Shortly after going out there he was
taken sick, the climate being TOO severe
for him, and he was reduced to penury.
He and his family were reported in dire

SANDERS INSANITY CASE.
Sharp Legal Contest Going on at
Dublin in the Matter.

Ine MatIeF.
Dublin, Ga, March IA legal battle
is in progress here for the possession of
the person of James L. Sanders Some
days since the sanity of Sanders was in
quired into by Ordinary Fordham, who
ordered him sent TO the asylum, he ad-
judging him insane. This was pleasing TO
the wife of Sanders, who is afraid of him,
but was not relished by S. A.Sanders and
the other relatives of the man.
There was no room for Sanders at the
state sautarium and he was placed in
charge of s. A. Sanders for safe keeping
Yesterday notice was received from Supt.
Powell that there was now room for the
man and Sheriff Hicks took charge of
Sanders again and was preparing to take
him to Milledgeville. He was stopped,
however, by a writ of habeas corpus, made
returnable next Saturday, before Judge
John s. Adams of the City Court. The
writ recites that Sanders has never been
insane, but that if so he has entirely re-
covered and is now being wrongfully de-
prived of his liberty.
The case will be bitterly contested by
the city. The meeting was presided over
by Vice President D. M. Hughes. Very
little business other than the election of
officers was transacted. The old board
was reelected in its entirety, which IN
turn reelected the both sides and the out
come will be watched with much interest
by the people of this county.
