As to the colonel’s relationship with his sister Ruth, he recalled that the colonel felt Ruth had become “very unreasonable” with resoect to the family home they owned jointly on Barnaby Street in Washington, D.C. “They didn’t seem to be able to get along.” But a few years later, Lee remembered, the colonel said they’d “patched up their differences.”
Asked under cross examination if Holmes knew who his old friend was when he brought apples out and visited Lee in the fall of 1979, the witness was indignant. “How do you think he’d come to see me and call me on the phone?” Lee demanded. “Isn’t that rather a foolish question?”
Farm To 4-H
Ruby Jenkins, former extension office secretary who was instrumental in arranging the donation of six acres on Route 211 by Col. Holmes to the Rappahannock Recreation Association (now the site of the county’s first park), testified that the colonel offered his farm to the 4-H if it would be operated as a farm by youngsters in that organization.
Nancy Jones Natt, employee of the colonel’s since he first came to Flint Hill, told the jury that Col. Holmes informed her she would have a home as long as she lived. “Me and my mother," she added.
Frank Huff, Flint Hill rescue squadsman who drove the colonel to Bethesda in the squad’s ambulance for his July, 1979, hospitalization, testified “the colonel told me not too long before he died that his sister would never want for anything as long as she lived.”
