work Of the visitors was too much for
Fredericksburg.

lack Grim s Mind
Gone, Out of Game
For Rest of Days

LYNCHBURG. VA, Jan 10. ].
Grim. who for many years was onS
of the best known minor league base
ball men In the country, and who WaA
confined nearly a year ago In this
Southwestern State hospital at
Marion, is now regarded there AZ
hopeless, and the belief LIS expressed
that, unless something very unusual
and unexpected occurs. Grim Will
spend the remainder OF his days in
that Institution.
Grims troubles date back several
years. for after he took charge OF
the Petersburg ball team. when 1t
was transferred from Portsm outh in
1910, he had 10 relinouish the team
that fail. and the next eighteen
months were spent in q private sana-
forum near his home in Cincinnati.
He recovered his health and came
back to Virginia, taking charge OF
the Newport News team in 1912.
Hero he met reverses. and, after
losing several thousand dollars, quilt.
From that time his mind began to
give away, until about a year ago Il
was declared necessary to place him
10 Jail to prevent him doing violence
to his wife and her mother. A COM
mission OF lunacy found him insane,
and he was removed to Marion. Since
that time he has failed to respond to
treatment, and the hospital physicians
are at a loss to ascertain either the
cause or the character OF his tror-
BILE.
Grim has taken on much flesh, and
physically he is we'll but It seems
now that he can never again be Hb-
Grated. He Is so violent that Il II
necessary to watch him continually.
It Is said He spends most OF his
time writing letters relative 70 the
operation OF baseball team, being
under the impression that these arc
sent out for him by his attendants.
Grim was one of the original pro-
motors OF the present Virginia league.
and in two seasons and a half made
about $4,000 off the Lynchburg fran
cnise. He was one OF the organizers
or the South Atlantic league and the
Union Association, and of the oitf F.r--
s'na- Carolina league. from which the
present North Carolina league came.

Much OF the success OF the team
was due to the splendid coaching they

In perfect condition. but also taught
several men to play the game that

fore With the light material that
he had to start with there was only
