– Anyone reading this article should not let the San Francisco publication confuse them. Magnolia and Chatawa are in Mississippi, roughly half way between Vicksburg and New Orleans. Given the time period and location, as well as the description of this unfortunately individual, the only conclusion I can come to is that this was a quite human victim of mental illness. Considering the immeditate history of slavery, war and violence of Reconstruction in the south, one can hardly be surprised at having a poor, unfortunate soul pushed to the breaking point.
– Please do not read into my comment any discouragement of investigation of historical “wildman” accounts. They may well prove to be key research sources. It’s just that this story sounds like a disturbed, psychotic human being. One hopes that someone of good heart and intentions was able to eventually assist him.
– Eric
