Crawfordsville Weekly Journal Sat, Nov 21, 1891 -- "Help me! Help me! My husband wants to kill me," was the cry of a woman on the streets of Covington Tuesday evening. It was the wife of Wm. Milligan, a hard working house mover who lately moved there from this town, though he had only lived here a short time, having moved from Stone BLuff. She was sent to Prosecutor Bingham for the necessary protection and had hardly reached his office when a cry of fire was made. It was found that their residence was on fire. William had piled the household goods in the center of the room and set them on fire and was standing on the outside watching them burn. Good citizens soon extinguished the flame and William was marched to mail. He had a hearing before Mayor Martin and placed under $1,000 bond, in default of whih he was sent to jail to await the action of the court. William has one bad fault, he drinks too much and don't know when to stop. He is a good-hearted fellow, don't mean to do anyone harm and if his wife was as good a woman as he is a man, they certainly would live a much happier life, at least that is our opinion. Veedersburgh News. Mr. Milligan until recently lived in Crawfordsville. He seems to have been on the fly since leaving.
