March 1908 Salina, Kansas "Salina is ringing with a number of sensations which are keeping the newspapers busy and the tongues of gossips wagging. Principal among these is the warrant sworn out by Elmer Henry against Nathan Burdick, charging him with criminal intimacy with his wife. Mrs Henry came back with a sensational story, accusing her husband of an attempt to blackmail and the whole affair was a plot. She also states that the marshal and policeman present swore falsely and were paid to do so. Burdick has skipped. Another sensation was sprung when it was learned that Elmer Henry sent a letter through the mail to Nate Burdick, demanding $1,000 to quiet the case. Henry has now disappeared. "
