Shirling, W. H. - 1860
Murder.-- On Sunday evening, about half-past 8 o'clock, two boys names White, while coming home from church, in Great Bank, Monmouth, county, (N. J.) found a horse and wagon standing in the rear of Mr. Eccle's store. The horse was in a perfect lather of sweat, apparently much fatigued. In the wagon the boys found a man lying on his back dead, with two bullet holes in his body.
It is presumed that he was a pedler <sic> of patent medicines, as his wagon was labelled <sic> “Shirling's Cure-All Salve, Newtown,” and quite a quantity of the medicine was found in the wagon. He was dressed in a suit of black, wore a silver patent lever watch, and had fifty dollars in cash in his pocket. In one of his medicine chests was a double-barrel loaded pistol; and by his side in the wagon was a six-shooter with two chambers discharged.--
Deceased was apparently about forty-five years of age, and had the letters W. H. S. marked on his clothes, from which it is supposed he was Shirling the medicine man himself.
