In re Newman

Quillian, Judge.

Appeal was taken from a final order of adoption by the natural father of the adopted child. Held:

The evidence was sufficient: (1) to show an abandonment under Code Ann. § 74-403 (2) (Ga. L. 1941, pp. 300, 301; 1950, pp. 289, 290; 1957, p. 367; 1960, pp. 791, 792; 1967, pp. 107, 108) by the natural father, (see Nix v. Sanders, 136 Ga. App. 859 (223 SE2d 21)), and (2) to sustain the order granting the adoption.

Judgment affirmed.

Deen, P. J., and Webb, J., concur.
