Friends tried to help as he relayed debts of about 70 thousand dollars against a property valued at 250 thousand. Neighbors helped search, and the body was recovered from the well around 2 AM. Ashe left a wife and nine children, with two cadets at the Citadel. He founded the Yorkville mill and led its growth since 1882, becoming the principal mover behind the enterprise.
