lie Kentzler claimed, and grounded her pc
tltion upon that claim, to nave obtained a
decree of divorce from said Joseph Kentz-
Ter, in the courts Of Montana, at Helena,
on the 9th day Of December, 1885, and that
by said decree the custody Of the children
OF the marriage had been awarded to her,

mapped and carried away two of the chill
dren.
