Collins friday nftt•rnoon, the woman and child were alone, the husband hatviu, left in the morning for Hen - eel', where be bad been working, and would be kept at work if he were sa inclined. Mrs. Williams was sit - tin; looking very dejected by the side of the bed, watching the lilt!: one sleeping. She had tried to get a dinner for 'the two of them with a few unpalatable looking potatoes and cold water drawn from the im- provised well, but iuforuttd us that the baby bad not eaten very much, and it really slid not look R. Ale though nearly n year and a half old it is not able to creep, althou;h it does not looked deformed in any way. It eagerly took a drink of milk which -had been taken along, and seemed to brighten up at the sight of strangers. The woman talked somewhat incoberrcutiy, but withal did not appear to be weak minded, al- though it would drive some women crazy if they had to live ns this wo- man bas for the past several years. For several weeks last winter the family subsisted on nothing but cook- ed turnips. The farmers in , the nei;bborhood have extended charity to them on many occasions, but as t he swamp has been the rendezvous for people of their stamp for years, they did not feel like encourn;ing a tetron; healthy man in his idleness. The woinan, they have not seen for some time and were not aware of her condition. The employer of Williams in Ilen- sell and his neighbors say he is a good worker when he feels so inclined, but when he gets a little money he buys provisions and lies around idle until they are used up and then starves himself and family until ha taken a notion to go to work again. He has tried on various occasions to .get another place to live in, but owing to their unsauitary mode of living, no one will allow them a house of any description. So desperate are their circum- stances, and the fact that the woman expects to give birth to a child any day, the authorities of flay were notified that something must be done at once to take care of the woman and little child and on Saturday Reeve Peter Lamont interested him- self to secure a location for them, Mr. .Mitchell, of Goderich was con- ferred with regarding the 17 months' old infant for the purpose of having it removed to sore institution. ,The family have since been taken care of and the husband bas secured work.
