Peggy Gark, real estate agent from Flint Hill, testified that in 1978 or 1979, she found Col. Holmes in his car stuck in a ditch back in the Bear Wallow area, wheels spinning and motor running. When he stopped to ask the colonel if he needed her help, she said. Holmes didn’t recognize her despite the fact that they’d had business dealings dating back for ten years and told her he didn’t need assistance.
Frances Bradford, former proprietor of Bradford’s store and restaurant in Flint Hill, told the court that Col. Holmes had been a regular customer, coming in around twice a week since 1953. In 1978 and 1979, the colonel, who previously had been a very neat dresser, began to come to the store “with his clothes all open, his pants all open...It wasn’t like him.” At that time, he also publicly berated one of the store’s employees, action that was out of character, she said.
In addition, Mrs. Bradford testified that the colonel told her and her husband that he planned to leave Nancy Jones Natt, an employee who had always lived on his farm, the house in which she resided. "He said ‘I want Nancy to be taken care of,’ ” Mrs. Bradford stated, adding that Holmes had also indicated he was considering leaving his farm to a wildlife organization.
