From the Wyalusing Rocket Wednesday, Oct. 11, 1905 Murder-Suicide. Perry Wheeler kills his wife (Mary) monday morning and then turns the revolver against himself. Perry Wheeler, aged about 55 years, deliberately killed his wife at the home of his son Floyd, on Vaughn Hill at 7 o'clock Monday morning, and after comleting the job turned the revolver against himself and blew out his own brains. The history of the crime is about as follows: Perry had been jealous of his wife for a long time and about two months ago went to the home of his son on Vaughn Hill, and after having some angry words with his wife he tried to cut her throat with a razor. At that time he called her into a bedroom and as soon as he got her away from the rest of the family, threw her upon the bed. She called for help and her children came to the rescue. In getting the razor away from Perry, the daughter Amelia, had both hands and wrist badly cut. Perry also took the team belonging to his son and taking the horses to Athens, sold one of the animals to Job Griffin. The son, at that time, swore out a warrant for the father's arrest, and it was for these two crimes that the local officers have been looking for him ever since. Perry Wheeler first went to Waverly, New York, where he had friends, but later went to Michigan before the officers could get trace of him. Sunday night he returned and passed the night in an ice house just across the road from the house where he awaited an opportunity to commit his crime. The chance did not come until 7 o'clock on Monday morning when Mrs. Wheeler crossed the road to feed the pigs. As soon as she got to the pig pen, it is supposed that Perry jumped from his hiding place, revolver in hand, to do the premeditated murder. At his first appearance the woman shouted for help, but before the children arrived, the deed had been committed. Perry undoubtedly grabbed his wife with his left arm, which he threw around her neck, and with his right hand, in which was the weapon, he held the revolver close to her neck, and pulled the trigger. To carry out this solution of the crime, powder marks were found upon Mrs. Wheeler's neck where the bullet entered and upon the fingers of his left hand. The man then turned the revolver against himself and pulled the trigger. Floyd Wheeler, the son, was the only one that heard his mother's call for help. He was in the lower barn milking the cows when his mother called and the gun was fired, and he immediately started for the house where he suppopsed the call came from. As he got to the road he could see nothing unusual at the house, but whils standing there he saw his father coming from the pig house and running towards him, and his mother on the ground, bleeding from the nose and mouth. His father had then returned and seated himself near his victim. Floyd at once started for the nearest neighbor, L.C. Overton's and telephoned for help. Before he had gone far, he heard the second shot, the one that the father had turned on himself. Esquire Smith and Dr. Terry , responding to the call, went to the scene of the crime, but of course nothing could be done for the injured and a Coroner's jury was not deemed necessary as the facts of the case were very thoroughly known. The bullet entered Mrs. Wheeler's neck o ne left side just under the jaw and passed from there to the base of the brain. Wheeler held the revolver against the back of his right ear. making a terrible hole, from which the brains were oozing when he was picked up. The bullet did not come out of his head. He never regained consciousness after the crime and lived only two hours, dying at about 9 o'clock. The weapon used was an Ivers Johnson 32 caliber revolver, holding five cartridges, three of which had been fired. Two unused cartridges remained in the gun. On Perry Wheeler's clothes were found several letters. On the back of one to him from his wife was a letter explaining the reason for the deed. It read as follows: "This day i sit alone a weeping without a home becaus my onely son helped to drive me away i am tired of living any longer and i will put an end to all trobel on earth my wicked son Floyd helped that old Brute to bring this wicked crime upon me. Perry Wheeler"
