District Soldier Under (iuanl in
Washington State.
Insanity has been added to the
afflictions of John R. Early, "the
leper of Washington," who was al
ready suffering from what is per
haps the most dreaded disease
known to medical science. The pub
lic health sen-ice received this an
nouncement yesterday form the gov
ernment quarantine station at
Diamond Point, in the State of
Washington, concerning the unfor
tunate man who was detained here
several years ago by the District
health authorities as a leper, and
who subsequently wandered, an out
cast, throughout the West.
Early has been acting strangely
for some time in the little camp
where he Is segregated with a small
group of other lepers, the report
slates, and has recently become vio
lent. It has been found necessary
to place him under strong guard.
Washingtonlans will recall Early's
case, much of which ran lt course
in this city, as in many ways sen
sational. About him and his afflic
tion was waged one of the most
stubborn medical and scientific dis
cussions of modern times. Author
ities of recognized prominence
throughout the world examined his
case u ml bitterly disagreed In regard
to It. At one time the District was
threatened with a suit by Early,
who had at that time beeu pro
nounced free from the malady for
which local authorities had detained
hnn nearly a year.
Early, who served as a regular in
the Spanish war, came to Washing
ton In 111 health August 14. 1908, to
make application for a pension
from the Federal government, thlnk-
n e thai he was suffering from some
sort of tropical fever contracted dur
ing service in Cuba or the Phlllp-
nes. On August 21 lie wa ar
rested under suspicion of being a
eDer. and soon afterwards was pro
nounced to be such by physicians.
He was placed under guard In a
tent on the banks of the Eastern
Branch, beyond the quarantine sta
tion, where he was later joined oy
his wife and baby. The unusual
conditions surrounding the case at
racted attention throughout the na
Hon.
The suspected leper was kept In
seclusion by the District authori
ties till July 4, 1909, when, through
the efforts of a New York physician
who had examined him and main'
tallied that he did not have leprosy.
he was removed to New York for
treatment. Here he was pronounc
ed to be su'fering from an ordinary
skin disease, and was later sal a to
be cured. He was sent out ofWaan
in if ton in a baKsaae car.
For a while Early lived in Brooa-
lvn. and later on a farm in Virginia.
Earlv In December. 1909. he was for
the second time arrested in vaBn
ington, and on December luth, was
aeuln sent from the District in
bauKane car. this time witn tne
warning not to return. He return
ed to New York, and was cared for
by the scientists.

At the close cf the war Colonel
Bennett returned to Wadesboro and
devoted himself to the practice cf
law and to politics. In both he was
very successful. He was solicitor
of Anson county in 1866 and 1867,
was a member of the legislature of
North Carolina in 1872. and a dele
gate to the constitutional conven
tion In 1875. In each body he serv
ed as chairman of the Judiciary com
mittee. He was elected judge of
the Superior Court In 1880. and
resigned to accept the Democratic
nomination as congressman at large
in 1882. After a hard campaign
he was elected, and two years later
he returned to congress as the
representative of the district In
which Anson was then. While In
congress he was a member of the
Judiciary committee, and the chair
man, John Randolph Tucker himself
famous lawyer, said his legal
knowledge was superior to thnt cf
any other member. It Is said that
at that lime he could have had the
nomination for governor, but declin
