ORDRS 10 MONTHS HEAD Mother Drops Suit When Daughter Looks Kindly Upon Defendant A romance that had developed between the daughter of a woman suing the parents of a youthful suitor stayed the machinery of legal process and all is peaceful between the two, it was reported in court circles at Santa Ana today.

McFarland, she alleging she suffered permanent injuries to her face when she was bitten by a bull-dog in the custody of young McFarland, who is said to be courting Mrs. Moore's daughter. All the court records showed was the formal notice that the suit had been dismissed, on motion of the plaintiff, but friends of both families interested in the case declared among themselves that Miss Moore had successfully prevailed upon her mother to have the matter settled without the aid of Superior Judge R. Y. Williams, who ordered the incident closed, so far as his court was concerned. Prior to this entry, however, starling accusations were hurled by both families, despite the fact, it was admitted, that bonds of matrimony bringing them closer were a possibility in the near future. She passed by the McFarland car, containing the dog, and the animal ferociously dig its fangs into her lip, the wound leaving a long scar, Mrs. Moore alleged, adding that the animal again leaped upon her tearing a deep cut in her arm before she could free herself. In their answer, however, the McFarlands averred the dog was tied to the steering wheel of the car while it was parked near the Moore residence. Mrs. Moore they charged, placed her head, the upper part of her body and her arms in the car in an effort to kiss the dog. It was while the dog was attempting to protect the car and "seeking to escape the caresses of the plaintiff" that he scratched her arms, the McFarlands claimed in their answer to the suit. They denied further injury, also that the dog was a dangerous animal. Young McFarland called a physician and paid for the services he rendered to the mother of the young woamn he was calling on at the time, the answer further alleged.
