Source, Ticonderoga (N.Y.) Sentinel-- Thur. Oct. 10, 1907. MURDERER AND SUICIDE AT 86. The body of Mrs. Silas Baldwin of Hampshire, ILL., reached Granville last week and was buried in Trinity churchyard beside the grave of he first husband, James Norton, and their child. Mrs. Baldwin was eighty-two years of age. Her husband, who was eighty-six years old, struck her on the head with a hammer inflicting injuries which caused her death. The hammer, covered with blood, being found in the house, suspicion pointed to the old man. When he found that he was known as the murderer he took poison, which ended his life. He was thought to be somewhat demented. Mrs. Baldwin was a former resident of Granville and Poultney. Her first husband was a brother of the late Alonso H. Norton of Granville. She leaves a sister who resides in Poultney. Transcribed by, Joan H. Bixby
