CONTEST FOR CHILDREN.
Robert Orr Quigley. an aged farmer,
living at Mossgrove in Armstrong Co..
and father of B. C Quigley of Butler
1 applied Monday for a writ of habeas
corpus for the bodies of bis two grand
children, Oliver, aged sixteen years and
Daisy, aged twelve, who have been liv
ing with tbeir step-mother, the widow
of Marcus Watterson, deceased, near
Maple Furnace in Parker township. The
story leading up to the legal proceed
ings is interesting. Mr Quigley's
daughter married Marcus Watterson
and they lived for some years at Greece
City, where the children in dispute were
born and where their older bmther was
burned to death ten years ago Later
they moved to the lower oil fields where
Mrs Watterson died. Watterson then
cauie north again and married a daugh
ter of Philip Bowser of Parker town
ship. On the 21st of September last,
Watterson died. Mr. Quigley, the
grandfather, was displeased with his
son-in-law's second marriage and after
his death tried to get the children and
give them a home with him, but tlieir
location was unknown to him, except
that they lived in the northeastern part
of Butler county. Some weeks ago he
started after them and hired a Mr.
Bowser, a relative of Mrs. Watterson,
to guide him to the Watterson home,
but they never reached the house and
his guide left him at Petrolia. The old
man then requested his son, B. C.
Quigley. to hunt the children up, which
which he did last week. Mr. Quigley
arrived at the Watterson house about
six o'clock in the evening and stayed all
night, but the step-mother refused to
give up the children. The habeas
corpns proceedings were then com
menced and on Tuesday Deputy Sheriff
Rainey Hoon drove thirty miles through
the rain, seryed the writ and brought
the girl, Daisy, to Butler with him On
seeing the Sheriff approach the boy ran
away. The little girl is now with her
grandfather at Mossgrove.
