James was given a dishoNorable dis
charge from the army following his
conviction of assaulting an elderly wom
an at whose house he applied for food.
He was. sentenced to several years in
prison and the sentence would have ex-
PRED in a little more than month.
On Thursday, during the storm, James
was on an Grand for a piece of iron
which was to be used in repairing ma
chine which had broken down at the
prison He sought shelter in the house
of Keeper Kenyon of the prison. Mrs.
Kenyon was alone in the house and she
ordered him out. He refused to go and
when she tried to force him out, he
struck her with the iron and she fell
unconscious
When she came to herself James had
| fled. Mrs. Kenyon Immediately gave the
alarm and bloodhounds were ordered
out They picked up the trail and fol
| lowed it to the edge of the canal. They
| were started several times and always
finished up there and were unable to
pick the trail up again. This convinced
| the officers that the mans body was il
the canal and they dragged with the
result that it was found. The plac,
| where James disappeared in the cana
| is about two and half miles from th'
prison.
