Death
Clem Adair, a negro convict at San Quentin, ran amuck last Sunday in the prison yard, and escaping his pursuers, committed suicide by jumping from a stairway landing to the ground 60 feet below. An inquest was held at the prison Monday by Coroner J. Ray Keaton and a jury. The verdict was that Adair came to his death from a fracture of the skull.
