was tried but acquitted ON charges
of having accepted usurious interest
from the Julian Petroleum corpora
tiOn.
After protesting that lie had no
intention of killing Flint and that
he acted on TN impulse Keaton ad-
mitted he had thought of Staying
the banker for some time.
"Flint ruined me-" keaton said.

and it went down. | had four
thousand shares.
81 thought Of killing him some
time ago but | didn't really expect

stood up and shot him."
Keaton fired three bullets. One
struck Flint in the throat and the
other two hit him high in the chest.
The case in wLich Flint was test
flying was that of David Selznick,

a million dollars damages from a
bank with which Flint formerly
was associated.
Selznick claimed he had posted

but that the stock never had been
returned to him. Flint testified he
could not remember details of the
quarter of a million dollar trans
action.
Flint was born in Boston, Mass,
in 1865 moving to San Francisco
where he received his early school
education.
In 1896 Flint was appointed

tan Bank and Trust Company.
Later he served as executive vice
president of the, Pacific Southwest
Trust and Savings Bank and di
rector of the Los Angeles First Ma
tional Bank.
He resigned his offices with the
banks when the two firms consOl
idated under the name of Security

Flint retired from public life il
January 1929. Then he spent mucl
of his time travelling about the
