    3. Bloomington (Monroe County, Indiana) Telephone, October 3, 1893, p. 4. A form in human shape was saved from death last Saturday by Clark McLahlan and Mose St. Clair. He was on the railroad track in the north part of town, and was covered with mud and filth and was removed to a place of shelter, when Trustee Massy was notified. Mr. Massy found the poor wretch bereft of reason, and almost dead from exposure and for want of food. The probability is, from the unconnected story of the man, that he was sent here from Jackson county for our township to care for. He was sent to the poor asylum to be cleaned up and stimulated.
