presumably Sanders, in committing
the crime. Fay previously had been
bound over to the grand jury on a
charge OF carrying concealed weap-
ons.
The identity Of Fay. or LaBelle, is
becoming more and more a mystery.
Letters written by Fay and his attor-
ney to Fay's parents at Minneapolis
have remained unanswered. FAY
wrote on June 81. the letter being
mailed by Deputy Sheriff Starn the
following day: and counsel for Fay
wrote about the same time. It is be-
lieved that Fay's parents do not live
In Minneapolis and that he has not
made his home in that. city for any
length OF time. The Atters, 1t Is be-
lieved. may have been permitted by
Fay to have been sent to further con-
ceal his identity. Statements that he
lid not want his parents to know of
his arrest and the crimes with which
he is charged lead to the belief that
he may have assumed a name and a
place Of residence in Minneapolis. II
the letters are not delivered they will,
Of course, be returned to the sender
and It then will become known
whether Fay's parents reside at the
address given.
Fay apparently Is well acquainted
