CURED in court here to day which created
much excitement, and for a time a fight
seemed imminent. d. A. Black had pro-
cured "a writ Of habeas corpus to compel
the surrender OF his daughter, aged 6
years, who had been adopted in babyhood
by an aunt at the request OF the child's
dying mother. The case being decided
against Black he snatched the child from
its foster mothers arms and tried to make
off with it. The girl screamed and the
woman grappled with Black, and in an
instant dozen men had taken sides and
were gathered in an excited crowd around
the child. The Judges GOODNESS alone
prevented serious consequences, and
Black was sent to Jail for contempt of
court. The case has excited much inter-
est in the community.
