GREENHILL, Justice.

In this habeas corpus proceeding, the question is whether a district judge has the power, in a divorce decree, to provide that the infant child of the marriage shall remain within the county and that the residence of the child shall not be moved from the county without an order of the court. Because of the violation of such an order, Betty Rhodes was adjudged to be in contempt of court. She seeks relief from this Court.
