Brick From Roy E. Hunt Home

The single feature of the Hunt home in Littlefield, Texas that should not be missed is an examination of the nursery window on the south side of the house . That window is pictured on page 159 of Clovis Road I and page 200 of Clovis Road II. That original photo was taken by Lubbock Investigator Aubrey Fawver on October 26, 1943 and shows the point of entry for +James C. Thomas at the time he murdered the Hunts. The small child’s chair that was introduced into evidence at trial is resting underneath the open window on the original photo. The author, +Dana Middlebrooks Samuelson, is shown standing at that entry window. A brick from the Hunt home purchased by Roy in 1938 has a  characteristic color and texture.
