ing rescued from d well in the yard of
a house on Prince street, and she has

that she may get possession of the
child.
The writer of the letter sends along
a newspaper clipping from st. Louis
paper giving an account of the find
ing of the babe in the well September

A postscript to the letter reads as
follows:
If the mother says I can have it. put
it in big clothes basket and put milk
for it to nurse. and tag the basket for
Mrs. Haggard. Tell the conductor to
care for it as good as he can, and you
send me postal. and ] will meet the
dear little baby at the depot"
The writer explains that she will give
the child the best OF care. She says she
has been married five years and has no
children, and adds:
II have lots of nice milk for it. You
talk to the mother about this, Mr.. Mich
olson. I want to adopt little baby, SO
it will never know but what l am its
mother
The child referred to by Mrs. Haggard
has already been adopted by family in
this city and is now being cared for by
it's foster mother. This informa ion will
doubtless be sent Mrs. HaSgard.
