The death of Cornelius B. Acker occurred on Wednesday, June 25, at a nursing home in Kingston, Kings County, following a long illness. The deceased was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Acker of Lake Pleasant, and was born at Hunter's Lodge, 86 years ago. His wife, who was Miss Rosana Mailman before marriage, predeceased him some years ago. Surviving are three daughters: Loverta , Mrs. Layton Conrad, Stanburne; Eldora, Mrs. William Perkins, Middleton; Janice, Mrs. Laurie Ernst, Ontario; four sons, Harold, Springfield; Pearlie, Kingston; Eldon, Halifax; Banford, Lake Pleasant.
