Miss Minnie Chinn - Declared Insane

Miss Minnie Chinn - Declared Insane
The Argus is pained to announce that Miss Minnie Chinn of Lovejoy, Ga., has been declared insane. She was sent to the State sanitarium at Milledgeville last week for treatment. The cause of her trouble is attributed to great mental strain in her school room and out of it. It will be remembered by our readers that Miss Chinn has brightened these columns with some genuinely good poetry. Many high compliments have been paid her verse creations and they deserve them all. Miss Chinn is a genius and we are sure that the readers of The Argus will join in the hope that the treatment she is undergoing will result in her restoration to health.

(Jackson Argus - Butts County - Week of March 10, 1899)
