infant child on the morning OF Saturday.
September 18Th, has returned to her home
in that place, having been released from

No bill was found against her and she
remained in Ill. An Effort was made TO
release her on a witt Of habeas corpus but
tbs failed on technlcaliIies. Monday
she was brought into court with the
request that she be released from custody
THIS the court at first declined to do, as
it had no records to act on, but the court
finally suggested that Mrs. Goodwin
