Little Jack de Saulles returned to his
mother yesterday. The merry faced.

de Saulles killed her divorced husband.
ran into her house at Roslyn and into
her arms In the afternoon little later
as she held him 10 her she said that her
happiness was complete. Now she wants
only to rest and forget.
There is small chance that her pos
session Of the boy will be contested. for
a while at least Henry Uterhart, her
attorney. called up George Gordon Bat
tie, counsel for the de Saulles family in
the morning and asked that the boy be
turned over to his mother. He was re-
questcd to telephone later in the
day, as a family conference was then
going on to decide what their attitude
should be- They resolved to give him up
in view Of the acquittal. and SO about
4. o'clock little Jack reached tho Cross
ways, and trotted up to his mother.
"I am so glad to be back. Bumby." he
said to her ~ would rather be with

than twice that" he said. and good
hug from his pud9y arms completed his
words.
When Mrs. de Saulles was seen lit
tie later she was seated on crctonne
covered divan in the living room OF her

hind bars. and she was glad. And there
was little Jack.
"Where is he? Jack" she called.
"Is ne here" she was asked.
"Oh, yes," she said with a smile. and

the next room. He had on a sailor suit
with q carnation pinned to the front OF
II. and WAS wearing q DIB Kit SHeT'U
badge, which Sheriff Seaman had given
70 him on one Of his visits to his mother
at the Mineola jail. He climbed up be-
side her happily. bubbling over with
shrewd comments on what he had seen
and been told. and during the rest of the
interview wandered excitedly about the
room talking to every ono who asked

himself hugely. His mother watched
him In a rather anxious. tired way at
times.
