Greenville,. Nov. 7-,As a result of
the killing at 2 o'clock yesterday after
noon of Aya Flinkenshelt, 44, at his
home on tLe Laurens road, Sheriff Sam

ing for James E. Salmon, 26, on a
charge of murder.
Up to a late hour last night no word

who had taken up the trail and was
traveling by auto in another state in
search of the young man. A full de
scription of Salmon was wired to offl
cers in cities and towns throughout
(ne state and section. Deputies in
Greenville spent the aternoon and
night working on the case, but no in
formation further than .sone which
they said strengthened the belief that
Salmon was the man foand.
The man surc:ected Is from Morgah
ton, N. C., near Asheville, add had
been in Greenville, but -three or foNUT
days. Unconfirmed Information reach
ing the sheriff was to to the effect that
lie, with .Flinkenshelt and a wotnat
whose ident-ity has not been pbsitively
established were togetyr on Th'irsday
night. The theory has been advanced
by some officers that ro'bbery was not
the motive of the Crime, nTivhough the
guilty man took cash 'amounting to
about $300 .from the ' Plinkenslielt
home after the killing; litit this belief
has likewise not receblell confirmation
in the shape of evideInce.
According to witnesses who were at
the Flinkenshelt home when the shoot
in.g occurred a young man drove up to
the house abon't 2 o'clock yesterday
afternoon. In 'the car which was an
Overland Four -or a Ford, was a young
woman, who remained in lnr seat
while the mant went to'fhe Finkelshell
home. The man walked to the house
whleh ia situated down a lone sone 20t

LIarriy, 1-1-year-old soin of Flinken

ton near the - house, said that he saw
the young man search his father at
the point of the gun, and then -niarc1
him back to the house.
On returning to the houst-, it 1
Sathered from reports reaching ofil
ccirs that the two -went inito a 'front
