Appeal from Circuit Court, Multnomah County; John McCourt, Judge.
Action by George Johnson against Ethel V. Johnson. From a supplementary order modifying a former order in regard to the custody of the minor children of plaintiff and defendant defendant appeals. Affirmed.
This is an appeal from a supplementary order of the circuit court modifying a former order in regard to the custody of the minor children of plaintiff and defendant.,
The history of the case is as follows: In March, 1919, plaintiff obtained a decree of divorce from defendant on the ground of willful desertion, and in said decree the custody of the two minor children of plaintiff and defendant, Violet, then aged seven years, and Geraldine, aged six years, was awarded to defendant, subject to the right of the plaintiff to see and be with the children at certain times designated; the order being as follows:
In May 1919, a motion was filed by defendant, asking that the previous order be modified so the plaintiff would not be permitted to take the children from her residence, which was with her mother, Mrs. Annabelle Steele, in the city of Portland. The motion was accompanied by affidavits to the effect that the children were of delicate organization and of frail health, and in such fear of their father that, upon one occasion when he proposed to take them to his home Geraldine, the younger child, had fainted, requiring the services of a physician to restore her. The plaintiff replied by an affidavit stating, in substance, that he had in good faith consented that the care and custody of the children should be awarded to the defendant, subject to the conditions set forth in the original decree. The affidavit continues:
