Lancaster Daily Intelligencer. (Lancaster, Pa.) 1864-1928 February 4, 1880
Reading, Pa., Feb. 4. At a late hour last night Peter Nagle, an elderly man, made a
desperate attempt to murder Mrs. Shocksell, a widow with whom he was boarding. He
was in love with Mrs. Shocksell, and learning that another man had visited her last
evening, he struck her on the head twice with a hatchet. He then cut his own throat
with a butcher knife. He died at 9:30 this morning. There are hopes of Mrs.
Shocksell's recovery.
