GEORGE HARRINGTON WANTED
IN QUINCY;, CAUGHT IN TUpEL0

Quincy, March 7-George Barring
ton, charged with the murder Of Dep
uty Sheriff Freeman here on the night
of Jan. 13, was returned to the Gads-
den county Jail this morning by Sher-
iff Gregory, who brought him from
Trpelo, Miss, where he had been ar
rested following receipt Of telegram
from the warden of the North Dakota
penitentiary at Bismarck, saying that
harrington was in the custody of the
federal authorities at Tupelo. The
sheriff Immediately got in touch with
the federal officer and the county
sheriff at Tupelo and after delay OF
several days last Thursday a message
was received from Special Agent
Menard saying that the man in GUS
tody there was harrington and for
Sheriff Gregory to wire instructions,
which was promptly done.
Friday afternoon Deputy Stowe left
to take charge of the prisoner and the
sheriff left Saturday to return him to
the Jail in Quincy.
harrington, who made his escape
on the night the deputy sheriff was
murdered, was under the impression
that the other prisoners who had
planned to escape at the same time
had gained their liberty. He told the
sheriff while on his return trip that
the negro Silas Ford, placed in Jail
a few hours before the murder, had
committed the deed and that the pis-
tol was taken from Freeman by Ford,
VINO, he said, did the shooting. He
said the negro accompanied him out
of town aond dropped the pistol on
the outskirts of town at the electric
light plant and that (Barrington)
picked it up. The fact that the negro
did not leave the Jail brands this
statement as a falsehood When ar
rested in the Mississippi town as
suspicious character and as a prob
able German spy, Darlington sought
his release by telling the authorities
that he had been released from the
penitentiary in North Dakota a short
time previous and in reply to a tele-
gram to Bismarck a message was re-
ceiyed advising that the man was
wanted for murder in Quincy, Fla.
While in Jail here, harrington told
the other prisoners that he had
served term in the northern prison
and after his escape Sheriff Greg
ory communicated with the warden
of the penitentiary at Bismarck and
received detailed description and
photograph of the fugitive The pris-
oneI was in jovial mood until he
reached Quincy this morning and
found that the other prisoners had
not escaped and would be used as
witnesses against him. He has been
placed in the death cell for safekeep-
ing. where he PAGES back and forth
like wild animal in a cage.
