Supposed Evil-Speaking About Mem ber of Congregation Makes' Con science Kill Mind. STERLING. 111.. June 17. Prom a strong man physically and mentally to an inmate of an insane asylum, -wrecked both in mind and body, is the metamor phosis of a prominent minister of this city, through the hallucination that he had told a lie about a member of his congregation. Only a few weeks sufficed to transform him from a vigorous, aggres sive exponent of the gospel to a subject for legal inquiry. The Rev. Kzra Florry has for a. long time been the pastor of the Church of the .Brethren, better known as the Dunkard Church, in this city. Mr. Florry taught a literal interpretation of the Bible. No wore of his mouth admitted of doubt until a short time ago. His in timate friends were puzzled one day to hear him speak of injuring one of his devotees by speaking untruthfully of htm. Investigation showed that this only existed in imagination and they en deavored to remove the delusion, but to no purpose. From dwelling upon the sub ject among friends, the minister con tinued until he included all to. whom he talked in his self-denunciation. References to the subject began to creep into his sermons. Then he imagined himself pur sued by the person he thought he had wronged. His case was taken into the Probate Court and last night, after having been adjudged of unsound mind, he was taken to an asylum. Six Hundred Get Diplomas. PHILADELPHIA, June 17.
