First Murder In Fayette County Revives Grim Tale From 1861

A detailed account recalls the Ostrander murder case in Auburn Township Fayette County on October 20 1861. George Ostrander killed his wife with an axe after domestic strife, attempted to stage a cow accident, and was tried in Dubuque County. He received a life sentence, and rumors persist about the prison years and the jurors. The piece also notes regional geography of the Mississippi and a local obituary and community notes.
