ASHBURN. GA., Nov. 14.—The body ol' .Mis*- Minnie Marclt nian, a beautiful young girl, lies unburied while Atlanta experts are waiting to exifinine the e.outentb ol her stomtivh. A warrant ha,-, ii-.-.-n issued against Tan Cleghorn, a young farmer, charging him with hav ing caused th*- death ot Minnie Marchmati. and olHcers are searcii ing for him. .Cleghorn has been missing for four days. I’reparations had been made lor the burial oi the young woman, who lived with her widowed mother six miles from Ashburn, when the ; family physician and friends of the family became suspicious and or- I tiered the funeral stopped, it is reported here that < leghorn and Miss Mari-hman were sweethearts, and visited Ashburn together sone da. s I ago. While there, it is said, Cleghorn purchased fruit and candies which lie gave to Miss Marehman, and after eating these she was attacked with convulsions and died in agony. At the coroner’s inquest today tjie mother of the dead girl tes tified that she died after eight convulsions, foaming at the mouth and with every indication that she ’ bad been poisoned. The mother had not seen her daughter take I any medicine, and there was no i trace of poison in the house. Girl Dies Four Days After Man Vanishes. j Friends of the dead girl say Cleg home had promised to marry her and tbeir visit to Ashburn was ostensibly with Uie purpose of securing a mar j rlage license, but Cleghome made some I excuse and the pair agreed to postpone the wedding for a few days The girl i went back to her home In the country and < ’leghorne disappeared. It was four diys after his disappearance that Min nie Marchman died. Doctors Dixon and Thompson, of the 1 village of Rebecca, were called to the Inquest. They removed the stomach *rotn th* body of Miss Marchman and forwarded it to the state chemist at Atlanta for a close examination. It is expected that tile analysis will reveal Just what poison. if any, killed tiie girl. Friends Looked For Their Marriage. The little town of Ashbum, county seat of Turner county, is stirred as ft 1 was never stirred before. Minnie Marchman was known as one of the prettiest girls of the lumber country and one of the most popular. She and young Cleghorne bad been "going together.” as young folk say. for many months, and their marriage was looked upon as a certainty. But for some tlm* Mbs Marchman bad been avoiding her friends and living almost ! as a 1 eeluse, seeing only Cleghorne. •f - Stomach Examined For Poison Here. Miss Marchman’s stomach was re ceived in Atlanta Monday afternoon by Dr. John Funke, director of the Carp - gle laboratory' of pathology and bac teriology, a. department of the Atlanta College of Physicians and Surgeons on Nortl Hittier sue- ', from Dr. J.
