Event date: Jan 29, 1886
A man of about 35 years, named Gregory, who created a sensation in Crosby block last Friday by calling on Dr. Putnam and asking to have his head opened and the rust scraped-out, was examined by Drs. Conland and Webster, pronounced insane and committed to the asylum, showed rapid recovery from his bewildered state of mind, and yesterday was taken home by a brother.
