Monterey. Special to the Sentinel: Moses KALEY, an old gentleman living in the western part of Aubbeenaubbee township, was accidently killed Thursday by the falling of a large red oak tree which he was cutting for rail timber. No one being present at the time of the accident the manner in which Mr. Kaley came to his death is taken from the observations of those who came to take away the body which they found lying beneath the trunk of the tree. The tree had a large limb a few feet from where it was cut off and in falling on the limb caused it to spring and fly back, striking Mr. Kaley on the left arm, terribly lacerating it, knocking him down and falling on his breast, in which position he was found by Mr. LONG at about 3 p.m. Mr. Kaley probably had been dead for three or four hours as his dinner which he had taken to the woods was still untouched. Mr. Kaley leaves a wife and five grown children to mourn his loss.
Moses Kaley was born in West Beaver township, Snyder county, Penn., July 6, 1830, and died March 16, 1892, aged 61 years 8 months and 10 days.
Deceased removed to Ohio Jan 6, 1863, was united in marriage with Sarah Ann RITTER, May 7, 1863, to whom were born seven children, two of which have preceded him to the spirit world.
In 1874 he removed to Fulton county, Ind. He was a kind and indulgent husband and father. A respected and honored citizen and neighbor.
