probing the explosion.—Errol Flynn Trial—Cathcart-JonesRelates Several1941 Excursions. . . With Miss Softer leeLOS ANGELES, Jan. 22—(AD —Capt. Owen Cathcart-Jones, former RCAF squadron leader, admitted at Movie Star Errol Flynn’s trial on statutory rape charges today that he had accompanied Peggy La Rue Satterlee to various places—even to a mortuary where, he said, Peggy played hide-and-seek among the corpses.The dapper flier, who said he is 42, told on defense cross-examination that 16-year-old Peggy had been a frequent visitor to Ins Hollywood apartment, alone. Miss Satterlee is the complaining witness on two of three counts with which Flynn is charged.“On one occasion did you not go to a mortuary?” asked Flynn’! attorney, Jerry Giesler.“Yes,” said Cathcart-Jones.“And didn’t Peggy play hide-and-seek among the corpses.”“Yes.”“And wasn’t the casket of an old lady opened?”“Yes”“And the sheet pulled down from a Filipino who was slashed across the middle?”“Yes.”The witness, who said his night club and other excursions with Miss Satterlee were in the summer of 1941, was asked by Giesler whether he was married at that time. He said he was not.“You had a wife and two children, didn’t you?” the attorney asked.“A divorced wife,” Cathcart-Jones amended.
