        M  P. WARNER DEAD
        
        Had Been in Holyoke since 1880 and Was
          Photographer of Note.
          
        MILON P. WARNER, 55, died at the Northampton
      insane asylum Saturday. MR. WARNER had been in
      failing health for the last six months and in
      June began to go to pieces very rapidly. He was
      taken to the Northampton isane asylum the first
      of the month. He was a victim of all sorts of
      hallucinations and was almost a daily visitor
      at the Holyoke police station with some new wild
      theory of persecution against his own person. 
      M. P. WARNER had lived off and on in Holyoke
      since 1880. He was a man of a brilliant turn
      of mind, but it had long ago become clouded
      with touches of insanity that crept out inter-
      mittently through all the years. He had been a
      patient at the Northampton insane asylum a num-
      ber of times in the past 20 years. He was a
      splendid photographer, his specialty being out-
      door work with the camera, his pictures being
      unusually clear and sharp, and especially 
      adapted for reproductions. He has taken some
      wonderful pictures of Holyoke, Mt. Tom, Mt.
      Holyoke, hundreds of scenes in this beautiful
      Connecticut valley and all over the country
      for that matter. MR. WARNER had his last head-
      quarters in the Ball building in the early 
      summer, but later had been living at North
      Amherst and North Hadley, where he has rela-
      tives and friends. MR. WARNER was born at Granby
      and is about the last of his family. 
        He was never married. He had been a great
      reader on scientific subjects. The funeral was
      held at the Granby Congregational church this
      afternoon with the burial there.
