TAKEN BY THEIR. FATHER.
Thompson Children Ate to Go to New
York with Him.
A pathetic tecno was witnessed In the
ofllcc of tho Hoard of Assqclated Char
ities yesterday afternoon, when James
Thompson, of Now York city, mot his
two little children, who wore recently
taken from their aunt and uncle, Mr.
and Mrs. Jacob Klofer, because of the
cruel treatment of tho latter.
Mr. Thompson was separated from
his wlfo at tho time of Her death last
spring, and tho children, Floreitco nged
14 years, and George, aged 9 years,, were
taken charge of by their aunt nnd'
uncle. When tho latter were arrested
at tho Instance of Mrs. Duggan, -tho
children were taken from them and
wero placed temporarily in the Homo
for the Friendless.
Their father was notlllod, and ho
camo on here yesterday for the purpose
of taking tho children back to New
York. He burst Into tears when he mot
them and heard tho story of their suf
fering. He declared that ho wrote no
less than twcuty.-t.wo letters to the
Keifers during the last eight months,
Inquiring for the children, but received
no answer. Some of these letters wero
written to the girl, and she said yes
terday that her -aunt would not permit
her to reply to them.
The little boy, who denied 'on the
stand that the Injury on his arm .had
been indicted by his aunt, admitted to
Mrs. Duggan yesterday that It had
been, nnd said that ho told a different
story at the hearing because he was
afraid or Mrs. Kolfer. The children will
go back to New York with their father
todav.
