FOUND THE PARENTS.
Trial of the Couple Who Abandoned
Their Infant.

Officer G. w. Neale arrested, yesterday
evening at the steamer wharf a man CIV
ing his name as Prof Leslie G. Sebree of
a charge of being the couple who left an
infant with Elizabeth Stewart, a colored
woman, at the Norfolk and Washington
wharf Saturday evening and failed to re-
turn for it.
In the Police Court today they explained
the abandonment on the ground that the
mother was weak, and was taken sick after
they reached hare, and they left the baby
with the colOred woman while they could
get place to stay. They had no intention
OF leaving the child for all time, however.
1t was developed in the evidence that
passed the Stewart woman's house, but
made no effort to see the child or to get il
back.
Justice Mills decided that Sebree was un-
doubtedly guilty. There was some doubt q g
to the legal responsibility attaching to Mrs
Sebree, inasmuch as the whole Transaction
was done with the husbands knowledge
and consent.
After consultation with Mr. MuIlowney-
the assistant District attorney the fudge
decided to let her go unpublished although
holding that they were both equally to
blame from a moral standpoint.
Debree was sentenced to thirty days In
Jail and to pay a fine of 800, with ninety
days additional in default of payment
The young couple left the dock, the wo-
man weeping and the man with his arm
about her waist 10 guide her unst aady steps
He was vehementiy protesting his inr,o-
cence ard seemed to be completely un-
rerved by the disgrace which had oyertaken
him.
