Concurrence Opinion
The child which the defendant was convicted of abandoning was born out of wedlock. A few months after its birth the -defendant married the mother. If the child was begotten by defendant.his marriage to its mother after its birth legitimatized it and he became in law its father. (Dom. Rel. Law, § 24.)
