The pathetic attempt of a. mother
lighting to keep her seven year old
daughter, while her husband strove to
have his mother appointed its guard-
lan, was made yesterday afternoon
Court.
Willi the case is pretty sev-
en year old Mary Johnson, of Fort
street. Her parents are Mr. and Mrs.
Arthur Johnson, of Franklin street.
Little Mary was turned over to her
grandmother when she was but six
months old by the mother who had
no means to' support her. Now the
grandmother desires to be appointed
the child’s guardian on the ground
that its mother is not capable and is
unsuitable and in view of the fact
that she has supported it for seven
years.
Several witnesses were heard yes-
terday and the case was decidedly
interesting. The first witness called
by the petitioner's attorney. Judge
John J. Widen was Arthur Johnson,
father of the child. He and his wife,
asserted Johnson, lived a “cat and
dog" life. and that he wanted his
mother appointed his child's guard
lsn because of the domestic quarrels
between himself and his wife.
Johnson, who is employed as a
plumber's helper. was subjected to a
severe cross-examination at the hands
|of his wife's attorney, John J. Cuneo.
“ls that your child?” Johnson was
asked by Lawyer Cuneo who pointed
to his flVe year old son. Johnson
shook his head “ves.”
“Haven't you any fatherly [feeling
at all for your My. "" shouted the law-
or, warmly
"i admit," answered
calmly "that he's my child. but i
dont know as i hate any feeling for
him."
"I'm through with you " said the
lawyer, throwing up both hands in a
gesture of despair.
Other witnesses board were Mrs.
Annie Perry of 76 Fort street, who
hits cared for little Mary for some
time while the grandmother, with
«thorn the child lites was away to
work. For this service Mrs. Perry
received 32 50 weekly.
Mrs. James Hartford,
street. has Mr. and Mrs. Johnsone
five year old son, whom she
boarded, without receiving money

of Tollcs
since 1909. Because of the lack of
support Mrs. Hanforu has declined
to give the boy up to his mother.
who on several occasions. has de-
manded him.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Thompson. of
First street. were witnesses. John-
son was employed as assnttant by
Mr. Thompson. who is engaged in the
plumbing business.
Mrs. Anna Johnson, the child’s
grandmother, who desires to be ap1
pointed its guardian, was also a wit-
nose
The case. was eitceedingly inter-st-
inr throughout. Attorney Cuneo
made Johnson admit that he was a
drinking man, and that he had not
contributed any money toward the
support of his children. it we:
brought out that JohnsonAs mother
had argued with his wife that the
best thing to do was to leave him. as
he was “worthless. "
The case was continued until next
Monday at 2 oclock p. m.
