Irving, Charles H.
Greeley Tribune 10-16-1902 - Charles H. Irving was tried in county court Monday evening and adjudged insane by a jury. Former Judge Smith was appointed guardian ad litem, and County Attorney Todd acted for the people. Tuesday morning Sheriff Elliott left for the state asylum at Pueblo with the unfortunate man. Charles H. Irving rented a farm from the Wyatt Bros., and with his wife and family resided there. He was a good farmer, a loving husband and an affectionate father, but an accident changed love to hatred and turned a peaceable citizen into a dangerous, irresponsible man. The latter part of summer, while assisting in setting up a haystacker, part of the implement gave way and he was thrown to the ground, striking his head and rendering him unconscious, a condition that lasted for many days. In time he recovered his physical health, but it was apparent that his mentality had been injured, though no fears existed till Friday night that he was or might prove dangerous to himself or others. Friday night he engaged in an altercation with his wife and threatened to kill her. The next morning he got out of bed at 2 o'clock, built a fire in the kitchen stove and went about the house as if it was the customary hour for beginning the day's work. To queries as to the cause of such early rising he became angry and began to abuse and beat his wife in a violent manner. After breakfast had been eaten he followed Mrs. Irving to the barn and again began to abuse and maltreat her. She fled to the house followed by the irate maniac, and as he passed a wood pile he saw an ax. Picking it up he threatened to kill her and the children. The latter interposed between father and mother and one of the girls ran to the Wyatt ranch for assistance. David C. Wyatt responded to the call and mounting a horse soon reached the Irving home, but all was quiet and Irving appeared to have gotten over his mania for killing. Mr. Wyatt realized that the man was not responsible and he had him taken to Eaton to be looked after and his mental condition to be investigated by the proper authorities. There the Woodman's lodge, to which Irving belongs, took him in charge, thinking that proper medical treatment might prove beneficial, but the case was too serious and he was handed over to the county authorities, with the result as stated. As an evidence of the extreme cunning often exhibited by insane people, the answer he gave, when asked where he was born, is to the point. He replied: “I can hardly tell; was too young at the time to remember.” He said that he was a resident of Weld county for four years, part of which time he had lived in Leadville, Fort Collins and Eaton. That the poor fellow is suffering from a fractured skull all doctors agree, but it is hoped that he may be cured under competent and scientific treatment.
