County and City

Albert Brown, one of the insane inmates of the county infirmary, died last Saturday. He had been there for several years. About three weeks ago he accidentally got too near the stove and was badly burned. The keepers tried their best to take good care of him, but in spite of them he would tear the clothes off himself in the night, and otherwise expose himself to cold, so that he took sick, got rapidly worse and died. He was about thirty years of age.
