MUST DIVORCED
FATHER SUPPORT
MINOR CHILD?

Court records produced by Assist
ant City Solicitor Lynn during the
hearing Of a charge of non-support
against Thomas Elliott, in City Court
today. showed that in June 1911
Elliott filed petition for divorce
from his wife, Mrs. Viola d. Elliott
charging desertion and q few months
later she had him arrested before
Magistrate Gluckman on charge OF
non-support of their minor child. The
records of the Court of General Ses-
sion show that Elliott was charged
with non-support of his wife and
children, and at that time he was
ordered to pay $S a month. He paid
the money until January of this year.
when a final decree of divorce was
granted Elliott, his wife not opposing
the suit.
After the records had been intro
duced today James Salisbury, at
torney for Elliott, claimed that there
must have been a mistake and he
asked that the case be dismissed.
Mr.. Salisbury claimed that Mrs. FL
liott was to be held liable for the
support of their child, she taking II
with her when she deserted her hus-
band.
The Court decided that the orders
of the Court of General Sessions were
made null by the recent act Of the
Legislature and that the right course
TO pursue Was to 80 into new hear
ing. This was done, and Mr. Sauls-
bury asked that Elliott be dismissed
as By his wife taking the child, When
she deserted him, she made herself
liable for the child's support. Mr.
Salisbury submitted decisions from
other courts to substantiate this con
tention.
Mr.. Lynn objected, and introduced
briefs contending that the father was
TO be held for the childs support
