William W. Secord the old man who was picked up at Delhi Saturday and lodged in jail by the officers as he was not accountable for his actions, has now gone completely insane. At first his mind all ran to inventions and he desired to turn the Huron river into a canal, but now his mood has changed and he believes he has been divinely sent here to drive Wm. J. Bryan and his followers from the face of the earth. The poor old man will not wear clothing and eats but little as he says be will be better able to work against Bryan if he does not eat much. He will be taken to the asylum as soon as there is room for him there.
