Loneliness Drove Him Insane.

In the eighties an Englishman
named Gambler lived alone on a small
islet of the Ladrone group, in the Pa
ciic, for nearly a ear and a half.
Gambler was an avowed misanthropist,
and threatened to shoot anyone who
invaded his domain. For sixteen
months he flourished upon the fruits
and herbs grown upon the islet. Then
he suddenly went mad. The skipper
of the American trading bark Louisa,
when six miles to the west of the isl.
and, observed him through a spy

AMI landed him at Manila. When
Csndler recovered he insisted on re.
turning to his islet. He left San Fran

heard of.
