rested on the charge of bastardy at the
instance Of Miss Retha De Steffany.
The latter'S own testimony showedth that
before she made the complaint and be-
fore the child was born, she
had accepted a stipulated sum
of money from defendant in full
settlement of all her claims against

proceedings in court. The court, how
ever, indicated that if an illegitimate
child is a charge upon the public, the
county commissioners may bring a civil
action to compel the father to support
it, though the judge did not decide as
to whether or not Gatzky was the father
of the particular child in question.
