had been tenderly reared and is pretty and
healthy. II the money was not forthcoming
Grady threatened he would take his son.

Aspinall Yesterday morning Grady got
the attention Of the Coburns and told them
that he had reduced his figure to 500 cash.
Mrs. Coburn was so afraid that she might
lose the boy after all that she partially
agreed to these terms.
The Judge got an mixing OF what was Ia

adoption papers preparatory to approving
them. He also noticed that Mrs. Coburn
was fumbling with roll of bills, He
asked

ever contribute to his support.
And you, out of the kindness OF your

Well. we'll see about that. You put that
money back in your pocket. You wiz

paper and there II be no payment OF money

Judge Aspinall learned from the boys
mother that she was willing to surrender
all legal right to him without money pay
ment, but that the father would not agree
with her She subsequently signed her
consent TO the adoption.
Il don't want to see that man at all: Let
him get out of here" exclaimed the Judge
