A baby left on a doorstep six years ago is the subject of a legal tangle of much concern to its foster parents. The child has learned to look upon David and Lillie Hyman as its parents and they supposed they had adopted the infant until a claim was made re- cently by a woman who alleges she is the child’s mother. Of this there is no proof at hand, but her ap- pearance caused the Hymans to look up the court records, and it was dis- covered that the final court order had not been filed and there was nothing to show the child was tneirs, but proof of the child’s parentage will be a diffi- cult problem, as it has changed since it was found on the doorstep. Hyman says the order of adoption was signed by Judge Ogden, but there is no record, and the adoption proceed- ings are incomplete. The little girl was left on the steps of the Hyman home one night in March, 1897. After caring for the infant for some time the couple began legal proceedings looking to its adoption. According to their statement the question was prop- erly settled. Within the last few weeks, however, two letters have been received, signed by a woman who says she is the mother of the child and that she wants it. Hyman has employed Attorney Tom Bradley to try to straighten out the court record and confirm his claim. —_——————————— BERKELEY DEBATERS WIN FROM OAKL/ D High School Talkers Hold Animated Discussion on the Rostrum and Are Cheered in Turns.
