When the petition of Mrs. Bonita De-
clour asking that she be appointed guard-
ian of her husbands estate was called IN
the probate court yesterday 1t was touhu
that there was no opposition.
Belgian Consul Ponet and Mrs fanlue
DeMousset also coveted the appointment
~ Judge Rives desided that Mrs. De-
oIour was the proper one to take charge
If the nroperty, and she got the appoint
ment 5 ,.,ro
victor Declour was adjudged insane
several weeks ago and committed TO the
state hospital at Patton. His estate con-
sisted principally of two houses, one IN
Los Angeles and another In Alhampra'
which he owned jointly with Mrs De-
Mousset. His interest In the properties 10
valued at $500 or $500.
Because of his joint ownership and TO
nrotect everyone concerned the Belgian
consul thought he should have control
hut after hearing the testimony he was
satisfied to allow some other person TO
have charge.
From the evidence it appeared that De-
clour and his wife did not get along very
well at their home in Pasadena, ana IL
was openly charged in court that this as
cord at home was the cause OF the ola
man becoming insane. Mrs. Declour mas
a daughter by a former marriage VINO, II
,s said was the real bone of contention
between Declour and his wife.
One of the witnesses testified that once
in a family row the daughter had thrown
her stepfather on the floor and her mother
had helped her to thrash him. In the
melee the old mans arm had been bitten,
but whether by the girl or her mother
was not made clear, for both denied it.
Declour was in the habit of spending
most of the day in Los Angeles at the
home of Mrs. DeMousset, going TO MS
wife's home every night Mrs. Declour
was aware of his daily visits to Mrs. De-
Moussets home, but made no objection.
In deciding the guardianship petition
Judge Rives said that there was no doubt
that Mrs. Declour was entitled to the APP
pointment, and he fixed the bond at $500,
which she furnished. She is employed In
a Pasadena laundry.
