The Case OF Catherine McCarthy-suit to
Recover Custody or Child.
Before Judge Ingraham.
Some time ago writ OF habeas corpus was
issued ny Judge Ingraham 90 compel the Commits
sioners Of Charities and Correction to produce be-
fore the Court the body of Kate Smith, alias
Mccarthy q child OF about six or seven years. The
little girl 1t appeared had been given into the
custody of a MIR. and Mrs. smith, but had been re-
the Smiths sought to regain possession OF
the girl. TO the writ the commissioners made
return that though they had given the girl TO the
custody of the Smiths they had subsequently dis
covered that the Smiths had been engaged, as was
alleged. in keeping house OF prostitution; that
child, they took her away claiming the right so to
do.
TO this the Smiths replied that they were without
children OF their own and had taken this child to
bring up; that they were worth considerable prop
erty In which they intended the child should share
the bank; that, though they had kept house OF
irepute, they had given IL zap for the childs sake
and had gone to live elsewhere. Decision In the
case, which has now been rendered. was delayed
for the purpose OF taking testimony to the Cir
cumstances OF the claimant.
Judge Ingraham now directs that the child re-
main with the Commissioners. He finds from the
testimony taken that the parties occupied room
adjoining the house OF prostitution; that though
the child nominally lived in such room she had
been accustomed to 20 into the house adjoining
through connecting door when she wanted food
up their disreputabe business yet they had done so
recently and under circumstances leaving IL I'M
certain whether they had done so from motives OF
reformation.
