International News Photos (New York, N.Y.) · August 9, 1950

Eminence, Mo....Alleged killer of three persons, Harold Wesley Harris, alias William Harris, ex-convict, is being hunted by a big posse of men and dogs in the woods about 20 miles southeast of eminence. The posse believed it had Harris surrounded yesterday but he is still at large. He fled to the woods from a commandeered truck containing a farm couple whom he kidnapped to aid him in running a roadblock. One of the alleged victims of the triple murder was Harris' four-year-old daughter, Barbara. This photo was made after Harris was arrested in St. Louis on a larceny charge.
