Horrific West 30th Street Massacre Shocked New York
A detailed report from New York describes a brutal family murder and attempted killings on West 30th Street. The oldest son, Frank Gouldy, 19, killed his father and attacked his mother and siblings with a hatchet before apparently dying by suicide. Multiple family members were injured, with the two young sons dead and others gravely hurt or dying. The case drew police into the house as physicians treated the victims and investigated motive believed to be revenge over alleged theft by Frank. A subsequent account notes Mrs Gouldy’s fragile condition and other servants’ injuries, with survivor Elizabeth Carr recounting the attack. The report closes with an unrelated anecdote about a Cleveland tombstone salesman and a grieving man, illustrating local newspaper humor.
