 In Sorry Plight

Jacob Hoffman, native of Switzer- land and known to the authorities as the "o1d hermit of the North End" again caused a run for the emergency hospital ambulance corps this morn ing when a report came in concerning man lying in a field north of St. Vincent's hospital. Suffering from ex- posture and in a pitiful condition, Hoff- man was found by Dr. John J. Mac Donald and fears are expressed for his recovery. He was transferred to the hospital.
 He had little to say concerning his presence there sbut asked for a cup of hot water and intimated that he had been lying there all night. On account of his lack of teeth, he finds it difficult to get proper food and, during the summer, has been existing principally on berries. But a com paratively short time ago, he was found in that neighborhood living in hut built by him from old fence rails and other refuse lumber. At that time he was taken to St. Vim cents, recovered and allowed to re- turn to his old life
 He gives his occupation as a labor CT and his age as 65 years. From time to time he has been discovered roaming around that locality and has been known as a man of mystery.
