or not, Tan Cleghorn, the young Amb y
farmer, whom she accused on her death
bed, will be prosecuted, according to
W. J. Cochran, brother-in-law of the
girl. He declared today that poison or no
poison, Cleghorn was responsible for
the tragedk’, and he will not rest until a
court has tried him.
In the meantime, Cleghorn, who yes
terday appeared at Ashburn to protest
his innocence, declares that he will wel
come any Investigation. He not only
denies he poisoned the girl, but assert*
that he was not responsible for the
condition that led to her death. Miss
Marchman. he says, long before her
death told him of her plight and ac
cused another of her suitors.
Cleghorn, who made an exclusive,
complete statement to The Georgian
yesterday, says that he never was
engaged to marry the girl; that the
trip they made together to Ashburn
when members of her family' declare
they were to be wedded, had no more
import than any ordinary ride. Os his
own accord he gave out a letter from
Miss Marchman, which referred to the
ride and which did not mention mar
riage.
The letter read:
Letter Calls Him "Kind Friend.”
October 31, 1912.—Mr. Tan Cleg
horn : Kind Friend —I will drop you
a few lines to let you hear from me.
Say. Tan, you don’t know how my
heart is broken this morning to
think how I have been treated. Say,
Tan, 1 have heard something of you
and myself the day we went to
Ashburn, so come down home to
nighteif you can. I know you would
like to know what it Is.
Well. I will ring off for this time,
as I haven’t the heart to write
much, so hope to see you soon.
From your friend, MINNIE.
The young farmer declares that he
has never been in hiding and Is willing
to face any charge the relatives of the
girl may bring against him. He as
serts he will stay in Ajshburn until hi»
name Is cleared.
But the girl’s relatives are just ns
positive in their accusation of Cleghorn
as he is in his own defense. Cochran
today said that he was only waiting for
a definite finding on the examination of
the girl's stomach before he takes steps
to have the man prosecuted.
Calls Cleghorn Responsible.
"Whether the girl was poisoned or
not,” said the brother-in-law, "Cleg
horn is responsible for her death, and
the law ought to hold him for It, and I
will not rest until he answers to the
charge before a court.”
Cochran still was undetermined as to
what action he would take on the rec
ommendation of Dr. Funke, the Atlanta
chemist, who examined the girl’s stom
ach for trace of poison. Dr. Funke re
ported that If poison had been intro
duced it had been absorbed by this time
and that no definite conclusion could
be reached until the brain and the liver
were examined.
This would necessitate the exhuming
of the body. He offered to come to
Ashburn to make the tests, but so far
the family has not decided whether to
follow the poison theory further.

Methodists Will Meet at Carrollton Tomorrow
VISITORS ARRIVE TODAY
CARROLLTON, GA., Nov. IS.—This en
tire city is in eager activity prepara
tory to the opening of the forty-sixth
session of the North Georgia annual con
ference here tomorrow morning. Rev. K.
A. Edmondson, the pastor of the First
Methodist church here, says everything is
in complete readiness, and each home in
the city is awaiting the arrival of its
guests. The hospitality of the citizens
of Carrollton is unbounded, as homes of
every denomination have been placed at
the disposal of the entertainment com
mittee. Pastor Edmondson is being as
sisted by a score of prominent business
men in his church to greet the delegates
as they arrive and convey them to their
homes in carriages and automobiles.
The city is appropriately decorated in
honor of the conference.
The first work of the conference is on
hand today J in the examining of young
undergraduate ministers, who arrived
yesterday.
Every train coming today is bringing a
good number of members of the confer
ence. But the main portion of the con
ference body will arrive tonight at 6:35
o’clock in special cars from Atlanta over
the Southern and Central roads by Bre
men.
Working on Appointments.
Bishop James H. McCoy, who will pre
side at this conference, arrived last night,
and is the guest of C. H. Stewart, 6 South
street. Bishop McCoy has already' be
gun the work of making the appoint
ments, for today he is in consultation with
his cabinet of presiding elders relative
to this work. The ministers who consti
tute the cabinet and assist the bishop in
arranging the appointments are presiding
elders over districts as follows: B. P.
Allen, of Athens district; W. I’. Lovejoy,
of Atlanta district; W. T. Irvine, of Dal
ton district: T. J. Christian, of Elberton
district; Luke G. Johnson, of Gainesville
BOY DRIVES TO COURT
IN STOLEN BUGGY TO
REPORT HE’S “GOOD’’
ST. LOUIS. Nov. 19.—After driving
to the juvenile court with a stolen horse
and buggy, reporting to the court Unit
he had been a “good boy” after his ar
rest for driving off with a rig a month,
ago. Maurice Birmingham, 15 years old.
returned to the buggy outside and drove
back to the neighborhood of his home
with two companions, Joseph Bland
ford, 16 years old, and John Olson, 14.
This was learned when Patrolman
Hunt arrested the trio and took them
to the Page Boulevard station. < Hson

trict; M'. L. Pierce, of LaGrange district;
J. T. Daves, of Marietta district; J. W.
Quillian, of Oxford district, and W. B. Dil
lard, of Rome district.
There is no little speculation as to ap
pointments to be made at this confer
ence. The general idea prevails that a
great many changes will be made.
Changes in some of the most prominent
pulpits are expected, and it is understood
that some preachers from other confer
ences will be transferred here. Should
this be don? it will not meet the approval
of many in this conference At the ses
sion a year ago a resolution was Intro
duced against such a procedure in fu
ture. The resolution was nut entertained
by Bishop Wilson. Nevertheless, it is
considered that the will of the coitference
■was expressed.
Two Important Issues.
A feature of this conference that will
cause something of a sensation is the
introduction of a motion to forbid any
man serving longer than four consecutive
years as presiding elder. It is not yet
known who will introduce this resolution,
but it is surely expected to be done. Sen
timent in the matter is very pronounced,
and such action is being urged on all
sides.
Another matter that will be brought for
ward at this session will be the request
of the women of the church that laity
rights be granted them. The North Geor
gia conference has never considered the
matter, although it has been before the
generela conference and has been disap
proved bj- that body by a. vote of 141 to 77.
The plan now is to urge this conference
to look Into the merits of the innovation
by appointing a committee to investigate
and make report a year hence. .Many of
the prominent Methodist church women
are connected with the movement, and
will be here tills week to agitate ft.

Attend the Funeral at Little
Church in Greenville. 1
The body of Joseph Meriwether Ter
rell. former governor and United States
senator, who died in Atlanta Sunday

former home of the Terrell family. The
funeral was attended bj- hundreds of

Mr. Terrell since his early manhood and
who had watched with interest his rise
in public life.
Rev. Dr. Perry conducted the funeral
ceremony In the Greenville Baptist

cort of honor were many Atlanta
friends who had accompanied the body
on the special train which left Atlanta
yesterday afternoon.
To few men have been paid such lov
ing tributes as those bestowed upon
Mr. Terrell at the services in the At

afternoon. The governor and the jus
tices of the supreme and appellate
courts, judges of every tribunal In the
city, state house officials ftom the high
est to the lowest, distinguished mem
bers of the local bar, all joined in pay
ing last honors to the man who had
served his state honorably and well.
Many Floral Tributes.

sive organization of deep thinkers,
came to mourn the loss of one of Its
most brilliant members. Senators, con
gressmen and former governors sent
messages of sorrow to be read at the
funeral. There was a general outpour
ing of grief.
The floral tributes, which converted
the altar into a bower, came from a
hundred organizations and individuals.
One of the handsomest was from the
Ten club; one of the most touching was
a wreath of roses and chrysanthemums
laid on the casket by Howard Russell,
a faithful negro who had served Gov
ernor Terrell as porter for five years.
There were wreaths from officials at
the capitol, from members of bench and
bar, from the Baptist home mission

pire Life Insurance Company and from
hundreds of individual friends.
Dr. John E. White, the pastor, paid
high praise to the memory of the for
mer senator. He spoke of the personal
character of Joseph M. Terrell, his sim
plicity, his loyalty, his love. He said
the years of Governor Terrell’s admin
istration had been constructive, uplift
ing, peaceful. In closing. Dr. White
laid especial stress upon Governor Ter
i lull’s work for education in his native
| state and on his religious and moral
character.
PERFERVID LETTERS
SHOW ‘DOLL” BRIDE
HAS A WARM HEART
NEW YORK, Nov. 19— Testifying
before Justice Gerard in the supreme
court, Mrs. Severina G. Samarelli, the
“kissless bride,” offered reasons, back
ed up by documentary proof in the form
of letters, why she should wish to di
vorce Dr. Samarelli.
Mrs. Samarelli has been called the
“marble statue,” the “doll bride” and
other names descriptive of extreme in
difference by her husband, who, she
says, deserted her |5 days after. they
were married.
The young woman’s personal appear
ance. her account of the love which she
lavished on Samarelli and remarkable
letters she offered as evidence are evi
dence, her lawyers say. that she is not a
“marble-hearted woman.” One letter
read, in part:
“1 intrust my existence to thee; do
thou recall It to real life. Cause it to
vibrate: warm it with the heat of thy
love. Love me as I do feel I love. It
is not true that thou canst love me bet
ter. more ardently, more passionately.”
This and other letters of the same
kind were written to Samarelli by his
bride while he was away from home on
short visits. After they quarreled, she
says, she took them from the desk of
the physician. She says she wishes a
divorce merely as a vindication, as she
is not dependent on Samarelli for a
living.
