In March 1834 Luke Phipps, a Detroit billiard room proprietor aged about 44, shot and killed his wife on a ferry to Windsor after learning of her suspected infidelity. He fled to Canada, escaped Sandwich jail, nearly died in a grave, and was eventually recaptured in Pullman Illinois and extradited to Canada. He was hanged at Sandwich jail in November 1884 after a tumultuous manhunt and sensational prison escapes involving accomplices Greenfield and Callaghan.
