F.L. Shinn Obituary, 1879
New Jersey Courier 26 Jun 1879: We regret to learn that the venerable Dr. F.L. Shinn of Mancheseter, who is now in his 88th year, has recently shown signs of mental aberration. On Friday afternoon of last week he wandered away from his home and when the fact became known a large party formed in the search for him, which was continued all through Friday night until nearly ten o'clock on Saturday night, when, through the barking of a little dog which had accompanied him in his wanderings, he was found in the woods near Sutts Mill, about four miles NW from Manchester. In his wanderings he head lost his coat and shoes and his feet were lacerated and what clothing he had was in tatters. He will probably be placed in the asylum for the insane in Trenton. Dr. Shinn practieced medicine in this town more than 40 years ago, and was highly respected by our citizens
