The Inter Ocean [Chicago IL] August 28, 1877
Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 27.-At Saint Paris, Ohio, about 5 o'clock this 
morning, a shoemaker named Louis Dash attempted to murder his wife by cutting 
her throat with a razor, and afterward cut his own throat, severing the 
jugular vein, and died at 9 o'clock. Mrs. Dash is still alive, but cannot 
recover. Dash has been a hard drinker for the past five or six years, and it 
is supposed was under the influence of liquor at the time of the murder.  Two 
children, aged 8 and 12 years, were sleeping in the room at the time and were 
awakened by the struggle, and gave the alarm.
