The Weston Asylum Filed One Patient in 1911 Whose Intake Form Says 'Found at the Tree Line'

In 1911, the Western State Hospital in Weston, West Virginia, admitted a male patient whose intake form listed his prior occupation as practicing physician and his circumstances of discovery as four words that no admitting clerk ever explained. What a researcher found in Ledger Volume Fourteen three years ago, and in the county circuit court records two years before that, describes something that happened on a limestone ridge in Upshur County in 1906 - something that a trained physician went up to investigate and came back from changed in a way that the medical vocabulary of the period had no category for. This account comes from his own handwriting, and he was careful about what he chose to write down and what he chose not to.
