        "text": "PEE CUEIAM.\nAppellant and appellee were divorced in 1944. Custody of two minor children was given to the mother. A daughter, Sharon Carle Eldridge, is in her ninth year and was the subject of an action brought by the father, resulting in an order of May 23, 1951, transferring custody from the mother \u201cduring the summer vacation months. \u2019 \u2019 The mother was given the right to visit the child from nine o \u2019clock until 5 each Saturday. The Chancellor stated that he would determine, \u201cby (his) own investigation of the surroundings, where said child should be.\u201d Believing this to be a temporary order, the Court denied the right of appeal. This was error. A decree awarding or changing the custody of children is final, from which an appeal may be taken. Gregory v. Jackson, 212 Ark. 363, 205 S. W. 2d 471. See, also, Sager v. Hibbard, 203 Ark. 672, 158 S. W. 2d 922; Blake v. Smith, 209 Ark. 304, 190 S. W. 2d 455.\nThe petitioner\u2019s prayer for certiorari will be treated as an application for appeal. The respondent is directed to deposit with the Clerk of the Chancery Court sufficient money to pay court costs, including a transcript of the record, and to make a,n initial payment of $50 to apply on the petitioner\u2019s attorney\u2019s fee. The Clerk of this Court will issue certiorari to bring up the appeal record.\nMillwee and Robinson, JJ., not participating.",
