The sheriff's department at Machias identified the dead as Albert Richardson, 74, Aubrey Ackley, 45, and Mrs Eunice Ackley, 52, whose husband Howard died about one week ago. Authorities were not sure immediately what relation Mrs Ackley was to Aubrey Ackley. A neighbor reported the deaths to the sheriffs's department at Machias. No other details were available immediately. He appeared in the following News Article from the Chronical Telegram on 6 Jan 1960 in Elyria, Lorain , Ohio DOWN EAST TRAGEDY LINKED TO LONELINESS WHITING, Maine (UPI)- "Down Easters," as they call rural Maine folk, aren't much for small talk of show. A "yup" or a "nope" can answer most any question put to them by outsiders. Down Easters aren't ones to display their emotions on their sleeves either. But it's usually there, hidden beneath a leathery New England reserve. Albert Richardson was like that. Spare, slightly bent from years of digging clams and quahaugs (chowder clams) where the Atlantic Ocean rippled up to this northeastern Maine hamlet- 10 miles from the Canadian border- the 74-year-old Richardson wasn't a talkative person. He had led a lonely, solitary life. He had few close friends. One of them was Howard Ackley, with whom he had boarded for seven years. Ackley died eight days ago after a brief illness. Richardson said little at the time, but felt as though he had lost a part of his life. Richardson was waiting Tuesday at Ackley's widow's house for her brother-in-law to drive him clam digging. The brother-in-law Aubrey Ackley, 45, was late. Richardson began to fidget. Then things seemed to press in on him. Still no ride. Howard Ackley wouldn't have been so late, Richardson may have thought to himself. Finally, Aubrey appeared, but by then it was to late. Normally quiet Albert Richardson was blind with rage. He grabbed a .45 caliber automatic pistol and a 30-30 rifle and started shooting. " Richardson had been very upset since Howard Ackley died" said Sheriff Raymond J Tracey later. " When Aubrey failed to pick him up at the time he promised, the old man just blew up…" A few minutes later, Mrs. Eunice Ackley, 52 and Aubrey Ackley lay dead from Richardson's barrage. A few yards away in a woodshed, was Richardson's body with a self-inflicted rifle shot in his head. He was buried in Jan 1960 in Whiting, Washington , Maine.618 He has Death Cert # 60008602197 He served in the military WW II & Korea in the US Army.618,1749 Murdered By Albert Richardson Never Married retired U.
