   ADAMS, J.:

The questions presented by this appeal are the propriety of habeas corpus to obtain custody of a minor child and the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the order appealed from.

It is the law beyond question that habeas corpus is a proper remedy in such cases. We find the evidence sufficient to sustain the judgment, hence the same is affirmed.

THOMAS, J., dissents.
