JACOB DUNLOP, a colored lunatic,
who has been confined in the county
Jail here for five years, was carried
to Nashville recently and an effort
made to get him in the asylum in
that city This could not be done
and he was brought back TO his old
quarters i'm the Jail. The cause OF
Jacobs malady is that he believes
himself a great preacher. 1t is
thought by some that if all persons
who labor under a similar halucina-
ton were treated as Jacob is, there
would be more need for jails and
asylums.
