Thornton Towneley. an architectural
student at the University Of Pennsyl-
vania. twenty-five years old, com
mitted suicide to-day by shooting him
self through the head on the Darby
Road. short distance from the Merton
Cricket club golf course. He was
Gose friend Of Addison II. Mccullough,
tho student who was found drowned in
1he Delaware River on Saturday. and
whose death was attributed to suicide.
The two students. il was said, had ar
ranged TO sail last Monday for Ger
many.
He attended his classes as usua yes
terdav and spent part OF last evening
studying at the Psi Epsilon house, TO
which fraternity he belonged. He
spent the night at his home. but arose
early this morning and left the Hamp-
ton Court apartments, where he re
sided with his parents.
There can he little doubt that he
went away with tho firm intention OF
taking his life. for he had purchased p
new revolver and had carefully shaved
the bullets to point before he
loaded it,
The man who discovered the body
was frightened and ran away Later
he turned up at the Merton golf house
and told the steward that there was
dead man lying in the road nearby.
The steward Informed Captain Donagy,
Of the Merton police. and Donagy hur-
ried over and took charge OF the body.
Young Towneey lay by the side of
the road. the revolver with which ne
had shot himself still ciutched in his
hand. There was a bullet wound in his
right temple just over the ear, and the
sharpened pellet had passed through
his head. coming out over his left ear.
Neither the young mans father, l..
]. Towneley. manager of the National
Casket Company. of this city, nor any
member OF his family or friends could
shed any light on the motive for the
act His family say that he had not
been melancholy. and the moroseness
apparently was only noted by some or
his associates at college. They added
that he cared little for girls.
Towneley was a member Of the Mask
aud Wig Club. and last year was a
member Of the cast. appearing as Hans
