    Holman A. Drew, Sheriff of Coos County, New Hampshire. Source: openjurist.org/235/us/432/holman-drew-v-harry-kendall-thaw
  • Wystan said:
    LOC --- the title is defective: The abbreviation for "Deputy" needs a "y" added; otherwise the reader mistakes the word as "Department." Three "r's" belonged in the old one room schools -- not in the word "Sheriff."
  • Wystan said:
    In 1906, Harry K. Thaw pulled a gun, fired three shots, and murdered the noted architect Stanford White, in the roof garden atop New York City's old Madison Square Garden [which White had designed], in full public view of a partygoing crowd. He was found insane, and committed to the Mattewan State Hospital for the Insane, in Fishkill, New York. In 1913, Thaw escaped from Mattewan, and met a confederate who drove him north across the New Hampshire border into Coaticook, Quebec, where he spent several weeks. After extradition from Canada, he was held briefly in New Hampshire, pending his return to the custody of the State of New York. After another trial, in 1915 he was adjudged to have been restored to sanity, and set free. Thaw in New Hampshire -- a solo portrait:

    Richard Arthur Norton and Wystan: Thanks for your comments. We'll correct the title next time we update the description.

    This is at the dedication of the Carl Schurz monument on 11 May 1913 in New York City. New York Times story about the unveiling.

    Oddly, written on the negative is 3/5/20. Carnegie died in 1919!!
