Wife and Baby in state of Collapse. With enough money buried in the cellar of their home to buy square. meals for a year, the wife and little. child of Fred Hodge, of GOrrie, were found on Saturday to be starving to death, and Hodge wee arrested by Officer Phippen and lodged in jail here ou a charge. of negligence and cruelty. Neighbors say that for a long time they have been carrying in provisions to the Hodge family, and it is claimed that of the food provided -the husband ate the greater part. On Saturday authorities at Goderich informed Of- ficer Phippen of the circumstances as far as were known, and he made a trip at once to Gorrie. .He found Mrs. Lodge and the youngest child in a state of collapse, which Dr. Wildfang, who accompanied him, said was due to starvation. Hodge, when confronted by the offi- cer with the charge of neglecting his family, took. Phippen down to the cellar, where be dug up a considerable sum of money in bills,. This, Mrs. Hodge explained, bas been her hus- band's way of keeping money for years, Whenever he got paid for his work as a laborer, she never caw any of it, and they had to depend on the charity .of -neighbors, There was scarcely $5 worth of furniture in the house and this, the woman said, had been given to her. On Monday Officer Phippen made a second visit to the house and a little digging in the cellar revealed more perfectly good' currency that might have been nsed to buy food. Hodge's hearing is fixed for Wednesday at 1 p. m. before Magistrate Merton' and Crown Attorney Seeger of Goderich, when Mrs. Hodge and others will test- ify against the man. Dr. Wildfang will also give evidence. Hodge is a man of about 35, with a strong tendency described by people who know'him as "religious," There are four children in the family, three of whom managed to retain a certain amount of health in spite of the irregu- larity of their meal time, It is said that Hodge served a term e,t Toronto some years ago for similar condudtt to that for which he is now in jail. Owing to the fact that Crown Attorney Seager was . unable to be present, Provincial Officer Phippen took charge of the case and handled it well, The prisoner was committed to stand trial at Goderich, and will be taken on first.train Thursday to Gode- rich jail. Three of the children are being turn. ed over to the Children's Aid Officer at Goderich, Blyth . Mr. S. Crawford of Kincardine, is renewing co acquaintances in this vicinity.
