SEPTEMBER 27.1978 Probation Treatment Used * 'I ' By Court System Volunteers On a day in August, 1841, John Augustus, a shoemaker from Boston, Mass , attended a police court in the city and decided to stand bail for a man charged with being a common drunkard The court allowed this and the defendant was ordered to appear for sentence in three weeks When the defendant was brought back to court, he showed convincing signs of reform Consequently, instead of the usual punish ment imprisonment in the House of Corrections the judge ruled a fine of one cent and ordered the defendant to pay the court costs Thus, the first bold step was taken in using probation as a tool in the court system Subsequently, John August devoted himself nearly twenty years to probation work He looked upon his work with of­ fenders as a form of treatment He was a strong believer that many offenders required no more than the sincere interest of another human being to be able to straighten out their lives It is interesting to note that many of Augustus' ideas of reforming the offender are still prevalent in today's probation system !ff&ny of our modern resources-Halfway House. Foster Home Program. Job Services and Volunteer Programs would parallel with some of Augustus' treatment methods such as finding em ployment and shelter for of fenders and providing personal council with them Increasingly, volunteers are being used in the field of corrections, especially in probation The volunteers in Probation program for McHenry county began in 1972. patterned after a similar program in Royal Oaks, Mich . and Boulder, Colo "Currently, we have about twenty-five volunteers working with juvenile and adult of­ fenders, said Kalby Thomas, McHenry county Vtfiunteers in Probation coordinator "They provide friendship, com panionship and guidance They're someone the probationer can respect, trust, and model himself after "One of the qualities that really makes the program effective is that the offender is matched with a person whose only pay is the personal satisfaction of being able to help another person." added Craig Leigh. VIP Program director "We have volunteers from many different backgrounds- l a b o r e r s . s t u d e n t s , businessmen, and teacher Iveigh continued, "and they all share the same quality of caring and helping people overcome difficult periods in their lives Take Frnie. for example He is a local farmer who has been involved with a young man from the Woodstock area for the past two years I^ist summer he provided his case with a part time job on his farm and furnished him with transportation to and from the job This volunteer's dedication and interest in this individual helped to give him self con fidence and keep him out of trouble This is just one of the many services that the McHenry county VIP's have provided to cases involved with the court One of the main goals of McHenry county Volunteers in Probation is to match up a volunteer to work on a one-to- one basis with a juvenile or adult offender who has been plated under court supervision Some of the VIP's provide specialized service such as tutoring alcoholic counseling job placement, and court monitoring duties John I) was brought to the attention of the court after a series «.t violations that resulted trom his weakness for alcohol John was matched with a volunteer who had a drinking problem himself at A 1 HEARING AID REPAIR SERVICE Freeloaners Complete Service on all Makes Custom Earmolds JO Day Triol on New Aids HOME SERVICE FO* SHUT INS1 TRY BEFORE VOU BUV ' Maico Ottcon Radio tar Qualitone Audioton® Tel«*-Son© Ton* Custom MetfeAIHn Ear Models SERVICE CENTER NED'S 1:00 to 5:00 OTHER HOURS BY APPT.

The presentation in­ cluded transfer to the Historical library of the literary rights to all the Lincoln family's writings by the last person entitled to do so Beckwith, now 74. is the great-grandson of President Lincoln and the grandson of Robert Todd Lincoln-the only one of the president's four sons to live to maturity. Robert Lincoln died in 1926 and willed his father's papers to the Library of congress, provided that they remained sealed to public inspection for twenty- one years following his death. National attention focused on the opening of that collection in 1947. Today, all that remains of the Lincoln family manuscripts and personal effects not in public museums, libraries, or in the hands of private collectors has been placed without restriction in the Illinois State Historical libray In effect, the gift makes all that is left of the primary sources of Lincoln family history available to historians and Lincoln scholars throughout the world. Although time has not per­ mitted a thorough examination of the entire collection, several items of historical significance or artistic interest appear to attest to the value of the gift Of particular historic Im­ portance are the 'letterbooks of Robert Todd Lincoln Let­ terbooks were the means by which copies of outgoing correspondence were kept before the use of carbon paper The Robert Lincoln let - terbooks - forty-five in all- contain approximately 20.000 letters written by him between 1865. the year his feather was- assasinated. and 1926. the year of his own death Although his reputation as a man in his own right is historically well known. Robert Lincoln's letterbooks should give a fascinating insight into the mind of a capable lawyer and astute businessman As Abraham Lincoln's son however.
