be present at a habeas corpus hearing
bofore Judge Ellis seems to be the Is
sue just now In this remarkable con
tention for 'tiki ooetody of *wo Utile
girls. In which their father, brothers
nnd uncles are arrayed against their
aunt and uncle-ln-law.
The children are now In Washing'
ton, Ga., In a convent, whore they were
taken by their older brothers, Hugh
and Harold Avary, last Friday, Im
mediately following the sensational
fight In Broad street In which their
aunt, Mrs. A. 8. Crumpton; their un-
cle-ln-Iaw. A. 8. Crumpton, and their
uncles, Colonel Robert Lee Avary and
Dr. Arch Avary, took part.
Tho Crumptons state that they In

Atlanta In order that the question of
tho/r custody may bo finally settled
In court. Judge Ellis has already
granted a habeas corpus order, but
this has not been served.
Dr. M. B. Avary, the father of the
little girls, states that there Is no ques.
tton as to their rightful guardian. Hi
says that he has never willingly per
inltted Mrs. Crumpton to care foi
them. He sees no reuson why there
should be any contention.
Several Court Cases.
The first of the three trials Instl
rated by the Crumptons Is set for
o'clock Monday afternoon, when Hugh
and Harold Avary, tho twin brothers,
will appear In Justice Klngabery's
court to answer a charge of kidnap.

Charges of disorderly conduct have
been made against A. 8. Crumpton,
Dr. Arch Avary and Colonel Robert

Warrants have been Issued from
Judge Bloodwortb's court against Col
onel Robert Lee Avary and Dr. Arch
Avary chnrglng assault and battery. A.
8. Crumpton Is the prosecutor In this
case.
Both sides ore endeavoring to keep
their movement secret, but It Is unt
derstood that the Crumptons want the
Avarys to agree to a return of tho
children to Atlanta without their send
Ing u deputy sheriff for them. Dr. M.
B, Avary states that he understands
from the papers that the Crumptons
will have the two girls summoned to
Atlanta os witnesses In dne of tho

them served with the habeas corpus
proceedings. He says that hls chil

“Many lessonn are taught us by hla

the lesson of broad human sympathy
for and among all of oiir citizens of all
classes and creeds. No other president
has ever more deserved to have hls
life work characterised In Lincoln's
words as being carried on “with mal
ice toward none, with charity toward
all." As a boy, he worked hard with
hls hands; he entered the army as a
private soldier; he knew poverty; he
onrned hls own livelihood; and by hls
own exertions he finally rose to the po.
altton of a man of moderate means.
Not merely was he In personal touch
with fanner and town dweller, with
Bn Intimate understanding of each,
and, therefore, an Intimate sympathy
with each; and hls consistent effort
was to try to judge all by the same
standard nnd to treat all with the same
