History of Indiana and Grant Country (p. 722).: “Elias Hiatt, farmer, Fairmount, is a native of Fayette Co., O. and was born Oct. 8, 1828. His parents were William and Jemima (Londy). Hiatt. They were among the early settlers of Madison Co., Ind., where they followed agricultural pursuits and resided until their death. Our subject was raised upon a farm, receiving in youth a limited education. At an early age he began life’s battle on his own responsibility as a farm hand, and in 1857 came to Grant Country, where he has since resided. Mr. Hiatt is one of the wide-awake and enterprising farmers of this township, and is the owner of 120 acres of well improved land, is now comfortably situated, a result attained through his own exertions. May 17, 1856 he was united in marriage with Miss Hannah Hunt, who was born August 10, 1839, a daughter of Wilson and Millicent Hunt, who were natives of NC., and early settlers of Wayne Co., Ind. (Here folows the names and dates of birth of their children, which will be omitted to aviod duplication - editor.) The parents are members of the German Baptist Church.” (R73).

An interesting note on Robert Dickey Jr. He as well as his brother Christopher, was a victum of Mental Illness and both were in mental hospitals on and off. Robert Dickey Jr downed in the Whitewater River in Richmond, Ind. during the night. It could not be determined if it was accidental or suicide.Under the Ice
January 14, 1886
Robert Dickey's Unhappy Death
Found drowned and frozen in the River.
Dying Away from Home and amoung strangers.
Was it an Accident, or an Insane Man's SuicideThis morning, a little before 7 o'clock a man came to Officer Betzold's house with the information that the body of a man was unde rthe ice, near the National bridge. The officer hurried to the scene, at once, and found that a number of the workmen had already arrived.
Emil Mink, the brewer, has been cutting ice at this point in the river, which is eight feet or more deep, and all day yesterday the men were at work but noticed no stranger about, and when they quit work in the evening no one was around the place. In cutting ice what is known as a channel is made and through this the cakes of ice are floated to the place where they are taken out of the water. This channel is about twenty-four inches wide. Under the newly frozen ice over this channel could be seen the body of a man, his back humped up and part of the hair on his head, on which was still his hat, in plain sight. At the moment , from his clothing, he was supposed to be John Fitzmorris, of Sevastopol, or Alexander, the wood sawyer, but when he was cut out this was found to be a mistake. The body was taken out and carried to Downing's undertaking establishment and Coroner Bond notified. A search of the dead man's clothing showed a number of papers, amound them being a nore, written at Elwood, Ind. August 27, payable to John McClerney, and signed by Ambrose and Robert Dickey. There was also a receipt givent to Robert Dickey by A.J. Hiatt at Anderson. The body was that of a man about sixty years old, five feet five inches tall, and would weigh 140 pounds. He had a new
pocket-book, in which was two or three dollars in money. The Telegram at once sent a dispatch to Elwood, and at 9 o'clock received the following reply from Roy Hannah, a reporter of the Elwood Free Press.
"Robert Dickey, a wealthy farmer aged sixty years, living 1 1/2 miles south east of Rigdon, Ind. went crazy from the third time and escaped from his family yesterday, and took the train at Frankton for Fayette County."
Robert Dickey is a man of considerable wealth, and is very well known all over Madison County. Rigdon is a little place about the size of Centreville, situated in the north part of that county not far from Elwood. Dickey for several years has been a little off in his mind, not violent, but rather of a morose and wandering nature, so much so that he has had to be constanly watched. The operator at Elwood had been instructed to watch for him and not allow him to get on the trains, as he was not in his right mind, but he eluded the watchers and took the train at Frankfort, ten miles nearer Anderson.
We learn this afternoon from Anderson that Dickey has a family of four children, and that his mind has been so seriously affected that he has been for periods at four different times in the insane asylum. The cause of his
derangement is said to have been originally religious excitement. Word of his death has been sent to his family from Anderson.
Theories
There are but two theories. One that he wandered to the river some time during the night and walked into the channel, and the other that he deliberately committed suicide; the latter, however, is not probable. From his position he went into the water feet first, and coming up he caught under the ice and could not release himself. The ice over him in the channel was nearly an inch thick and yet his body was not perfectly rigid when found. This is the strangest part of it. The thickness of the ice would indicate that he had been in the water sometime, while the lack of perfect rigidity would go to prove that he had not been in the water as long as the thickness of the ice would indicate.
When he came to Richmond is not definitely known. A man answering his description got off Conductor Railsback's train last evening and asked Harry McGuire when he could get a train to Connersville. This man was seen in front
of the Huntington House last night be a Telegram reporter, who could not, however identify him as the man whose corpose was found in the river.Committed Suicide
Coroner Bond this afternoon stated that unless other evidence was brought before him his verdict would be that Dickey committed suicide. He was satisfied that he had made no effort to get out of the water, that he could have saved himself had he so wished, but instead he had deliberately drowned himself and it was insanity that caused it.
The body is still at Downing's and will not be sent to Eldwood until the authorities are satisfied beyound all doubt that the remains are those of Mr. Dickey.
Charley Purnell says that the dead man stopped at his place last evening and purchased some tobacco and acted rather strange, so much so as to be noticeable.
It is likely that there will be some one in from Elwood on the evening train and then the mystery willbe cleared up.January 15, 1886
Hallucination
The whole trouble with Robert Dickey
The remains identified by his friends last evening
Some of the Strange Freaks of the Unfortunate Suicide
The Telegram yesterday gave all the particulars of the unhappy death of Robert Dickey, whose corpse was found under the ice and there is little left to say, save to speak of some of the strange freaks of the man, which go to prove
that Coroner Bond's theory of suicide is well founded. Dickey, until a week or so ago has been all right, but about Saturday last he seemed to be "getting off" again, and though his family watched him closely, he managed to elude them and get here, as related in yesterday's paper.Insanity Hereditary
Insanity is hereditary in the Dickey family, Mr. Robert Dickey having been in the asylum twice and his brother, Columbus Dickey having been there also. Robert's mania is a strange one. He imagined that the world was coming to an end by fire, and that he was the savior to whom all must give way. When suffering from his mania he made a break for water and would get into it if possible. On one occasion when taken to the asylum at Indianapolis, he made a
great deal of fuss becasue the other inmates would not clear out and give him entire possession of the palce. Another time he got away from his family and the whole country was out after him. A man chase him on horseback for
seventeen miles, and Robert was so fleet of foot that he escaped.He never Smiled
The most intimate friends of Mr. Dickey never knew him to smile or laugh. His face was as stolid as an Indian's and could not be coaxed into the least sign of merriment. he was not cross or peevish, but apparently indifferent. He would go to Elwood or Anderson, do his trading and return home without having much to say or taking any part in the affairs of the town, political or social. Yet he was kind hearted good-natured and charitable, honest and worthy.Religious Excitement
The last time that he was takne from the asylum the superintendent told his friends that they must keep him from being excited over religious matters, or his mind would give way again. During the fall and winter Madison county
has had a great many revivals, Mrs. Woodworth and other evangilies were up there and held meetings in various parts of the county in his neighborhood Mr. Dickey toook an active part in these meetings, and those who know him best say
that it was religious excitement that weakened the poor old man's mind and sent him to his death.The End of the World
Coroner Bond's idea and it is a plausible one is that Mr. Dickey in his demented state wandered to the west part of the city and seeing the lights on the hill, broke for the river, believing that a wave of fire was coming, and to save himself from being burned deliberately jumped into the hole in the ice and was drowned. On this, as stated yesterday, he bases his verdict of suicide while insane.Taken Home
Last eveing Peter Lance, a merchant of Elwood and Dory Biddle, city editor of the Anderson Bulletin, arrived in the city, and quickly identified the remains as those of Robert Dickey. They had the body properly prepared, Mr. Downing looking after all the details in his unual careful manner, and at 10 o'clock this morning the body was taken hom to Rigdon, where it will be buried tomorrow morning.
