IUDGE GIVES IDIICE ON
1EEPING THEHOME INTftCT
lusband Brought Habeus Corpus
Proceedings to Gain Possession
of Children.
"A man must tell his wife three
lines a day that he loves her. I don't
lame a wife for not caring for her
usband when he will not stay home
t night. When children ar?\ brought
p without knowing the sanctity of
tie home they cannot make as patritlc
citizens as they would otherwise,
'he home Is the foundation of fhe
atlon; destroy the. homo and you detroy
the nation. .There are thousands
f women living with their husbands
or the sake of their children, and
uffering much at the hands of their
usbands."
This observation was made by
udge W. F. Harding in rendering a
eclsion in habeas corpus proceedings
esterday afternoon brought by Matom
F. Ferrell against his wife. Mary
illzabeth Ferrell, both of this county,
i which the husband sought to gain
ussfssion 01 tneir two children, a
oy of Ave and a girl three and a half
ears of age.
Evidence presented was to the effect
hat the mother was sent to the State
ospital at Morganton. After several
reeks at that institution she was re?ased.
Meanwhile her husband had
ept their two children at the home
f his mother. it appeared that the
usband and wife had quarreled freuently
prior to the wife's entrance
ito\ the hospital. She returned to
hi? county and went at once to her
usband's mother's home and got her
hildren. She took them to her own
uother's home and refused to give
hem up wheij her husband demandd.
It developed in the testimony
hut the wife had been led by rela.
Ivea to believe that her husband cared
othing for her.
Judge Harding spoke to the husand
and wife for fully 15 minutes. I
'here were tears in the eyes of a
umber of the small gathering in the |
ourtroom during the course of his
xlk. He found fault with both the j
usband und^dfe, and bade them live '
ogether fo^Hie sake of their chilren.
"I am not going to take children of
pnder age out of the arms of their
lother," said Judge Harding. ad- i
ressing himself to the husband. "You |
hould not expect tt." Continuing 'he .
xclaimed that because "your wife is
reak mentally and has been down
ito the shadow of the valley of death
he needs nurture and comfort and
>ve."
At the end of his talk the court orered
that the two children shalf live
rlth their mother for one month, and
?ith their father for one month, and
o on, ea"ch having possession of the
hildren during alternating months,
n making .this order, however, he
ieseeched the man and wife to live
ogether hereafter for the sake of
l.eir children and .home, if tor nothng
else. "If you didn't have these
wo children I wouldn't caTe whether
oil lived together or not. But for
he sake of them, and that they may
?e brought up aright, you should live
ogether peacefully and overlook each
ther's shortcomings and faults."
