Miller was out of town on a hunting trip. Their home was almost directly in the path of the slide which started near the A-J tramroad and accumu- lated considerable volume before it reached the street, moving the house own the hill about eight feet. No one was injured. Neighbors were warned of the danger of more slides, although cessation of rain later in the day somewhat improved the situation. Unusually heavy rainfall for several weeks and the November 14 storm probably caused the slide. K.

The deaths were described by Lt. Col. James C. Harper, Executive Officer, as a “slaying and suicide.” The victims were Sgt. and Mrs. William G. Henninger. Colonel Harper blamed the shoot- ing on domestic troubles and said it occurred shortly after the couple had left. the club where they had spent most of the afternoon. Henninger, 34, was stationed here regularly but had recently been on temporary duty as fire ' chief at nearby Fort Casey. His wife, the step-daughter of M-Sgt. John N. Clark of Fort Worden, had been living in Port Townsend with her three children by a former mar- riage.
