White, nearly four years old, there
promises to he warm fight made by
r. ], White, OF Carrsville, grand
father of the child, and d. N. Bar
nett, of Lone Oak. with whom the
child has lived since the death of its
mother. The child was brought to-
the city this afternoon. and in Magis-
trate c. w. Emery's court he was
given to Mr.. Barnett.
X. J. White lives at Carrsville. He
says his son, James White, was mar
ried and moved to Missouri. The
child. James, was born, and four
years ago his father was drowned in
a creek in Missouri. The mother,
with the child, came to Paducah.
where they were found Ill last year.
She and her son were taken care or
at the poor farm, but just before
Christmas the mother died. Mr.. Bar
nett is a prosperous farmer of Lone
Oak and he made a request for the
boy. He was given the child and the
child has had a good home.
About a month ago r. J. White
learned that the mother was dead,
and he began his search for his grand
son. Metropolis was visited, but he
got tip that the boy was in Padu-
cab. After a ceaseless search he was
located at the home of Mr.. Barnett.
Friday he visited the home. and
recognized his grandson Mrs. Bar
nett was willing to let White have
the boy. but Mr.. Barnett was not at
home Friday. Yesterday White made
several trips to Lone Oak and failed
to see the child. He later met Bar
nett, who refused to give the boy up.
Constable A. C. Shelton went out
to Lone Oak this morning without
official papers. and had a talk with
Mr.. Barnett, who consented to come
to the city this afternoon and hear
the evidence. Barnett says IL there
Is law by which he may keep the
lad he will do so. 1t is said that the
fight will wax warm. The boy is a
sturdy little chap. AID the Barnetts
have treated the chi< as their own.
