Nov. 18.—Tan Cleg horn, the 20-year-old planter whom a coroner's jury recommended to be held for Investigation in connection with the death of pretty 17-year-old Min nie Marchman, walked into the office of Justice of the Peace Arthur Pate, in Amboy, today, and surrendered, re marking that he understood there was a reward of $2,000 for his capture. He was informed that no warrant had been issued for him; that the re ward report was erroneous, and he was allowed to go without arrest. He was accompanied by his nephew. Nelson Cleghorn, a close, neighbor. Leaving Amboy, young Cleghorn drove to Ashburn, a distance of nine | miles, boldly walking the streets hero | this afternoon and shaking hands with friends. To a Georgian reporter Cleg horn talked freely, denying any com plicity whatever in the death of Miss Marchman and disputing the alleged story of the girl that he was engaged to be married to her. He declared he had not been In hiding but had been at his home, a quarter of a mile from the Marchman home, since two days after the girl died. Cleghorn’s Own Story of Mystery. “I decided to give up today simply to show my friends and others in this county that I have not run away as has been freely reported,” said Cleghorn. “I have been at my home in Am boy district, making no effort what ever to hide, as I had no reason to hide. My home is but a short distance from the home of the Marchmans, and if members of that family have not seen me it was their own fault. I could have been arrested at any time. ■'When I heard that a reward of $2,000 had been offered for me, I just determined to set at rest all of these wild rumors of any disappearance. As to Miss Marchman, the story that I was engaged to marry her !• untrue. 1 had never even discussed marriage with her. I had taken her out buggy riding a number of times, but had never made love to her. "She was a nice, pleasant girl, and I liked her as u good friend, and noth ing more.” With a dramatic motion of his hand, the young planter exclaimed: "And I swear to you now that I never harmed that girl in any way. I wouldn't have harmed a hair of her head for anything In this wide world." Explaining his visit to Aenbum, with Miss Marchman a few days before her tragic death, ho said: "We drove into Ashburn that day just as we had done other times. We spent but a short time here, and then I took her home: there was nothing strange to this visit at all. As to her eating fruit and candy, supposed to have been poisoned, that is all bosh; 1 never bought her any fruit or candy, and she never ate any. It was fully twelve or fifteen days before she died that I left Ashburn. 1 went first to Conyers, Ga., to visit a relative, John Perkle, and after a few days there went to the home of Albert Perkle, another relative, in Buford. "Then I came back home, arriving here two days after the death of Miss Marchman. That was the first I knew of her death. When I left here on my visit she was not even ill, so far as I know. When I found that such a stew had been raised over her death and that my name was connected with it, T de cided to stay at home until the affair was cleared, but I have been placed in such a false light that in justice to my friends 1 wanted them to know that I am right here, and here to stay. This whole thing has been trumped up by certain people who have it in for me; that's the whole story.” Cleghorn is 20 years of age and is of neai appear::nee. He converses in a mild-mannered sort of way and doesn’t give one the impression of be ing a bad man. The report from Atlanta that Dr. Continued or Page Two,
