constitutional, was brought up again a few
days since. Lizzies parents separated,
and in 1888, when she was eight years old,
sEe was adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Austin
of Benlon Harbor. Mrs. Lawrence after
ward married man named Roscnbach and
now resides in Chicago She attempted TO
regain possession of the child after her
marriage, and this led 10 the abduction pro-
Ceedings against her.
The Austins still refused TO surrender
the child to its mother. Notwithstanding
the recent decision, and the mother asked
70; a writ of habeas corpus TO compel them

Lizzie is now over II and could legally elect
her own guardian. When the justice CON
versed with her she decided that she pre-
ferred 20 go with her mother and the court
so ordered.
Then there was dramatic scene. Mrs.
Rosenbach, beaming with Joy, marched
over 10 the Austins ana taxing Lizzie
