MOTHER BEGINS FIGHT
TO RECOVER HER CHILD
Mrs. Mabel E. Lowe Says That
Brother-in-Law Spirited Away
Her Little Girl.

Proceedings in habeas corpus to secure
possession Of her three year old child,
Eona May Lowe, have been commenced
IN the District Supreme Court by Mrs.
Maoel E. Lowe. She charges that Ar
thur Lowe, a brother of her husba nd,
James P. Lowe, took the child from the
nome OF the parents of the petitioner in
Good Hope October 81. and 1t was not
until eleven days later that she located
the little one at the Washington City
Orphan Asylum.
MIS-. Lowe, through Attorney Robert
f. Mattingly. tells the court that her
husband deserted her about year ago
and that she returned. with her two chill
dren. to her parents home. She asserts
that Sunday morning, October 81, the
orother-in-law, in her absence, drove up
to the home of her parents In an auto
mobile, and after a short visit asked
to bid the children good bye When they
were brought to him, says the mother
he picked-up the younger child and, hur-
rying to the automobile, drove rapidly
away before the grandparents could in
terfere. Mrs. Lowe says she searched
vainly for ten days for her infant. but
on the eleventh day found her at the
asylum. She asks the court to require
the institution to surrender possession
Of the little one to her.
Justice Mccoy has set the matter be-
fore him for hearing November -.
