A forgiving father Wednesday asked dismissal of an abduction charge he had brought three years ago against the man who took his 15-year-old daughter away and married her. In Ridgeway Felony Court the father, William Smink, clasped hands warmly with his son-inlaw, Charles M. Fonda, 33, and said he was convinced the marriage was a happy one. Early in March 1954, Fonda left with Elizabeth Smink and the couple got married in Reno, Nev. Subsequently the couple settled in a cottage at Monte Vista. Calif. Elizabeth's father filed an abduction charge against Fonda. There were no further developments in the case until Elizabeth, now 18, returned to her parents' home for a visit a few days ago. She told them that she and her husband were very happy, that he has a good job as a machinist and that they are expecting a baby in October. The father relented and asked authorities to drop the charge against Fonda. He was told however, that Fonda would have to appear in court here before it could be dismissed. Fonda returned Wednesday after waiving extradition in California and father, daughter and son-in-law met happily before Queens Magistrate Cornig G. McKennee. Family attorney Thomas LaFauci told the story. The Magistrate promptly paroled Fonda in Custody of LaFauci pending a routine hearing April 25, before which the district attorney's office must make a formal check on the case and Fonda's background. With that, father, daughter and son-in-law left arm-in-arm for the Sminks' home, Astoria, Queens. Long Beach (CA) Press-Telegram, April 18, 1957] >> www.fonda.org <<
