Insane Asylum Patients & Personnel
| L'Esperance, William L. | Leadville Daily and Evening Chronicle 2-12-1886 A Mad Man's Acts. Evening assaults upon unprotected women on West side streets have been frequent during the past few weeks, culminating in the terrible attack on the Kilroy girl with a club last week. Police in citizen's clothes have been detailed to search for the offender, and today William L. L'Esperance, a clerk, 32 years of age, was arrested on suspicion. He has a wife living on the West side, from whom he has been separated some time, and whom he has of late frequently persecuted by unwelcome attentions. He has also several times attempted criminal assaults upon her sister. He was visited at the police station today by several women, who of whom identify him as their assailant. It is strongly suspected that he is the assailant of the Kilroy girl, who is still ill from her injuries. The theory of the police is that he took her for his wife. L'Esperance is, doubtless insane, he having been recently discharged from the insane hospital. He is to be examined by physicians tomorrow, and will no doubt, be returned to the hospital. |

| Lafon, Leona | Routt County Sentinel 12-16-1921 Taken to State Hospital Sheriff C. W. Neiman left this morning for Pueblo, taking two patients, Mrs. Clark Lafon of Yampa and Joe Toth of Oak Creek, to the State hospital, as the result of a hearing by the Lunacy commission. Mr. Lafon accompanied his wife, as an attendant. Mrs. Lafon, who was formerly Miss Leona Souther, has been considered mentally unbalanced for some time, as has been the case with Mr. Toth, a native of Hungary who has been in the United States for 18 years, at least 10 of which have been spent at Oak Creek, where he owns several dwelling houses. His unfortunate condition is thought to have been caused by an accident which he sustained in a mine, a year or two ago. |

| Lambert, Priscilla | 16 March 1889 Aspen Weekly Times (Aspen, Pitken County) A LUNACY CASE Priscilla Lambert, a woman of about 50 years old, was before Judge Strickland yesterday upon an inquisition into her sanity. It was shown that her reason was gone, and she will be taken to the state insane asylum. She claimed relationship with the family with whom she was staying, but it appeared that none existed, and that they had taken her in and were caring for her purely as an act of charity. |
| Lambert, Priscilla | Aspen Weekly Chronicle 3-18-1889 Adjudged Insane A middle aged lady was yesterday brought before the county court to be examined as to her mental condition. A jury was empaneled, and the facts were developed that her name was Priscilla Lambert, that she was 45 years of age, and was demented but as yet had shown no violent symptoms. The lady was also found to be suffering with epileptic fits. She came here on January 7th, and from that date to the present time has been cared for by two young ladies, who could not longer afford so to do. The jury found her to be demented, and she will be sent to Pueblo as soon as possible. |

| Lampshire, Ed | Leadville Evening Chronicle 8-30-1890 Supposedly Insane Pitiable Condition of a Shift Boss at the Lucy B. Hussey The sheriff's office was notified yesterday afternoon that there was an insane man creating something of a sensation in the vicinity of the Lucy B. Hussey shaft on East Fifth street. Deputies Horrigan and Curtin at once went to the scene and brought Ed. Lampshire down to the county jail, where he was placed in a cell. Lampshire seemed to be violently insane. It took four men to hold him, so desperately did he resist capture, and he appeared very much excited when being brought down town in the wagon. He is a young man, and has been employed as shift boss on the Lucy B. Hussey shaft. Yesterday morning the employes noticed that he was acting in a very peculiar way, and later began to get alarmed when he commenced to break in the windows of some cabins. They supposed he was intoxicated and sent word to the sheriff's office. Last night Lampshire became calmer, and relatives removed him to his residence, where, with proper care, it is hoped to eventually restore his mind. |
| Lampshire, Edward | Castle Rock Journal 9-3-1890 Edward Lampshire, a well-known Leadville miner and for a long time past shift boss at the Lucy B. Hussey, went violently insane Thursday afternoon at the mine, and made numerous efforts to do away with some of his companions. Luckily he was captured before he had done any harm. |

| Lapin, Cecil | Durango Democrat 2-5-1904 He Flew the Coop Woodcroft Hospital, Pueblo, Colorado. Jos. O. Smith, Sheriff, Durango, Colo. My Dear Sir: - I beg to say that Cecil Lapin, concerning whom I wrote you about one month ago escaped from the place last evening and is still at large. He has been apparently well for two weeks, and we had him at work with the outdoor men and he walked off. We have a man looking for him, but as yet he has not located him. He, apparently, had no idea that he was wanted again in Durango, and I am inclined to think that an attack of insanity was returning, as his condition has seemed absolutely good for two or three weeks. He was a very insane man when committed here. His malady was of such a type that it yielded promptly to treatment. His mother's name is Mrs. S. R. Lapin Galena, Woods county, Oklahoma, and his sister, Mrs. Florence M. Corbin, of the same address. I think, without doubt, he will go to them, unless my man apprehends him before he leaves town. I did not know whether you still wanted him or not. I am sorry that he made his escape without the usual formalities of discharge, although his mental condition at the time of leaving was good. I am very truly yours, Hubert Work, Supt. [This is the insane man from the Piedra country. He was nutty, all right. Ed.] |
| Lapling, J.J. | Durango Democrat 1-31-1904 Denver Passenger Conductor Insane Bloomington, Ill., Jan. 30. J. J. Lapling of Denver, for ten years passenger conductor on the Union Pacific railroad, was today adjudged insane. He declared that he had been forced by hypnotic influence exercised by his sister-in-law in Bloomington to travel 2,000 miles to meet her and that he had constantly received telepathic messages from her. |
| LaPorte, Louis | Leadville Daily and Evening Chronicle 4-15-1893 La Porte Insane. A Case in Which Lead Poisoning is the Cause of Lunacy. Louis La Porte, who has been in the county jail for some days past troubled with mental unsoundness, was brought into the county court yesterday, and two doctors and a number of other witnesses described the weakness of his gray matter to a jury. La Porte, it seems, is a Frenchman, who comes of very good family, but after coming west has had rather hard luck. He worked down at the American smelter, and became leaded. He went to the Sister's hospital, and received treatment from Drs. Bosanko and D'Avignon. The peculiar effects of the lead on his system made themselves manifest recently, and resulted in an almost complete demoralization of the brain. The insanity manifested itself in a fixed idea that he was pursued night and day by a doctor with a huge knife, who was going to cut his throat. The apparition of the M.D. and the knife haunted the unfortunate man to such a degree that he attempted to climb out of jail; and succeeded in breaking the window and severely cutting his hand. Both Drs. Crook and D'Avignon examined the man, and were satisfied of his insanity, and that it was dangerous to permit him at large. They stated that lead poisoning was a prolific cause of insanity and this was especially true at this altitude. The only cure was a change of scene and complete rest. Several of La Porte's friends testified as to the mental condition of the man, and corroborated the statement of the doctors as to his mental hallucinations. The jury, composed of A. G. Thomson, J. H. Crocker, L. J. Neal, M. O. Sandallo, Harry Bicgroarty, and Pat O'Grady, decided that La Porte was crazy, and that he be sent to Pueblo. |

| Lappin, Mr. | Durango Wage Earner 12-3-1903 A Mr. Lappin of Pine river, who was lately adjudged insane, was taken to Pueblo Monday by Under Sheriff Thompson and placed in the insane asylum at that place. The unfortunate man was so violent that it became necessary to bind him hand and foot and strap him to a stretcher. There are not many people in this world who are in such bad straits but that they are able to find others in still worse shape. |
| Laquerre, ? | Leadville Daily and Evening Chronicle 7-12-1888 Adjudged Insane. Joe Love, who was arrested on Tuesday by under Sheriff Loomis was adjudged insane in the county court yesterday morning, the jury recommending that he be sent to the Pueblo insane asylum. The crowded condition of the Pueblo asylum, however, makes this impossible at present. A Frenchman named Laquerre, who is now confined in the county jail, was also adjudged insane last week, but could not be sent to Pueblo for the same reason. The two Lake county candidates for admission will therefore, have to remain in the county jail here, until a vacancy occurs. |

Geo. got her there all right, however, and returned home on Saturday. |

| Latham, W. S. | Fort Collins Courier 6-18-1885 W. S. Latham Adjudged Insane - The Courier has refrained from mentioning the sad case of lunacy in this vicinity for fear of causing undue excitement to the subject, and out of sympathy to his friends. Mr. W. S. Latham first came to Collins April 28th, this year, and since then has been stopping near Laporte with Mr. C. R. Salisbury whose wife is Mr. Latham's step-daughter. Mr. Latham is about forty years of age, and has been a very intelligent and active business man. For four years he was sheriff of Republican county, Kansas, from which place he came here. He was also a deputy U. S. marshal for some time. A severe sunstroke, received last August, unsettled his faculties, since which time he has been subject t fits of insanity. The story of his having hidden a large sum of money among the rocks in the foothills is true. The amount was $1,250, the larger part of which has been found. He was finally given an examination before probate court, Wednesday morning of this week, and was adjudged insane. Relatives in Ohio have been telegraphed and if they will become responsible for his safety and actions, Latham will be sent to them. Otherwise, he will be sent to Pueblo. |

| Laughlin, John | Eagle County Blade 6-15-1905 Adjudged Insane On last Friday Sheriff Henry took one John Laughlin into custody at Minturn, charged with insanity. Laughlin was brought to Red Cliff and arraigned in the County court under the charge Saturday morning. Dr. Arthur Monismith and other witnesses from Minturn testified as to the man's condition and the man himself was interrogated, all of which showed conclusively that Laughlin was mentally unsound. The unfortunate man has been employed as a railroad section man and a couple of weeks ago had a number of severe epileptic fits or spasms. At that time he was sent to the hospital at Salida and the epilepsy seems to have been checked but his mind is almost totally gone. On his person was found documentary evidence that he is a member in good standing of the Odd Fellows and of the Way Employees association. He could tell no connected story of his recent movements, and in fact did not know where he was and but very little else except his name. No definite trace of any relatives could be found and Sheriff Henry conveyed Laughlin to the asylum at Pueblo Saturday night. |

| Lawrence, Joseph | Greeley Tribune 8-6-1903 - Joseph Lawrence (Joe Gail) was last Thursday adjudged insane in the county court, and Friday morning Sheriff Elliott took him to the asylum in Pueblo. Lawrence was a well known character about town and had not been right in his mind for several years. Lately, however, his actions were such as to make it unsafe to leave him at large longer. |

| Lawson, Cornelius | Eagle County Blade 6-11-1908 A Pathetic Case. Cornelius Lawson, one of the old timers of the county, is in Red Cliff in custody of the sheriff. Some time since Mr. Lawson was placed in the poor farm. Lately the superintendent of the poor farm has had considerable trouble with him and the sheriff was called to take the patient into custody. Lawson was brought to Red Cliff last Saturday and A. E. Messersmith, of Gypsum, swore to a complaint in the county court charging him with lunacy. On Monday Mr. Lawson was tried and the jury found him so distracted in his mind as to be dangerous to himself and others and he was taken to the Woodcroft hospital at Pueblo. While not violent the old man is utterly incompetent to take care of himself. His mind appears to have completely failed and he is in weak physical health. This is a pathetic case. Mr. Lawson is one of the pioneers of the state and of this county. He has been in a humble way one of its upbuilders and was among the advance guard of the early prospectors and settlers. Many friends regret that his declining days should have to be spent in a public institution. The afflicted man was never married and no friends to whom he can go are known. |
| Lawson, Darian | Hugo Range Ledger 1-27-1917 In the county court Tuesday before Judge Hedlund, and the lunacy commission, Drs. H. Edw. Bacon and F. W. Lloyd, Darian Lawson of Limon was tried on a charge of insanity, but after hearing the evidence, Judge Hedlund discharged him. On Wednesday, Mrs. Salatha Ridenoure of the Kendrick district, who is 82 years of age, was adjudged by the same commission and Judge Hedlund to be mentally incompetent, and her son, Thomas, was duly appointed conservator to take charge of his mother's property and homestead. |

| Lee, Edmund | Rocky Mountain Sun 11-19-1892 Edwin Lee, the insane prisoner confined in the county jail awaiting transit to the state asylum, is an imbecile of the worst description and cannot attend to his simplest wants. The consequence is that his condition is deplorable in the extreme and actually sickening to the other inmates of the jail. He needs a constant personal attendant, and should have it. [Other articles give his name as Edmund Lee, not Edwin Lee.] |
| Lee, Edmund | 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.] |
| Lee, Edmund R. | Aspen Daily Leader 10-28-1892 Lee Is So Foolish He Is as Crazy as the Historical Bed Bug Six of His Fellow Men Say So The Queer Hallucinations of a Reason Dethroned Individual Who Says He Has Not Slept for Six Months A man took the witness stand in the county court yesterday afternoon and loudly affirmed that he had not had a wink of sleep for six months, and promised that if he was accorded his freedom he would make straight for a drug store and procure something that would bring required repose. The name given by this remarkable sufferer from insomnia, a cracked brain and disordered mind, was Edmund R. Lee, and he was being tried by a jury of six of his fellow men as to his mental condition. The county authorities had alleged that he was insane, and the actions of the man on the witness stand and his general demeanor ever since he has been a charge on Deputy Sheriff Dwyer for the last few weeks indicated that no mistake had been made in the allegations. Lee is, according to his own statements, 45 years of age, and was born in Michigan. He has resided in Aspen for the past three years, and during that time conducted a restaurant, sold sewing machines for the Singer company and claims to own an interest in a ranch on Wild Cat creek, but the latter claim is understood to be a myth as is more of his hallucinations concerning $130,000 which he says he has a half interest in, while the other half is held by a sister living in Kingston, Ontario, who he represents sends him $1,000 a week and more if his needs require a larger amount. These financial representations, however, were considerably shattered during the course of the investigation by the submitting of letters from the sister to the feeble minded man. She accused him of being worthless and a heavy drinker, and held his tippling inclinations responsible for his wreckage mentally, physically and financially. In this letter she contributed $5 for his temporary relief and forwarded a new jag cure receipt, which she hoped he would try. There was a postscript from the husband of the sister in which he took occasion to roast the imbecile without restraint, and told him he should be ashamed to live from the bounty and charity of the sister, who would not send him any more money. Throughout the letter admonished Lee to reform and rejoin his wife and family: It is untruthful, I have no wife and never had a family, he would interrupt in a loud tone of voice. Another reference was made to a daughter who had married a druggist in Omaha, to which the man said: There goes another falsehood. I never had a wife or a child, and when they say I had one in Omaha they lie. All attempts to make Lee acknowledge that he was ever married or had a wife proved fruitless, and he amused the spectators by asserting that he had been put in jail to exercise and nurse the lunatic Fitzgerald, who he described as a thief, brute and loafer. He charged Fitzgerald with stealing his tobacco, towels and handkerchiefs and last but not least the shoe strings from his shoes. From the graphic description furnished by Lee his life in jail has been an eventful and exciting one, it being charged that on one occasion he attempted to take his own life by swallowing a quantity of liniment. His life was spared only by prompt action upon the part of the jail attaches. The jury after a short deliberation adjudged Lee insane, and he was remanded back to jail by the court until such time as the authorities of the state asylum for the insane at Pueblo, where the patient will be sent, can be communicated with, as it is understood the institution is overcrowded. And must I go to the asylum, eagerly asked Lee when judgment was pronounced by Judge England. For a little while, kindly answered the judge. For how long? queried Lee. Until the doctors tell me that you are in a condition to be dismissed. Thank God, fervently responded the reason dethroned individual as he left the court room in charge of Deputy Sheriff Dwyer. |
| Lee, Edmund R. | Aspen Daily Leader 11-15-1892 Our Pitkin Insane Should Be Sent to Some Proper Institution County Commissioner Can Send Them to Eastern Asylums and the County Must Pay the Bill So Says Judge Rucker The sheriff's force is at present entertaining a large-sized kick against the further retention of the insane inmates of the county jail and the conservators of the law are vehement in their demand that the county commissioners do something to abate the intolerable nuisance resulting from the keeping of such persons in a place where no adequate provisions have been made for their care or treatment. There are at present two such unfortunates confined in the county jail, viz.: Charles Fitzgerald and E. R. Lee, and it would seem that the cause of humanity would be subserved by their removal to some asylum where could be found the necessary facilities for the proper treatment of the mentally afflicted. Certain it is that such facilities do not exist in the Pitkin county jail. When an inquest found as to the insanity of these two men and they were ordered committed to the asylum the county authorities were informed that the state asylum for the insane was overcrowded and that no more patients could be received. Thereupon the commissioners left the unfortunates in the care of the sheriff. Mr. Stewart and his deputies did the best they could with the means at their command, but they find it impossible to enforce the cleanliness so essential to the health and well being of the unfortunates. Judge Rucker is of the opinion that no necessity exists for the retention of these insane persons in the county jail as the law clearly authorizes the commissioners to send the insane of the county to any regular asylum for the insane. He claims that when the state asylum at Pueblo is unable to receive patients, the commissioners are fully justified in sending them to the nearest institution that is prepared to receive and care for them. Other counties so dispose of their insane and the sheriff's force is wondering why Pitkin county should be any exception to the rule. In justice to these two unfortunate men and to the sheriff the commissioners should arrange with some outside asylum for the care of Pitkin county's insane. In the light of Judge Rucker's opinion and the practice of other counties of the state, our commissioners should not hesitate because of consideration of economy. We are satisfied that there is not a citizen of Pitkin county who will grumble at the expense incurred should the commissioners do what they are clearly entitled to do under the law, send the insane persons now in the county jail to an institution for the treatment of the insane in some neighboring state. |
| Lee, Edmund R. | 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. |
| Lee, Edmund R. | 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. |
| Lee, Edmund R. | 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. |

As soon as she got off the train at the Union Depot she imagined she was proprietress of the establishment and proceeded to help herself to the articles displayed at the news stand. The police surgeon was telephoned for and the woman was taken to the matron's department. Here she broke a large pane of glass in the door leading from her cell to the corridor, and it was then necessary to confine her to the female ward of the jail. |

| Lemen, Lewis E. | In April, 1893, Dr. Lewis E. Lemen was appointed health commissioner of Denver by Mayor Van Horn. In 1889 be was appointed a commissioner of the Colorado Insane Asylum, and was president of the board until 1895. With the various medical associations he holds membership, national, state, and city and county, of which last he was president for some time. His contributions to medical journals have made his name a familiar one to the profession throughout the country. He has been especially successful in surgery, in which department his skill is universally recognized, and his articles upon any branch of that subject are always accepted as authority. In fraternal relations he is a Knight Templar and has taken the thirty-second degree in Masonry. In politics he adheres to the principles of that body known as the silver Republicans. The demands of his profession have been such that he has had no time, had he possessed the inclination, to enter the political arena. The positions he has held have been those that were directly connected with his profession or with the educational interests of his community. May 5, 1875, Dr. Lemen married Miss Lizzie, daughter of Hon. Henry T. Mudd, of St. Louis, Mo. She died in Georgetown, Colo., in 1876. His second marriage, April 12, 1882, united him with Elsie, daughter of Hon. William H. James, of the Omaha and Grant Smelting Company. Three children have been born of their union, of whom two are living, Margaret Lemen and Lewis James Lemen. |

| Lewis, John | Aspen Weekly Times 3-25-1905 Attempted Suicide Denver, March 23. John Lewis, a patient at the St. Elizabeth insane asylum, attempted suicide by thrusting his body into the blazing furnace of the building. The engineer of the plant discovered two human feet sticking out of the doors of the furnace and dragged the body out. Lewis, in his frenzy, caught the engineer and wanted to get back into the furnace. During the scuffle several pieces of burned flesh dropped off the body of the would-be suicide. He was finally subdued and taken to the hospital ward to be treated. |

| Lindsay, George | Cripple Creek Morning Times 1-21-1899 Burned His Money George Lindsay, age 42 years, was locked up in the city jail yesterday by Chief of Police McDaniel. Lindsay had been rooming at the Rialto house at 817 Bennett avenue. Yesterday morning he had a strong hallucination. Taking a wallet from his pocket, which contained $22, he threw it into the fire. Fifteen of the money was paper, and the remainder was silver. He then ran frantically about the house and Mrs. Bennett, the owner, notified Chief of Police McDaniel, who took him to the city jail. Dr. Cunningham visited Lindsay yesterday afternoon and pronounced the man insane. He will be taken to Colorado Springs to-day. Lindsay is a mining man, and came to Cripple Creek a short time ago from Ouray, where he has a brother, James, who has been wired. |

| Link, George | Boulder Daily Camera 12-31-1894 - George Link, who was adjudged insane last Saturday, has been raving terribly in his cell at the county jail ever since, and has scarcely slept, Sheriff Dyer was in hopes to have taken him to the asylum at once, but Dr. Thombs, the superintendent of the insane asylum at Pueblo writes that he will not have room for him for a few days yet. |
| Link, George | Boulder Daily Camera 12-29-1894 George Link Insane The Well Known Butcher Brought Over from Louisville. George Link, former night watch of Boulder, was brought over from Louisville this morning and placed in the county jail for insanity. George was confined at the state insane asylum several years ago, but recovered, and has been engaged as a butcher by Autrey & Co., and lately his son opened a shop at Louisville. At all times his mental processes have been irregular, but at last he has broken out a raving maniac, with a penchant for talking religion and the hallucination that he is above the pope. When called before Judge Wright today Link waved his arms frantically and talked very incoherently. I'm Holy George, he yelled. These mines will be running; Cleveland has but a short time now, then I'll come in and all will be right again by the grace of God. His examination came off today. Mrs. Link has occupied her own house on Walnut street ever since her husband's attack and is a daughter of Mr. Weiskopf. They have several children. |

| Littig, Earl Eugene | Obituary |
| Little, C.W. | Eagle County Blade 6-20-1901 Jumped From a Moving Train. From the Salida Record. Conductor Evans and crew had a rather exciting experience a few days ago with a man who jumped from a window in the train while they were running at full speed. The man who made the leap is C. W. Little, a brother of Auditor Little of the Oregon Short Line road. He was traveling from Salt Lake City to Omaha. He had a sleeper berth but was riding in one of the day coaches. At Tennessee Pass he was overcome by what seemed to be an epileptic fit and was attended by a physician who happened to be on board. He soon became quiet and the excitement subsided. When the train was near Riverside and running at full speed he suddenly jumped from the car window. Of course everybody supposed he was killed. Conductor Evans was in the front part of the train and did not learn of the incident until the train had run about five miles. He wired to Riverside instructing a freight crew that was following to secure the body and bring it to Salida. When the freight reached Riverside the crew was notified of the incident and was about to proceed to find the corpse when a man, considerably bruised and with torn clothes, came up to the caboose and made himself known as the man who had jumped from the window. How it was that he was not instantly killed by his leap is a mystery that will never be explained. Little begged the men not to report the affair but of course that was impossible as the incident was wired to the Denver papers the whole state soon knew about it. He was brought to the Rio Grande hospital here and later taken to the insane asylum at Pueblo. His brother was promptly notified as to what had occurred. |

| Love, Joe | Leadville Daily and Evening Chronicle 7-12-1888 Adjudged Insane. Joe Love, who was arrested on Tuesday by under Sheriff Loomis was adjudged insane in the county court yesterday morning, the jury recommending that he be sent to the Pueblo insane asylum. The crowded condition of the Pueblo asylum, however, makes this impossible at present. A Frenchman named Laquerre, who is now confined in the county jail, was also adjudged insane last week, but could not be sent to Pueblo for the same reason. The two Lake county candidates for admission will therefore, have to remain in the county jail here, until a vacancy occurs. |
| Love, Jonas | Durango Democrat 4-20-1900 Gabe Love and J. W. Bowlin came down from Rockwood yesterday against Jonas Love, rather of one of the informants, as to cruelty against family. Mr. Love has a cancer that is eating into the brain and is necessarily an insane quantity. |
| Love, Jonas | Durango Democrat 4-20-1900 A complaint was filed yesterday setting forth that Jonas Love of Rockwood was of unsound mind. Sheriff McCartney served the papers returning with the unfortunate late this afternoon. Mr. Love has lived beyond the ordinary allotment, being past 82 years of age, and if his mind be now unbalanced he is entitled to every consideration and all that human kindness can bestow. He will be brought before the county court at 10 o'clock this morning. |
| Love, Jonas | Durango Democrat 1-14-1902 Mr. Love of Rockwood was adjudged insane yesterday. He is quite old beyond eighty. |

| Lowe, Jack | August 7, 1897 Glenwood Post and Weekly Ledger (Glenwood Springs, Garfield County) JACK LOWE INSANE Jack Lowe, who has been driving the stage for several years between Rifle and Meeker, became suddenly and violently insane Tuesday and was brought before the county court with insanity charges preferred against him. A jury of six was impaneled and after hearing the evidence in the trial rendered a verdict accordingly. Judge Noonan committed the unfortunate fellow to the care of the sheriff and took the matter under consideration. The insane asylum is now crowded and the court just does not know what to do in the premises. Sending the man over to Pueblo would put quite an expense on the county for he would be sent back immediately. Sheriff Ware has put his charge in the cell especially prepared for such cases and while it is the best that can be prepared under the circumstances, still it is no place for a man so alienated. |
| Lowe, Jack | Leadville Daily and Evening Chronicle 8-7-1897 Love Stole His Wife Away. Constable Thompson and Justice of the Peace Webster of Rifle brought in Jack Lowe, an insane patient from Rifle, Tuesday evening. Lowe has been driving the stage between Rifle and Meeker, and has always apparently, been rational. About the time the stage was to start for Meeker yesterday morning, Lowe came out of the barn, got on top of the stage and began to yell, giving forth some unearthly noises that drew the whole town in his direction. He was shouting and screaming at such a rate that the people concluded he had become distracted, and the two officers above mentioned took him in charge. They were compelled to lasso him and tie a rope about his body to prevent him doing damage to himself or the community, When they had him completely tied up he came to his senses and told his friends that he knew he was insane; that the cause of it was a love affair. He was put aboard a freight caboose and brought to Glenwood Springs, and during the trip up here he again became almost unmanageable. They did not have anything with which to tie him, but those present held him until they reached New Castle, where they procured the marshal's handcuffs to use on the hands of Lowe to prevent him doing harm to himself. When brought to this city he was perfectly rational, and when examined by Dr. Dean, the county physician, he gave his whole history, which the doctor refused to give the reporter. Mr. Lowe has been stage driver between Rifle and Meeker for some time, and no one noticed that he was going out of his head. This sudden affection surprises everybody who know him. His case was before the county court last night and a jury adjudging him insane, he was taken to the asylum this morning. It is thought his trouble is only temporary, and that he can be brought out all right. |
| Lowe, Toni | Telluride Daily Journal 9-2-1914 Condition Precarious. Sheriff Edward Hoffman is in receipt of a letter from Dr. Hubert Work, of the Woodcroft hospital for insane patients in Pueblo, announcing the serious illness of Toni Lowe who was adjudged insane in the county court here a short time since. Dr. Work informs Sheriff Hoffman that Lowe is suffering from an organic disease of the brain and that his physical condition has materially weakened in the past few days. If an improvement cannot be soon brought about Lowe will not long survive. It is greatly desired that any relatives which Lowe may have communicate immediately with Dr. Work in Pueblo. |
| Lowe, Toni | Telluride Daily Journal 8-14-1914 Mental Incompetent Brought In Deputy Sheriff E. G. Galloway, and County Physician Dr. M. M. Blair arrived here about 2 o'clock this afternoon from their homes in Norwood in the former's Case car with Toni Lowe in custody. The latter is suffering from mental aberration as a result of being injured in a runaway at Norwood several months since. It is a question at this time whether or not he belongs in Ouray county, and Deputy District Attorney E. B. Adams took the matter up with the Ouray officials late this afternoon. However the opinion prevails that the insane man will be tried in the county court here. |
| Lowe, Toni | Telluride Daily Journal 8-15-1914 Motored to Norwood Deputy Sheriff E. G. Galloway and Dr. M. M. Blair, county physician and health officer who motored up yesterday afternoon with Toni Lowe in custody, left this insane prisoner with Sheriff Hoffman and departed on the return trip home this morning. |
| Lowe, Toni | Telluride Daily Journal 8-17-1914 Convicted of Insanity The trial of Toni Lowe of Norwood, on a charge of insanity was heard this afternoon before Judge M. L. Brown in the county court. Evidence was adduced from Doctors Blair, Klotz and Austin R. Kracaw, and Deputy Sheriff E. G. Galloway. After completing taking the evidence from the witnesses, Judge Brown ordered Lowe committed to the insane asylum in Pueblo. Sheriff Hoffman will leave in the morning with his insane prisoner for Pueblo, where the latter will be handed over to the warden of the state asylum. |
| Lowe, Toni | Telluride Daily Journal 8-18-1914 Bound for Pueblo Sheriff Edward Hoffman, with Toni Lowe in custody, left this morning enroute to Pueblo, where the latter, who was convicted of insanity in the county court here yesterday, will be turned over to the authorities of the state insane asylum. Sheriff Hoffman before departing said he expected to return here by the end of the week. |
| Lowe, Toni | Telluride Daily Journal 8-18-1914 Returned to Lower Country E. G. Galloway and Dr. M. M. Blair, who were called here yesterday as witnesses in the Toni Lowe insanity hearing, left yesterday afternoon on the return trip home, motoring back in the Galloway big Case machine |
| Lowe, Toni | Telluride Daily Journal 8-21-1914 Returned Home Sheriff Edward Hoffman returned home last night from Pueblo to which point he went Tuesday morning last with Toni Lowe in custody.
