Event date: Aug 19, 1881
The wife of Geo. W. Burnham, who left him some time since to live with a “handsomer man,” came to the house where Burnham resides and, aided by a male accomplice, undertook to carry off her 12 year old daughter during Burnham’s absence; but the girl offered so much resistance that after taking her as far as the “little bridge” in New Hampshire, they let her go and she returned home.
