LITTLE GIRLS ARE
RETURNED TO FATHER
By ORDER OF COURT

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE TO MORNING JOURNAL
Roswell, n. NJ. Oct. 29.-By an or
der of District Judge Sam G. Bratton,
william T.. Blanchard, state represen-
tatiVe from Lincoln county, and his
brother, Francis l.. Blanchard, were
deprived of the custody of the two lit
tie girls whom they had adopted fif-
teen months ago.
The Blanchard brothers learned Of
these girls through an advertisement
in the Kansas City star which was
to the effect that a home was wonted
Tor TWO girls. The Blanchard broth
ers responded and the girls were de-
livered to them in July 1913, at car
rizozo by q Mrs. Kaiser who at that
time told the Blanchards that the
father and mother of the children
were dead.
At the proper time the children
were legally adopted by the Blanch-
ards and since that time they have
lived at the Blanchard ranch in Linz
coin county and the Blanchard home
at East Grand Plains.
Three weeks ago Il. S. Wallace, Of
Fort Scott Kans., appeared and de-
manded the children on the ground
that he was their father and that he
had never given his consent to anyone
to put them in u home. The Blanch-
ards refused to turn over the chill
dren and a habeas corpus proceeding
was instituted by Wallace for their
custody
During the trial it developed that
the mother had been dead for mum
Der of years and Mrs. Kaiser sister
of Wallace, honestly believed the faith
er was dead when she turned the
children over to the Blanchards at
Carrizozo, as she had not heard from
him for two years and as he was very
sick the last time she had heard.
Judge Bratton ruled that it was
necessary for the father TO give his
consent before the children could go
| out of his possession and even though
| the adoption was entirely legal anc
regular and that the children had been
accorded kind and good treatment in
! the Blanchard home that they must
be returned TO the father
The Blanchard brothers testified
that they had grown to love the chill
dren as their own and had even gone
! so far us to make future preparations
| for them in their wills. The little
girls testified that they had been very
happy in the Blanchard home, but
since they now knew that their father
was alive that they would like TO go
| with him.

Romp, dunning ahead to try TO catch

The leaf led Thimble-Nimble a
merry dance. Like the willvo' the
wisp in the old song it leapt over
hill over dale through mud and mire.
A dozen more leaves joined in the race
and all whirled and dancer gyrated
and pranced so gayly in their yellow
autumn dresses that Thimble-Nimble,
completely at loss TO know which was
which, gave up the chase, He sank to
the ground and mopped his forehead
with the thistle-down kerchief that
adorned his neck. He was sitting there
beside the road saying over and over
to himself;
"Oh my oh my!" when Romp and
Ruff came frisking along.
ooh my! oh N.Y. lamented Thin
BILE Nimble. and, now that he had an
audience he assumed an even more
troubled look. "Oh, my, l can not

questioned Ruff. ITS fun enough just
to scamper after them, Little fellows
such as we cannot expect to run as
swiftly as the north wind. Just think
of all the practice he has had
"Oh it isn't that alone sighed
Thimble-Nimble, it's the awful sorrow

Romp glanced at Ruff and they
wondered at how ignorant poor

only said: And how do you purpose
