The medical examiner, Dr Kenneth LaTourette, ruled Tuesday that the death of the daughter was a homicide. Robert Conary, 63, retired director of European research for Texaco, his wife and daughter had been living in Hendersonville with friends as they awaited completion of remodeling of a roomy, colonial style residence which would be their retirement home. Visiting the remodeling site on Thursday morning, Conary was stricken. He was dead on arrival at a hospital. A carpenter who reported for work at the home on Friday morning found the bodies of Mrs Conary, 58, and Susan Conary, 35, in the front seat of a family car parked in the garage. Garland Brown, chief of detectives of the sheriff’s departments, said a hose was rigged from the car’s exhaust pipe into the right side of the car. LaTourette ruled Mrs Conary died of carbon monoxide poisoning. The body of Susan Conary was sent to Chapel Hill for an autopsy which LaTourette said disclosed that she, too, died of carbon monoxide poisoning. He said the autopsy revealed no signs of violence. He said, however, he believed it unlikely the young woman would have entered the car of her own free will, had she known she was going to die. He said Miss Conary suffered from congenital heart disease.
