The Hannibal Journal November 23, 1848
Murder and Robbery. -- Just as we were going to press, we received information 
that Maj. Singer, Paymaster of the U. S. Army, was murdered and robbed in 
Salina county a few days since.  He had in his possession $160,000 and was on 
his way in the upper part of this State to pay the volunteers their three 
months extra pay.  His wife and sister-in-law were in company with him, who 
were also murdered.  It is supposed he was murdered by the soldiers who were 
acting as an escort. [St. Joseph Gazette.
