CAPTURES A DEMENTED NAN.
:. Armendt Taken Before Gregory
County Insanity Board.

Wheeler.-After having terrorized
the ranchers and their families in the
MILESTONE section OF Gregory county
several days, a demented man. whose
name is supposed to be Ferdinand
Armendt, was captured by a posse OF
ranchers and taken before the county
board OF insanity. 1t il probable he
will be sent To tie state hospital for
the insane at Iankton. When arrest
ed. and for several days prior while
roaming the countryside, he was in q
nude condition. Around his waist he
had fastened a rope, for what pur-
pose is unknown.
The unfortunate MAJ is about %
years Of age. During q semi-lucid in
terval he stated that his home was in
Russia; that his parents werc dead
and that he came to America and
stopped for a time With an uncle near
Peace River. Alberta, Canada. How
he came to be in South Dakota he is
unable to tell. From his rambling
talk it is presumed that he lost his
clothing while bathing in the Missouri
river. When asked where his clothes
were he stated they had all hoated
away like a boat"
He appears to have been deranged
over religion, as he continually during
his waking hours quotes scripture and
breaches to imaginary audiences. He
is highly educated. speaking English,
German and Russian ~fluently. He talks
ramblingly Of a ~moneybelt containing
nearly $50, and this is believed to have
been lost at the time he lost his cloth
ing.
At the time of being arrested he ap
| peared quite docile and was not hand
cuffed when turned over to Sheriff
Hertz, who went to the scene. He
talked about going home, and finally
stated that he was going home. With
the words he gave q bound and ran
ike a deer. The sheriff and others
rave chase. and it vas with difficulty
hat he was recaptured. Following his
attempt to escape he was handcuffed
constantly until he was safely lodged
III the county jail.
