LOS ANGELES, June 19 - C.V. MacFarlane, a salesman, formerly of Vancouver, British Columbia, whose body was found in his offices here late yesterday, took his own life, police detectives said today after physicians had made an examination and discovered powder burns about the bullet wound in MacFarlnes’s head. A pistol was found a short distance away. MacFarlane had been married only six weeks. Friends told police that he was a brother of William MacFarlane, national open golf champion. [Comrie had no brother William. Maybe a more distant relative.]
