Haunted Y ears;
Victim Is Alive

letter received by Mr.. Shatzer was
signed with strange name, Harry f.
Thomas, 1t contained this story of the
| disappearance of the new name:
In Perpetual Torment.
For IA years Hall, under the name
Of Harry e. Thomas Of Denver has
Quaked ut the sight Of a police officer.
He has avoided all persons he knew
when he was Hall. He has spent wake
full nights, fearing arrest for murder.
A wife and then a child served to add
to his anXieties. What, if they should
discover he had killed d man?
Hut the worry is over. Thomas was
walking recently on a Denver street
He met the man for whose murder he
believed he was hunted, the letter
states. The two recognized each other
at the same time. The murdered"
man held out his hand in greeting.
Il thought killed you" Thomas
gasped.
Land, no. the victim" replied Il
was only bruised a little"
In the IA years since his disappear
ance Halls family has mourned him
as dead. Relatives after a dillgent
search, took steps to collect his insur-
ance, but lacking proof Of death, we're
unable to do so.
OF what happened after Hall, with
$i75 in wages, left the harvest fields
the letter has this to say:
Il got into a dice game. | won $3.50.
one Of the heavy losers was John Viii
hanson. He and l fought over the
game, then patched up our differences.
Friendly we climbed into a box car to
60 to Kansas City. We quarreled
again, fought, and Williamson fell
from the train in the fight.
Not Guilty of Murder.
The next day | read in a paper
that the body of an unidentified man
had been found on the railroad right
of way, ! was not guilty Of murder,
but to prove it was a different thing.
Others had seen us quarrel.
Il went West, changed my name to
Thomas and grew up with the country.
Finally ! settled In Denver, was mar
ried and now have daughter six
years old.
"You cannot imagine the relief now.
williamson went home with me, and
we told my Wife and daughter. ! am
the happiest man in the country. We

of the folks right away. l can hardly
