“WILL-O’-THE-WISP” GIRL

Thomas Miller, the wealthy bachelor contractor of Passaic, N. J., and the “Will-o’-therWisp” girl whom he is fighting to retain custody of against the suit of Joseph Samtax of Athenia, who claims the child as his own, asserting her name to be Francis Albina Samtax. Miller asserts he has cared for the child since she was four months old, when his sister took her up as an abandoned baby. The contractor says he will spend every dollar he owns to retain possession of the child.
