New York, 1895
When Jacob Kellar, a shoemaker of Greenport, went to New York recently, he was of sound mind. While walking along Forty-second street a beam from a building fell and struck him upon the head.
Monday night he suddenly became insane, and threatened to kill his wife and sister and John F. Bahr, in whose house he lives. The man was arrested by Officer Reeves as he was entering his home brandishing a large knife in the air. He will be removed to the state hospital.
—The Long Island Farmer, Jamaica, NY, May 24, 1895, p. 1.
