From unknown paper, unknown date

 

Ross Bailiff, the 19 year old son of Ed Bailiff and wife, was taken Monday to the asylum at Kankakee.  The following accompanied him as far as Marshall, Sam Buckner, Roe McCrory, Chalk Niday, and the father, mother and sister of the unfortunate young man.  A Marshall, Sheriff M. M. Heddrick took Ross in charge and left the same evening with him for his new home.

 

It is hoped that a speedy and permanent cure will be attainable and that Ross will soon be among us again.
