Arkansas Posse Seeks Slayer in Mountain Search
In Yellville Arkansas nearly every able bodied man joined late police and deputies in a search for a mysterious killer who shot and killed state trooper Ridney A Pavatt as he and others approached a mountain cabin to question a burglar. The 24 year old World War II veteran fled into rugged terrain pursued by bloodhounds and airplanes. Discharged papers bearing a soldier's name found at the cabin raised questions if the man was absent without leave from Fort Lewis Washington for weeks. The killer's identity and the stolen papers remain unresolved. Hydrogen is mentioned as a unrelated note about separating water by electrolysis.
