Harry Flint, Star Witness for the,
State In Murder Trial.

Ran Away While Gray Hearing
Was in Prosress-.Witnessed
Shooting Of Williams.
Has Been Sought by Sheriff
Shoemaker Since Last
November.

Harry Flint, the states star witness
in the murder cases against John Gray
and Pat Dunn, who has been missing
since the Gray trial last November, is
in the county Jail and will be punished
for contempt Of court. Sheriff Shoe
maker has sought him necessarily since
his disappearance, and his capture was
effected after considerable hard work.
Flint is about "a years of age and at
the time of the murder of the colored
man, Williams. he was employed as
fireman at the Pilgrim Hotel Flint was
en- eyewitness to the shooting and was
by far the best witness on the part of
the state. Before the grand jury he tes-
titled that he saw John Gray fire the
fatal shot. On the morning of the day
that Flint was to testify, and after he
he disappeared. Judge Burnham. be-
the issuance of warrant for his arrest
and instructed the sheriff to find the
man If he could possibly do so.
The Sheriff determined to find the
man. and sought evidence that would
assist him in locating Flint. The mans
personal belongings left at the hotel
were searched. and photograph of a
lady, taken by a Rock Island, ILL.,, pho
3tographer, was found. "A trip to Rock
Island was made by the officer and
he there learned the Identity of the lady.
She was the daughter of a Battle Creek,
Mich, man for whom Flint formerly
worked and with whom he made his
home f. number of years when a
boy. Thru this family. the sheriff sue
ceeded in locating all, the near relatives
of Flint, who We're scattered in four or
five adjoining states. Communication
was opened with the officers in the
towns where these relatives reside. and
thus Flint was located near Eldorado.
Kas.. where he has an uncle and where
he wac employed with thresher crew.
Sunday morning Sheriff Shoemaker
received telegram from the marsha!
at Eldorado saying Flint was in custo-
Gy. The sheriff sent a message inquir-
Ing II the prisoner insisted on requisi-
ton papers, ard was informed that the
young man would return without them.
Mr. Shoemaker started for Eldorado on
Monday morning, and arrived in this

Flint says he had two reasons for
leaving Marshalltown in hurry. He
says the boiler at the hotel had been
working badly and he was Disguised
with his job. The other reason given is
that he did not wish to be responsible
for sending a man to- tie penitentiary,
perhaps for life. AT the time of his dis
appearance the officers supposed that
Flint had been bribed by the friends OF
Gray and Dunn. This he denies, and it
i, presumed now that he was frightened
by them with threats of violence Coun-
ty Attorney Stone says If Flint's testi-
mony had been secured at the trials the
evidence would have been SO strong that
the defense would not have appealed the
cases, which was done Immediately
after their sentence for third degree
murder.
Flint may be heavily fined or may be
sent to Jail for one year for contempt.
