Failure OF Expected Remittances
Made Him a Criminal.


New YoRK, May IA Syracuse, N. Y,
dispatch says that Dr. r. G. Goodwin, who
has been arrested in Cincinnati charged with
forging checks on various banks throughout
the country, one of which signed j. p.
Hickman had been honored at the State
Bank of Commerce of Hendersonville, n. c.,
has a local history OF romantic interest.
Goodwin excused his crirIe on the ground
that expected rem, tances from his
family in England having failed him
he was driven TO desperation.
The occasion of his neglect by his family, he
said, was his secret marriage two years ago
to Miss Babcock of Syracuse. Goodwin lived
in Syracuse short time previous TO his mar
riage, which, as matter OF fact was not to
Miss Babcock, but to Miss Amy Clifford,
niece of Johd N. Babcock, an insurance
agent. Miss Clifford was the daughter of
Harry Clifford. formerly Of this city, but now
of Chicago, and niece also of Miss Clifford,
the American sculptress residing in Rome.
Her marriage to Goodwin was a hasty
affair and followed close upon di-
vorce with former husband, with
whom she also elopcd. Goodwin had been
forbidden the house by the relatives of the
girl but he persuaded her TO marry him
clandestnely, he believing that she was an
hereSs. The ceremony was performed at
St. Pau's cathedral one morning by the
Rev. H. Fuller, the assistant rector. Good
win is man of good address and evidently
of respectable parentage. While mere ne
was in extreme impecunious circumstances,
but had knack OF making loans from
friends without exciting their suspicious.
After his marriage to Miss Clifford, he
boasted of having made an alliance
with leading family and at
tempted to trade on that fact. When
he left here with his wife it was with the
announced intention Of going to his estates IL
England, though letters were subsequently
received from him postmarked London. 1t is
believed he went directly to Richmond Va.
where he had previously sent letters from
London to be remaiIcd. Ne pretended to bt
and may have been a doctor, and essayed t.
| practice here. He was employed as cleri
In the Office of local manufacturing com
