Child Taken From Its Mother and Returned by Sheriff

Day county deputy sheriff visited Germania last week seeking a two year nine month old boy whose mother had fled with both children to avoid a court order granting custody to the father. The father and officer recovered the boy after the mother prepared him to go with the deputy. The mother, Kylie, had been married in Aberdeen to H Anderson, a photographer, but the marriage failed amid accusations of infidelity and support disputes leading to divorce. Deputy Ladendorf traced them to Germania and found the children there. The incident underscores strain from neglect of marriage vows and the duties of family life.
