecting him to fits of insanity. During these fits he would be violent, and had it not been for the faithful care of his wife he might have taken his life. |

| Gulden, Eli | Eagle County Times 6-18-1904 – A Raving Maniac. Mr. Eli Gulden, formerly well known here and at Gilman and Bell's camp, but for the past few years a resident of Fulford, was brought in from that camp last Saturday evening by the sheriff in a wretched condition of complete mental collapse. The unfortunate man was placed in a room on West Eagle avenue in the custody of a couple of attendants and from that time until noon Monday, when he was taken to the asylum at Pueblo, he continued to make night and day hideous with his demoniacal yells, curses, imprecations and obscenity. Gulden has been living alone in Camp Tolford in a well constructed log building put up by himself far from other habitations. For some time past he has been observed to be acting strangely and was supposed to be becoming non compos, but it was only in the last few days that his mental condition began to show alarming symptoms and that the authorities were notified of the necessity of looking after him. Monday he was given a trial before County Judge Tague and a jury, and a crazier-appearing and acting individual never probably was seen in the County Court. The formality of examining witnesses and pronouncing Eli insane having been duly gone through, he was given into the sheriff's charge and taken by that official to the asylum at Pueblo on the next train eastbound. Gulden has principally followed mining and milling during his residence in these parts and it is said his insanity is due in part at least to the problems of milling and reduction of ores. He has no relatives in this part of the world as far as has been ascertained, but is thought to have somewhere back in Pennsylvania. |
| Gulden, Elias G. | Eagle County Blade 6-16-1904 – Gulden Insane – Pitiful Case of Violent Derangement From Fulford – Elias G. Gulden, a prospector well known in the Fulford District was brought to the county seat last Saturday by Sheriff Frank Farnum, violently insane. Gulden was brought to Eagle by J. H. Lemmon and Constable Frank Guenon, of Fulford, and turned over to A. D. McKenzie, chairman of the board of county commissioners, who delivered him to the sheriff. Gulden had very few rational moments, during the latter part of his detention in Red Cliff none at all. He was held under guard until Monday morning, when he was tried in the County Court on a charge of lunacy. In court he was absolutely irresponsible and raved all the time oblivious to his surroundings. With his hands secured it required two men constantly at his side to restrain him. Sheriff Farnum and Dr. Gilpin were the only witnesses and the jury promptly convicted Gulden of the charge. He was conveyed to the state asylum at Pueblo the same day. Gulden is about 60 years of age and for a long time has been considered queer. He has been a hard drinker and when on a spree would imbibe anything that contained alcohol. A brother-in-law, Dr. D. W. Bortz, of Easterly, Pennsylvania, and a sister, of Shaffer, Pennsylvania, have been notified by Sheriff Farnum, of his condition. |
| Gulden, Elias G. | Eagle County Blade 6-23-1904 - On Sunday Sheriff Frank Farnum received a telegram from Superintendent Bussey, of the state insane asylum, saying that Elias G. Gulden had died at the institution. Gulden was convicted of insanity in the County Court here on June 13th as recorded in these columns last week, and committed to the asylum on the same date. He was violently deranged, and when received at the asylum Superintendent Bussey predicted to Sheriff Farnum that he would not live two weeks. Upon receiving information of his death Sheriff Farnum notified relatives in Pennsylvania, as he also did at the time of deceased's commitment to the asylum, but nothing has been heard from them. |

| Gunn, Homer L. | Hugo Range Ledger 5-20-1922 – Will Receive a Goodly Sum – Thru the Efforts of Congressman Timberlake, the Service Record of Grover A. Sherill, Deceased, Is Corrected – The editor of the Ledger received a letter from Hon. Chas. B. Timberlake, our good representative in Congress, last Friday morning which brought cheer and everlasting gratitude into the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Hawthorne, foster parents of Grover A. Sherrill, also known as Homer L. Gunn, who passed away at the State Insane asylum at Pueblo, last December and was buried in Evergreen cemetery, near Hugo, on Christmas day. The letter briefly stated that a sum amounting to about $3400, had been allowed by the Veteran's Bureau to the estate of the young man, and would be paid to the administrator of his estate. This means that the blight on the record of the young man while a member of the U. S. navy has been removed, and his name restored to good standing. Mr. and Mrs. Hawthorne had come into Hugo last Friday morning, expecting to leave for Houston, Texas, where they expect to reside, when they received the news from Washington and as it was necessary to take out administration papers on Grover's estate they delayed their departure until Saturday morning. In this connection, a short history of the case will prove interesting to our readers. Grover A. Sherrill was born at Fallstown, Texas, Nov. 23, 1887, where he grew to manhood. When fourteen months of age, his mother died and his oldest sister, Mrs. W. A. Hawthorne, took him in charge, caring for him as though her own child. On Sept. 5th, 1912, he enlisted in the U. S. navy, advancing to a first-class fireman, being honorably discharged with an excellent record, after four years service, in September, 1916. He came home to visit his foster parents and other relatives in Texas. In July, 1917, shortly after the United States became involved in the World's war, he re-enlisted in the navy, but served only a short time, when he was placed in a naval hospital in England, afflicted with a private disease; later, he was brought to an army hospital in New York City, where he received his discharge from the navy, on October 11, 1918, his discharge paper stating the cause as “his own misconduct.” He came home to his foster parents in Texas, and to them claimed that his condition was due more to the ill-treatment received in the English hospital, than it was to the disease. Later he came with Mr. and Mrs. Hawthorne to their new home in Colorado, where they located on a farm a few miles northwest of Hugo. His condition grew worse slowly until he became helplessly bedfast over a year ago, unable in mind to know even those near and dear to him. Last summer, thru the kindness of Mrs. S. M. Crosby, sister of Mrs. Hawthorne, the aid of the editor was called into the case. Mr. Miles, the editor of the Ledger, immediately communicated with Mr. Timberlake at Washington, who asked for a full detailed statement of the case with affidavits, etc., at the same time, expressing grave doubt as to success in getting the claim allowed, under the circumstances of the last discharge paper. However, Mr. Timberlake as usual gave the matter active attention, going personally to the Veterans' Bureau and urging careful consideration of the case, his efforts finally proving successful. In the meantime, the young man was adjudged insane before County Judge Hedlund and the lunacy commission in the county court last August, and taken to the state asylum at Pueblo where he passed away on December 21, 1921. As a result of Mr. Timberlake's invaluable services in this case, assisted by the editor, Mr. and Mrs. Hawthorne will now receive the compensation due the young man from the government during his life time, for their faithful care of him during his over two years of helplessness, and all claims will be paid by the Veterans' Bureau. The editor of the Ledger feels justly proud of the part he had in the case, for against great odds, we have been able to assist in righting what we believed to be a wrong, and at the same time gave our services gratuitously and willingly helped Mr. and Mrs. Hawthorne, whom we believed worthy of every effort we might put forth in their behalf, for if the young man had committed offense, he himself paid the penalty with his life. Our County Judge, Hon. P. O. Hedlund has also did his part in aiding Mr. and Mrs. Hawthorne, and is entitled to full credit for his part in the case. However, without Mr. Timberlake's aid, we feel that our local efforts would have resulted only in failure, so to him we extend our sincere thanks for his noble efforts in this very worthy cause. |

| Guthrie, Madeline Estella Gordon Wood | Collbran Plateau Voice 11-29-1918 – Mrs. Madeline E. Guthrie – Word was received last Saturday from Pueblo that Mrs. N. F. Guthrie had died in a hospital in that city. Several months ago Mrs. Guthrie's health became very poor, and her illness so affected her mind that it was thought best to send her to the hospital for the insane at Pueblo. She never regained her health, grew steadily worse, in fact, and the end came on the 23rd of November. The body was shipped to this place for burial, and the funeral and interment was at the Eagalite Cemetery, Tuesday, November 26th, at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Rev. James F. Walker conducted the short funeral service. Madeline Estella Gordon was born at Rawlow, Missouri, August 25, 1871, making her age at the time of her death 47 years, two months and 29 days. She was left an orphan at an early age, through the death of both her parents. When a young woman she came to Colorado to visit an old school friend, and was married at Trinidad, when 19 years of age, to Percy O. Wood. To this union were born four children, a son and three daughters. Two of these, now Mrs. John Stites Jr., and Mrs. Zach Bryant, both of Collbran, survive their mother.
