Summary  
The document details an FBI investigation into Eric Starvo Galt (also referred to as James Eric Gault, Harvey Lowmer, John Willard), a Canadian citizen born in Copper Cliff, Ontario. Galt allegedly changed his legal name to Spany Eric Ang in 1959 after being charged with border running in the late 1950s and deemed mentally disturbed. In March 1963, he voluntarily departed Canada following employment in British Columbia. The FBI sought information on his whereabouts in 1968 but found no records. A witness in Vancouver, Washington, reported seeing a man matching a suspect sketch (linked to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination investigation) on April 10, 1968. The individual was described as white, aged 45–50, with blond and reddish hair, wearing overalls and a checkered shirt, driving a late-model International Jeep with an Idaho license plate (5B703). The FBI checked criminal records across jurisdictions but found no results.  

The investigation also referenced Galt’s alleged connections to the mafia, movements in Florida, California, and Canada, and his possession of a Thermo-Seal laundry mark used on garments linked to the crime scene. The FBI sought to identify him through INS files, noting he was a Canadian citizen with addresses in Alberta and British Columbia. Military and naval bases were examined for Thermo-Seal machines capable of producing specific laundry marks found at the crime scene.  

Separate documents referenced Galt’s alleged ties to the Minutemen, a revolutionary group planning assassinations of civil rights figures including MLK, Rap Brown, and Stokely Carmichael. The plot involved cyanide gas in an air conditioning system at the United Nations building in New York City, with plans for government takeover post-assassination. Bunkers in Montana and Idaho were mentioned, along with FBI efforts to track suspects through birth records, employment checks, and interviews. A white house in Salt Lake City was linked to Minutemen activities, including weapons and subversive materials. Discrepancies in informants’ statements and legal issues involving Galt’s arrests in Canada and the U.S. (1963) were noted.
