An application for n writ ef habeas

by the attorneys for Opal seat ens. in
which she asks to he tanen from her
father and given to her grandfather
and grandmother. Opal Swnrens is a
little more than act en years eML Her
mother died when she was n year old
and she had been Bring with her
grandmother since that time at the
home of F. M. Swarens near Nicker
son, Kas. Her father recently mar-
neo. ana. on accownx oc axmenraen
which his- second wife had with his
father and mother, he has attempted
to break the cunUact by which his
daughter was given to his mother.
The father has taken the child and
refuses to let her see her grand
mother. On account of the fact that
the child has often said that she pre
ferred to live with her grandmother
the attorneys brought the habeas cor
pus proceedings to place the child in
the custody of the grandmother and
grandfather, instead of that of the
father and stepmother.
