April 14, 1915 Freeport, Harrison Co., OH MRS. JENNIE CRAAMBLETT, wife of Joseph Cramblett, living near Birmingham, Guernsey county, committed suicide Friday afternoon by hanging herself in an out-building near her home. Mrs. Cramblett had been in ill health for some time and had been in the asylum but was brought home last fall, as her condition showed considerable improvement. Recently she became worse and arrangements were being made to again take her to an institution for treatment. It was feared that she was contemplating self destruction and she was therefore kept under close observation. Friday afternoon Mr. Cramblett left his wife for a short time to go to a field near the house to do a little plowing. Toward evening, he returned and a grandson who makes his home with the Crambletts reported to his grandfather that his grandmother was not in the house. Mr. Cramblett went into the building and after a through search failing to find his wife, with the assistance of the grandson, began to search the premises. The body of the wife was found hanging on a rope fastened to a rafter in the roof of an outbuilding. Neighbors were notified and with their assistance the body was cut down and removed to the house. She was about 66 years of age. She is survived by her husband and one son HERMAN BEAN ; together with one brother, ELIJAH BEAN, and two sisters, MRS. EMILY MORRISON of Guernsey county and MRS. WAYBLE, living in the northern part of the state. She was the daughter of HARVEY BEAN, deceased. Funeral services were held Sunday at Pleasant Hill Church followed by interrment in the Church cemetery. The service was conducted by Rev. Wilson of Peoli, assisted by Rev. King of Winterset. ***
