Balckmer fled to Europe to dodge civil suit says attorney
Denver oil man Henry M Blackmer allegedly fled to Europe after learning a civil action could be filed over $759,000 in Continental Trading Company bonds. Attorney Eai C Schuyler testified to the Teapot Dome committee that Blackmer told him in Montreal in 1925 of the 1922 oil deal profits. Schuyler noted Sinclair gave funds to Fair and the Republican National Committee, and Blackmer feared liability and fled to avoid process servers.
