DR. S B ACKLEY SANITARIUM HEAD DIES SUDDENLY
SUCCUMBS FOLLOWING OPERATION AT ONOCOMOWOC,
WAS WELL KNOWN HERE
Dr S B Ackley, 58, well known in Waukesha county and in state medical circles, died on Tuesday morning at the Summit hospital, Oconomowoc, following an operation. Death was due to a disease of the bowels.
Doctor Ackley was raised in Waukesha county, his boyhood home being at Oconomowoc, where his father served in the capacity of bank president. He was well known in this city as a result of his affiliations with the Spring City sanitarium, in which institution he served as assistant to Dr Byron M Caples from 1909 to 1914.
Leaving Waukesha, he founded the Oconomowoc sanitarium which he conducted as superintendent until just recently when he sold the property and made a visit in the east among his relatives. He returned to Oconomowoc but a few days ago where he was taken ill.
Doctor Ackley was prominent in Waukesha county medical activities and served as secretary of the Waukesha County Medical society for a number of years.
Speaking of his work, Doctor Caples stated that the deceased "was a pleasant, genial type of man who had been successful in his career."
Doctor Ackley is survived by one son, a former Carroll college student, who was present at the time of his father's death. Henry gained considerable attention some years ago when he composed the prize-winning waltz for Madame Pavlowa in a nation-wide contest.
Funeral services will be held at Oconomowoc on Friday at 1 o'clock under auspices of the Masonic order.
