From the January 25, 1891 Brooklyn Daily Eagle:

Pittsburgh, Pa.–The shooting of Mrs. W. J. Faulk by her husband yesterday, in a fit of religious enthusiasm, has resulted in a warrant being issued for one George Knauff, as an accessory before the fact. Faulk declares his religious insanity was inspired by the hypnotic influence of Knauff, who claimed to be another Messiah and ordered him to kill his wife. This Faulk did, and officers are now hunting Knauff, who has disappeared.”
