Kearsley Mitche . Daugherty came forward and admit ted friendship with the slain artist's model. He was questioned by detecitives regarding the possibility of his having been a blackmail victim, like Mitchell. A short time after this.

I His confinement was voluntary. Inst month, aided apparently by friends. Major Daugherty made a sensational "escape” from the institution. He was walking in the grounds when he suddenly leaped to the running board of a passing automobile and disappeared.
