Any chance someone out there can translate one or all of these articles? They concern a suicide by pistol of a man named Gustave. He was originally a John Doe but his body was later identified by his brother-in-law. Apparently he had been a patient at the Ward's Island Insane Asylum in NYC, was released as cured and killed himself the day of his release. His residence was 450 Columbus Ave.
I understand the basics of what the articles say but am sure I'm missing some of the finer details.
I'm especially interested in knowing what is said in the New Yorker Volkszeitung article about "1501 1. Ave" as this doesn't appear in the other articles.
These are all scanned from printouts I got from the NY Public Library in NYC. Amazing newspaper collection they have there!
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
