Ottoville Items - 1867

6-8-1867 DD        
                 On Friday, of last week, says the Lima Democrat, the body of a man named Ignatz Ernst was found in the
canal about one-half mile south of Ottoville. It seems he left Ottoville on Tuesday night previous somewhat
intoxicated, to return to his home three miles north of Delphos, and is supposed to have stumbled into the
canal, and was unable to get out. He was buried on Saturday. He leaves three small children between the ages
of twelve and seventeen years.
