DR. G. H. WYNEKOOP
TAKEN TO MENARD
INSANE HOSPITAL

    Dr. Gilbert H. Wynekoop, brother-in-law of Dr. Alice Lindsay Wynekoop, and six other persons, all of them adjudged insane, left last evening for the Illinois Security hospital at Menard. They will reach the asylum today.
    Dr. Gilbert Wynekoop, at one time a prominent north side physician, was found insane by a jury in Judge Harry B. Miller's Criminal court after he was charged with attacking a nurse. He has been held at the jail for several weeks until room could be made for him at the overcrowded asylum.
