William Flack, the Man Killed on the Fort Wayne Road.
The man who was so horribly killed on the Fort Wayne railroad, near the 104 mile siding, midway between here and Massillon last Saturday night, has at last been positively identified. Frank Bordner, a farmer, who lives on the John Rauch farm, near Buck Hill, was in town yesterday looking for a man who was at work for him, and when taken to Dr. Leininger's office at once recognized the hat and some other articles of wearing apparel found on the body of the man killed on the railroad as those worn by a young man named William Flack, who had been in his employ all summer, and whom he was trying to find. Mr. Bordner said that Flack came into town Saturday to celebrate his birthday, and was probably in an intoxicated condition when killed.
