Chauncey E.

Harvey W. Wood suffered an attack of acute indigestion yesterday afternoon and is now at the home of his son Van in Rensselaer under the care of the family physician. He came to town in the morning and was at work with the other viewers on a ditch report in the surveyor’s office in the court house when he became ill about three o’clock. He was later removed to the home of his son, where he passed a fairly restful night This afternoon, however, his condition is not so encouraging, a fever having set in. Gov. Marshall in speaking of the many young boys in the reform school at Plainfield said after his recent visit there: “There is too much love mixed up in this home life of ours now. I suppose I had 150 whippings when I was a boy, and if I had had 200 perhaps today I would have been respectable. It took only five minutes of material punishment to set me straight when I was a boy and I really should have had more of it The frequent use of the material suggestion, commonly known as the rod, would have saved many of these mere Infants from the need of state correctional mediums.”
