PARIS. May 26.--Counsel for Cecil
Fl. Sargent, an Englishman. and his
American wife. formerly Miss Joseph
inc Savin Of New York. daughter OF a
banker, who were sentenced respective
ly to two years and thirteen months in
prison for mistreating children in their
custody. said today that Frank Savln.
Mrs. Sargents father, would furnish
the money 10 conduct an appeal OF the
case. If such were deemed advisable.
1t Is probable that an appeal will be
taken, though no decision has yet been
reached The lawyers are inclined to
think that Judge Flory of the Corree-
tional Court was rather lenient in his
sentence and fear a heavier punish
ment i'm case OF a retrial.
While a clear case Of mlstreating
the children adopted by them was made
out. the fact that the Sargents par
ticularly the husband. were under the
influence Of drink at the time OF the
acts complained Of caused the judge
TO be lenient toward them.
The Sargents were arrested last Feb
ruary. Mrs. Sargent, whose first mar.
riage was 10 a bogus nobleman has nc
children. though she confessed TO an
insane love for children. She was wei
provided for in money. by her father

The present Mrs Splicker is a pretty
blonde, slight of figure, who was very
popular in Northwest Baltimore. She,

opposite the home of Spilcker's first
wife.
SpilclSer is a huge fellow, standing

/ Because OF his bulk he is a noticeable
form in any gathering He conducts
a garage. and he and his automobile
have figured recently in several auto
mobile accidents, and he is no stranger
to the police courts of Baltimore be-
cause Of his propensity for violating
the speed laws.
