There will be no hearing of habeas

from her former husband several days
ago by Chief of Police Dishman and

now speeding homeward to Gloucester,
Mass, and the prospects are that the
amicable agreement arranged for them
by their respective attorneys, M. g.

suit in their remarriage,
When Austin P. Young came to Los
Angeles from his Massachusetts nome
last week and attempted to take his
son from the custody of his divorced
wife, the police stepped in, and despite
the fact that Young exhibited an order
bearing the signature of an eastern
Judge restoring the child to him, the
boy, who is about years old, was
sent to the detention home and the
parents instructed to fight the matter
out in the courts.
This they proceeded to do, each in
stituting habeas corpus proceedings tne
hearing of which was set for IL O'CLOCK
today in Judge Davis department OF
the superior court.
In the meanwhile conferences were
held between the opposing attorneys
and then between the contend1ng talh-
er and mother, and an agreement was
reached whereby the parents promised
TO return together to their old home,
taking their son with them. Further
more, they agreed, If their one-ime
affection for each other could be re
yived they would marry at the END
of two years.

tanned in the agreement, the rather

Judge Bordwell responded to a tele-
phone message at a late hour Monday
night and when he reached his depart

the little family
