I simply found this while doing other research and thought it might be of interest to someone. This appeared in the Rockland (Maine) Gazette of Dec. 1, 1859: "MURDER - Wells River, NH, 25th. Franklin Wright, of Woodville, in Haverhill, N.H. killed his wife this afternoon, with a butcher knife. He is under arrest, confesses his crime, but gives no reason for it."
