REPORTED HORRIBLE CRUELTY IN LUD.
| LOW find tho reported below, in
the Rutland Herald. 1t seems impossible
that such an unnatural mother could exist
even among the lowest heather in Hindo,
stan, and much less that the authorities OF
Ludlow would permit such an outage il
their jurisdiction, certainly not knowingly
We will believe, therefore, that it is an ex
aggeration, till we hear it confirmed The
following is the report, above mentioned
an the extreme southern part of Ludlow
near the corners of Andover and Chester
resides the family of Charles Robbins
himself, wife and three children. He is {
poor, but industrious man, and provide;
for his household as we'll as he can. These
people are yet young But it is of the
mother we would speak. Pr0fane, eros.
and unkind, she treats her children like
or worse than brutes. One of them espe
ciallv, the youngest, when she had bu
two actually breaking its arm by stamping
on the poor child as it lay on the floor, cry
ing at its neglected condition, and then i
crawled away and hid under the bed to es
cape its unnatural mother. Again, strip
ping all its clothes off, and dipping it il
the snowcOld brook, and washing its clOthe
in the same stream, and putting them OF
again undried and unwarmed. During tn
snow storm of Sunday, May 2, becoming en-
ragged, she threw it out by the door of tn
house, and the now deformed and helples
creature lay on the banking of the house
It'll, exhausted, it sank to sleep on tn
snowy ground, and was seen there by pas
sing neighbOr. The mother has beel
known to put her children on to the bed
shut the house, and go to the neighbors' an,
leave them alone for hours; they being 81
young as to fall off upon the floor, and, un
) able to get up, remain there and cry unit
some neighbOr came in and relieved them
Other acts of cruelty might be named, anC
still, this family lives so far from the knowl
edge of the civil authority of Ludlow, tina
they do not interfere to avert this cruelty
The neighbors talk about it, and wonde
why the father of these children don't d.
something to correct the evil. He is to
poor, too timid, and too easy, ignorant 0
! shiftless to protect his own offspring. S
this woman will go on in her own way, til
death shall relieve the suffering infant;
Who will prevent it""
