LIFE OF MANY TRIBULATIONS
Jonathan Jonei Declared Insane and Guar
dian Appointed for Him.
TWENTY YEARS UNDER MURDER SENTENCE
Has Foar Trials and as Many Convic
tions and Is Finally Pardoned
Without Harlna; Served Time
for a Hay.
The appointment yesterday of . Dr. James
Frazler as guardian of Jonathan Jones, an
Insane patient in St. Bernard's hospital,
adds another chapter to one of the most
remarkable cases in the history of Iowa.
Jonathan Jones, who Is now 61 years of age,
in 1S78 was convicted of the murder of a
neighbor, David Koberts, and for twenty
two years he lived with a penitentiary sen
tence hanging over his head. He was
finally adjudged insane and thus escaped
being sent to the penitentiary. In July, 1900,
Governor Shaw granted him a pardon and
In September of the same year Judge Macy
of the district court Issued an order de
claring him Insane and the guardianship of
Al Frazler was terminated. Al Frazler, the
then guardian, was lather of Dr. James
Frazler, the guardian appointed yesterday
on application of Frank, ft. Jones, son of
Jonathan Jones.
Jonathan Jones at the time of his arrest
for the murder of David Roberts was a
wealthy farmer living near Reel's postofrlco
In this county, but the expense of his sev
eral trials practically ruined him and today
he owns but a few acres of his once large
holdings.
Jones' first trial for the murder of Rob
erts was before Judge J. R. Reed of this
city, then presiding on the district bench
and now supreme Judge of the federal court
of private land claims. He was convicted,
but the case was taken to the supreme
court and the verdict set aside and a new
trial ordered. The next trial was hold In
Harrison county on a change of venue be
fore Judge Iewls and Jones was again con
victed. The case was again taken to the
supreme court and again -sent back for an
other trial. The third trial took place be
fore Judge Carson of this city, now a Jus
tice of the peace, and for the third time
Jones was convicted. For the third time
the case went to the supreme court, which
set. the verdict aside and ordered a new
trla.l The t fourth trial was held before
Judge Deemer of Red Oak, now Judge of
the supreme court, and Jones this time
was convicted of manslaughter. For the
fourth time the case was taken to the su
preme court, but this time the verdict was
sustained. This was In 1887, nine years
after Jones' arrest for the alleged crime.
Jones' attorney filed pleadings setting up
Jones' Insanity. This question was tried
to a Jury and Jones was declared Insane.
This was In 1891, or thirteen years after his
arrest. Jones being- thus declared Insane
was permitted to live unmolested on his
farm near Reels and in 1900 he was par
doned. Jones was placed In St. Bernard's hospital
September private; patient and the
appointment of a guardian .ta care for the
remnants of his once large property was
thus made necessary.

receiving word to this effect yesterday, at

opera house for that evening.

Involving the property of a wenk minded
man. Tunis Van Horn had been left weak
minded by illness and was partially deaf

gave him a good farm and later he mar
ried the daughter of the defendant In this
