THE FREEPORT PRESS
Pub. Thurs. Feb. 9, 1882
Harrison Co., OH
ROBERT BERKSHIRE, prominent and respected farmer of Gilmore, Tuscarawas county, attended the protracted meetings at that place for several days. He became so interested on the subject of religion he could not talk of anything else.
He soon became hopelessly insane and has been adjudged insane by the Probate Judge and sent to the Columbus asylum.
He is aged 45 years and has several children. His friends deplore his sad fate.
