WOLCOTT, C. J., and CAREY and HERRMANN, JJ., sitting.


WOLCOTT, Chief Justice:

This is an appeal from an order of adoption of the Orphans' Court. The child involved is illegitimate. Two petitions were simultaneously before the Orphans' Court. The first in time was filed by the putative paternal grandparents of the child, to which petition was attached a written consent to adoption by the child's natural mother. The second was filed by the putative father of the child and his wife, not the mother of the child.
