MAY 20, 1909 NUMBER 31 DEMENTED MAN PICKED UP Left Home and Roamed About Country Aimlessly Deputy Marshal Frank Tausch received a telephone message from Ed Marion on Friday morning at 10 o'clock that an apparently demented man was walking through the orchards on the Garden Grove road south west of town. Tausch procured an automobile and repaired to the scene, where he found William Paul, a Los Angeles man who had been missing since the preceding Monday, wandering about aimlessly. He was hatless and his clothing was torn. Evidently he was demented. "Get in the auto and I'll take you to Anaheim," said Tausch. "That's just the place where I want to go to," said Paul, "I am going to get a job in the ice machine." Paul was a Los Angeles ice man, and had lost his reason by falling from an ice wagon upon his head a year or more ago. He entered the machine, but after starting attempted to leap out of it, but was prevented from doing so by the officer. At the city jail he objected to entering, but was persuaded to go in and lie down.

Paul was a Los Angeles ice man and had lost his reason by falling from an ice wagon upon his head a year or more ago. He entered the machine, but after starting attempted to leap out of it, but was prevented from doing so by the officer. At the city jail he objected to entering, but was persuaded to go in and lie down. He had been at Bay City in his wanderings, having been seen in that neighborhood by residents on Thursday. Johnny Walls, who knew Paul in Los Angeles, seeing that his clothing was badly torn, purchased a new suit for him. Paul's relatives were telephoned to, and in the afternoon Nick Oswald, the redlighter, his brother-in-law, drove down in an auto, accompanied by his brother Frank Oswald and other relatives.
