It's photos like this that prove why I love the LOC photo stream! Type George Kimmel in the NY Times archive and you get lots of hits! Apparently, he was a petty criminal who was hit on the head & lost his memory. After regaining it, his family refused to recognize him. query.nytimes.com/search/query?frow=0&n=10&srcht=...

Probably where the impact occurred.

And then there was a whole trial about whether he was the real Kimmel or not. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9B00E0DF1F31E233A...

Probably the doctor who operated on George Kimmel. See NYT article, THINKS 'KIMMEL' ABNORMAL.; Surgeon Who Relieved Brain Presure Says Claimant Was Insane. October 22, 1912, Tuesday [http://query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9F03E0DC133CE633A25751C2A9669D946396D6CF] Photos of Kimmel are at: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2850363161/ www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2850362943/ As CaptainSlack suggests, search the NYT archive for George Kimmel to find out about this extraordinary case. Wilder is just a bit player.
