Dead Body of "Calt" Ackley Found
The badly decomposed body of "Calt" Ackley 58 years old was found near Hiramsburg, Sunday by a passerby. The condition of the body indicated that he had been dead for a week or ten days. Sheriff Moore, acting in the capacity of coroner, was summoned and went to the scene. An investigation of the body revealed a crushed skull, broken shoulder and other bruises. He was lying at the foot of a cliff of rocks some 25 feet high and must have fallen over the same producing the injuries from which he died. Mr. Ackley has been known to be mentally deranged for some time. He had gone away from home some two weeks ago and persistent search failed to locate him. The supposition is that he wondered to this place, lay down to sleep or fell over the rocks some way producing death. Undertaker Dye, of Belle Valley, was summoned and took charge of the body. Deceased wandered away from home about three years ago and was gone several days but finally came to himself down in Kentucky and returned home voluntarily. He is well known here and was a quiet, peacable citizen. He is a brother of Luther Ackley of Sharon. He leaves a family of children surviving at Lowell, O.

He appeared in the census 1870, 1880, 1900, 1910 & 1920 in Ohio. 1880 census spells name Calton He appeared in the following News Article from the Calvin W. Ackley, aged fifty eight years, residing near Lowell, demented at time for years past, disappeared from his home a week or two ago and no trace of his whereabouts could be ascertained by his friends. Diligent search was made for him without result. Last Sunday afternoon while Wayne Stout and wife were roaming the country between Hiramsburg and Ava in search of wild flowers they were horrified upon finding the dead body of a man who had fallen over a ledge of rocks about thirty feet in height. The body was in a badly decomposed state and after the arrival of Sheriff Charles Moore and others the body was identified as being that of Ackley. The body was taken in charge by an undertaker and prepared for burial and the next day was taken to the home of the deceased for burial. He is survived by his wife and two children. Some years ago he left his home in a demented condition and coming to his mind found himself to be somewhere in Kentucky.
