Overseers of the Poor v. Overseers of the Poor
Opinion of the Court
The facts found by the court below show that the pauper became emancipated from her father after she arrived at full age. at the time she became a charge on Penn township. She continued to receive support from that township, although it after-wards arranged for her support in the borough of Selinsgrove. That her condition continued such that she was incompetent to-acquire a settlement in said borough is clearly shown by the opinion of the learned judge. Inasmuch, then, as she had an unquestioned settlement in Penn township, when she became a charge thereon, it still continues there.
Judgment affirmed.
