- The San Francisco call. (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, December 25, 1900
BOTH ARE DEAF AND DUMB
Woman Flees to the Home of a Neighbor While Her Husband Is Search for his Revolver
Special Dispatch to The Call.
SANTA ROSA, Dec. 24--William G. Oldham, a searcher of records of this city, attempted to kill his wife yesterday afternoon while in a crazed condition.
It seems Mr. Oldham met a relative of his wife at the Donahue depot on Sunday morning to get some presents the relative had for his baby boy. Mr. Oldham did not return home until late in the afternoon, when his wife asked him where he had been and why he had stayed so long. He attacked her, throwing her down and dragging her around in his attempt to choke her. He then told her he would shoot her and went to get his pistol. Mrs. Oldham then left the house and went to a neighbor's, where she told her story. A telephone message to the police station brought officers, who had quote a fight with Mr. Oldham before he was subdued. It is thought by all his friends that Mr. Oldham is suffering from a mental strain for the time, which has unbalanced his mind.
Both Mr. Oldham and his wife are deaf and dumb and both are from prominent families. He has been a searcher of records in this city for twelve years and has always been highly esteemed.
He is a brother-in-law of County Surveyor N. V. V. Smythe and has relatives living in Oakland. Mrs. Oldham's folks live in Ukiah.
