to one that this is no case of kid-

appears pping, and there is nothing that would warrant

prosecution for that offence. There will pro- hly be no risk in detaining the child pending enquiries of the Society for the protection of omen and children. But it is clear that the ther meant to give his child for adoption; and do not see how the child could be detained from m, if he should come himself' and claim it.

REPORT BY DR. EITEL.

Thanks to the Detective employed by the hinese Society for the protection of women nd children. I now enclose what I believe to be pors revealing the real truth in the case, viz: closures marked B.. C. and D. A careful muiry into the case on the basis of these papers,

a comparison of these papers with the deed · Trift (Eclosure A) and the petition sent down Figinally from Amoy (see within), will leave no Labt as to the real merits of the case.
