Evans, brother to the insane man who startled our town so suddenly a few weeks ago, saying that he arrived home, in Hawkinsville, Ga., very much worn and jaded, and that his brother’s mind is about restored, but he is reduced in flesh until he is almost a skeleton and helpless as a child. His appetite is becoming natural and he is gaining in health and strength slowly, but he has a fearful sore on his arm. Our people will be pleased to hear of the unfortunate man’s restoration, as he had the full sympathy of all our citizens. Mr. Evans expresses many thanks to Sheriff Edmondson and others who so kindly cared for his brother in his sad condition.
