A striking illustration of this is the case of Martin Kallikak a young soldier in the Revolutionary War of English descent who while visiting at a tavern fre- quented by militia, met a feeble-minded girl and became the father of her illegitimate feeble-minded son. In 1912 there were 480 known direct descendants of this temporary union and it is known that 36 of these were illegitimate, 33 sexually immoral, 24 confirmed alco- holics, 8 kept houses of ill-fame, 143 were definitely known to be fee...ble-minded and many others were of questionable mentality. In marked contrast to this rec- ord is the following : A few years after returning from the war this same Martin Kallikak married a respectable girl of good family and from this union 496 individuals have been traced in direct descent and in this branch of the family there were no illegitimate children, no im- moral women and only one man sexually loose, no crim- inals, no keepers of houses of ill-fame and only two con- firmed alcoholics, not a single feeble-minded individual and most of them were either doctors, lawyers, judges, educators, traders or land-holders.
