RALPH LINDSEY IS HELD IN JAIL Former Adams Co. Man Is Held In Michigan While Wife’s Death Is Probed. Ralph Lindsley, 34, former resident of Hartford township, Adams county, is being held in Jail at Centerville, Michigan, while the circumstances surrounding the supposed suicide of his wife, Hazel, 28, at their home near Sturgis, Michigan, about noon last Thursday, are being investigated. Coroner S. E. Coates is making an in-: vestigation of the death ami is expected to make a report late this afternoon. Word of Mrs. Lindsley’s death reached the husband's parents Mr. and Mrs. Eugene M. Lindsley, of west of Geneva, last Friday but the message did not state the circumstances connected with the death. letter it was learned that Mrs. Lndsley died from a bullet wound through her head. According to Lindsley’s story he was putting his car into the garage, when he heard a shot, apparently in ' side of the house. He rushed inside i and found his wife in an upstairs j room dead, with a bullet wound in i her forehead. Beside her was a 32- I calibre automatic pistol. Then Lindsley hurried downstairs and drove into Sturgis, where he called Chief of Police Storms who together with Dr. Kane and Sheriff Moore, went to the Lindsley home. They found the woman, dead, in an upstairs room, which was devoid of furniture. She was lying upon her right side, her face in a pool of blood. Torn in her forehead was a large hole where the bullet had entered at a downward angle, causing instant death. The gun lay a few feet away. Ralph's father and his brother. Milo Undsley, of Bluffton, wens to Sturgis last Friday. They believe that .he death was purely self-imposed as Mrs. Lindsley had attempted to commit suicide on another occasion. Ralph met his wife while both were in service during the world war. Ralph was connected with a hospital unit and Mrs. Lindsley was a nurse. Her home was in Canada. They I were married soon after the close of i the war. They lived for a time on | a farm in Hartford township and later wept into the northeast to reside near her mother, Mrs, Anna Fairweather They returned to Hartford township, however, and lived until several months ago when they moved to Michigan. Recently they had been living about five miles from Sturgis and Ralph had been working at the Sturgis foundry, driving to and from work each day. The body was taken to Rurr Oak. Michigan, where funeral services were held yesterday. Burial took place at Burr Oak, also. Mrs. Lindsley is survived by her mother, her husband, and one brother.
