Phil Weld came from doubly old New England stock: his mother's family were Saltonstalls. (Massachusetts governor, and later U.S. Senator, Leverett Saltonstall '14, LL.B. '17, LL.D. '42, was his mother's cousin.) Yet he was "not the normal, quiet, self-effacing Yankee," says his daughter Eloise (Weld) Hodges '62 ('82). "He was a volcanic presence. He had very strong opinions and was impatient with those who couldn't keep up with him, or with complacent people who didn't have the vision to see what was coming down the pike. My father was always 10 to 15 years ahead of the moment. When he blew up about something, he didn't burn bridges--he bombed them." http://www.harvard-magazine.com/issues/nd98/welds.html
Jennie Hodges, an Irish immigrant, was living and working in Illinois as Albert D.J. Cashier for several years before the war. She continued to disguise herself as Cashier when she joined the 95th Illinois Infantry Volunteers in August 1862. In June 1863 she became ill and was hospitalized but somehow managed to conceal her gender. Albert Cashier was honorably discharged in August 1865 after taking part in Grant's campaign in northern Mississippi including the siege of Vicksburg and raids in Tennessee. After the war Jennie returned to Illinois and continued her male identity. In the 1890's Albert Cashier received a veteran's pension and joined the Grand Army of the Republic. In 1911 Hodges broke her leg and her gender was discovered. She was admitted to the Soldiers and Sailors Home and in March 1913 the state of Illinois declared her insane largely because she had lived for more than 50 years as a man. The following year she was transferred to the Hospital for the Insane ! in Watertown where she was forced to wear women's clothing. When she died in October 1915, she was buried with full military honors wearing her soldier's uniform .http://www.gendergap.com/military/USmil3.htm

DEATH OF AN OLD RESIDENT Henry A. Schultz, Pioneer Resident of Colfax Passes Away Sunday. Last Sunday afternoon, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Minnie Willhite, occurred the death of Henry Anderson Schultz, at the advanced age of 80 years and 3 months. The funeral was held on Tuesday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Willhite, the services being in charge of Rev. U.Z. Gilmer and the remains were laid to rest in the Wiley cemetery by the side of his wife, who died about ten years ago. Henry A. Schultz was born in Adams county, Ohio, August 18, 1825. In 1850 he was married to Miss Olive Haines, and to this union were born seven children, four of whom preceded their parents in death. In 1854 he moved to McLean county, Ill., settling on a farm near Danvers. The family resided there until 1880; when they moved to Colfax. Mr. Schultz learned the blacksmithing trade, and after moving to Colfax worked at the trade steady until a little over a year ago, when old age compelled him to give up the work. He was a well preserved man for his age, as is attested by the fact that he followed his chosen work until nearly 80 years of age. the family were among the oldest residents of Colfax, and one of his deceased daughters was the second person to die in this town. Mr. Schultz was not a member of any church, although his wife was a member of the M.E. church. Old age began to tell on him, and he began to fail, and last Friday he was seized with a hemorrhage of the brain, which brought on unconsciousness and caused his death Sunday. Besides the three children, Mrs. Minnie Willhite and Dr. Charles E. Schultz of Colfax, and Mack H. Schultz of Bloomington, he leaves to mourn his loss two brothers, Ferdinand, of Colfax, and John S., of Lewis, Iowa, and three sisters living in Ohio. Those present from out of town at the funeral were Mrs. Mack Schultz and daughter, Mrs. Wm. O'Connor, and Mrssars. John Willhite, Frank Gillespie and T.S. Hodges, all of Bloomington. http://members.tripod.com/GenFamily/excerpts16.html
New County Home Built About 1895 it was thought best to build a new county home to supplant the old one which was crowded and not modern. The contract was let to Washington Vanator who had built the courthouse at Columbia City and many other buildings. The building went on all through the summer of 1896. John Nine and others hauled brick through town from the Wheeler brick yards to the poor farm. The writer has a small boy would ride out and back with Mr. Nine. He could make two trips a day. It is said that the late "Brick" Hodges learned his trade laying brick for the new poor house. Other bricklayers who helped were Hank Walters, Clyde and Fred Clark, Levi Zumbrun and Charley Hillegas. The building when completed was very pretty and showed up well from the distant road. Zeal Barringer was placed in charge of the furnace room. It was not long after the inmates had moved into their new and spacious quarters that a fire broke out, caused by some gasoline in the basement, and the building was destr! oyed except for the part occupied by the superintendent and his family. This fire, according to James B. Pfleiderer, was on Saturday afternoon in February, 1897. Some man who was driving a team to a farm wagon happened to be passing on the road. He on hitched his team, selected the fastest horse, mounted him and rode into Warsaw spreading the alarm. He caused quite a bit of excitement on South Buffalo street as he dashed across the railroad tracks crying that the poorhouse was burning up.http://freepages.history.rootsweb.com/~kosco/nye1850.html

One vivid example of Corbett's eccentricity took place on July 16, 1858. In order to avoid the temptation of prostitutes, Corbett took a pair of scissors and castrated himself. He then went to a prayer meeting and ate a full dinner. He took a walk. However, he eventually had to see a doctor. He ended up at the Massachusetts General Hospital and was treated by Dr. R.N. Hodges. The actual hospital http://members.aol.com/RVSNorton/Lincoln32.html
Soon after Dr. Stockton began her tenure at CSH, pathologist E.F. Hodges joined the staff in 1885. The hiring of Dr. Hodges set a series of events in motion that transformed CSH from a custodial facility into a treatment and research center. For the first time, CSH medical superintendents began to take a new interest in the systematic study of the physical causes of mental illness. http://www.state.in.us/icpr/webfile/csh_aiin/chs_add.html
