Oakland Office San Francisco Call

sos Broadway, Sept. 2
 Mrs. Day and her daughter Daisy were brought to the Receiving Hospital this afternoon and charged with being in- sane. For some time the condition of these two ladies has gradually become worse, and the members of St. Johns Episcopal Church decided that it would be necessary for them to be officially cared for.
 Mrs. Day is about 40 years of age and her daughter Daisy is IS. They are both suffering from hysteria and excessive re- ligious excitement. For several days they have rapidly grown worse, although their attacks are intermittent. It is thought that the daughter is suffering as much from sympathy with her mother as from actual insanity. When taken to the Re. ceiving Hospital by Rev. Floyd Mynard, rector of the church. they protested against being kept in a room and made all kinds of pleas not to be separated They then commenced to implore, the ma tron and the warden to accept salvation before 1t was too late.
 ? The case is very pftiful Mother and daughter are ardently attached to each other and can talk for spells quite ra- tionally and then they will suddenly be- come hysterical and cry or sing and pray with much emotion.
 St. Johns congregation has been look ing after Mrs. and Miss Day for some
  Blake at 562 Eleventh street. More re- gently they moved to another house and the landlady was not aware that they were victims of a mania until last night Complaint was then made to the rector and he informed the police, but as the ladies were quiet nothing was done This morning they again became hysterical and Rev. F. Mynard decided to have them examined and cared for. They will be examined tomorrow morning.
