    3. Hi listers I have a newspaper article from the Argus from a helpful lister, taken from The Argus (Melbourne, Vic.:1848-1954) dated Friday 26 January 1977 regarding: 'A young man, of respectable appearance, who gave the name of George A Wistrand and stated that he was an engineer....' George A Wistrand was sent to the Kew Lunatic Asylum. I would like to know details of his records kept at the Kew Asylum and when he was let out of it. What was wrong with him according to the Asylum records etc. The particular record does not appear available at the moment for me to order online so wonder if anyone has access to these or copies of them - I am unfamiliar with them. Sincerely and with thanks, Rhonda Ferntorp for Diane P. Buscumb
