It is unclear if LARKINS did return from his trip; however, family members report that his brother, Albert "Bud" Larkins (deceased), confessed to killing him at 809 Riverside Ave. The basement of Albert Larkins' residence was searched by the Knoxville Forensic Anthropology Center in 1981 with no success.

Looks like Hubert has a bit of a criminal past - I wonder if his fingerprints are on file anywhere.
