- 12 Apr 1887 PFP obituary read: On last Monday morning at about
ten o'clock Frank P. Gould shot and instantly killed his wife,
Mrs. Ella M. Gould, at the residence of her mother, Mrs. A.
Rulison, in this city. As many of our readers know, Gould and
his wife separated several weeks ago at Kansas City, Mrs.
Gould, accompanied by her three young children, coming to
Burlingame. A week or two after Mrs. Gould's arrival in this
city her husband also came here and on Monday morning he called
to see his wife at the residence of her mother with a view, it
is thought, of bringing about a reconciliation, between them.
The shooting occurred at about ten o'clock in the forenoon in
the dining room at Mrs. Rulison's home. The weapon used was an
American bulldog revolver of thirty eight caliber,. Two shots
were fired, striking the unfortunate victim in the left side,
one of the balls passing through the heart from which death
occurred instantly. After the shooting Gould went to the
Shepart House, entering the hotel office with the revolver
still in his hand. Mr. Collins, Captain Delemater, W. D.
Canfield and P. A. Sutton were in the office, to whom Gould
remarked that he had "killed his wife." Mr. Delamater at once
took possession of the revolver and Gould was placed under
arrest. He made no effort to escape and offered no resistance
when arrested. His preliminary examination took place before
Justice Chambers and he was committed to jail, the officers
conveying him to Lyndon Monday afternoon. The funeral of Mrs.
Gould took place yesterday afternoon from the Methodist Church,
the remains being buried in the Burlingame Cemetery. The
funeral services were conducted by A. W. Lawrence, who
delivered a most impressive sermon to a large congreation of
sympathizing friends.
Mrs. Gould was twenty four years old and was married to Frank
Gould nine years ago. She leaves three little children, their
names and ages being as follows; Millie, aged seven years,
Earl, aged five and Freddie three years. An aged mother and
several brothers and sisters are also left to mourn the death
of Mrs. Gould and to them, and the three innocent children, the
sincere sympathy of our citizens will be freely given. Our
community is greatly shocked in consequence of this very sad
event. Nothing of this character has ever before occurred in
Burlingame and to those of our citizens who have for years been
intimately acquainted with Frank Goud this terrible act of his
seems like a dream. it will not be denied that he dearly loved
his wife and this three bright little children and this fact
makes it all the more difficult to understand how he could have
committed such a horrible crime. May God have mercy on him!
