She was graduat- ed from the Westerly High school and | is now teaching in the Tomaquag val- ley. Her mother had practically aban- | doned her, so it is claimed, until re-| cently, when she attempted to ~take possession of her by force at the schoolhouse. As a result, the court of probate soon after the occurrence ap- pointed Job Thorp as her guardian. An appeal from the probate court in the appointment was taken to the su- perior court and denied. Miss Dahood is now 18 vears .of age and the pet! tion for adoption is approved by her. The petition was received and con- tinued with order of notice. . Minnie B. Tefft, who was confirmed ae executor urder the will of Oscar 1. | Tefft, her husband, and who is the sole beneficiary, petitioned the court tol accept her resignation as executor, and the court so ordered.
