N. Ebersole, sixty, former Dunkard
minister, committed suicide In pail
here today. He was charged with
the murder of fifteen year old Hazel
Macklin, whose body was found In a
vault in park near here yearly a
year ago. She had been strangled to
death.
The police had woven about Eber-
sole a network OF evidence, though
circumstantial, was considered by
them to be conclusive. Contrary to re-
ports that he would probably confess,
Ebersole maintained hts innocence un.
til his death, He issued a written
statement declaring himself innocent.
Hazeps body was found four weeks
after she was reported missing. Nc
search was made for her during that
time, and 1t was only through the ef-
forts of the girls in her Sunday school
class, that an organized attempt was
made to find her.
The girl inserted an ad for work as
ia domestic. She said on leaving the
home Of her uncle, here that man
had answered the ad and had told her
to meet a man dressed as Dunkard,
near Island park.
Ebersole hanged himself in hit
cell. Tie police today declared he
probably was insane. Since the Mack
lin girls death, he has mentioned her
name many times and his actions
about the farm have been peculiar.
