Newspaper searches for NY and Pa yield zero hits.
Not even for Daniel Forsyth in Pennsylvania papers. And that would have been big news, even in Philly.

I believe that this may be a work of fiction. But it certainly would sell papers in Ohio.

I didn't proof read but Eaton and Daniel Forsyth appeared on the same pages in 501 instances that decade in new york papers for me. I'm sure Some are Coincidence , Maybe even Most, but it had to Hit New York papers

I went through the Poughkeepsie Journal. About 30 miles away, was printed in that time period, covers that area, and is available on Newspapers.com.
If that paper had nothing, especially since this would have been a MAJOR story, I doubt it happened.
I also searched the Philly papers, as this would have been news for them. Nada.

I've seen Stories from the 1800's that All the people involved Names were screwed up , Places Misspelled or Changed , Dates changed
Making it very Hard to find. Like the Story of the Treasure Found on the Susquehanna River Island

There is a Chance the Cincinatti Enquirer Reused a Story from another Decade, & Even another State..
sadly it could have been The Bloody Benders in Kansas, :(

Sometimes I wonder if the U.P. Sent these stories out
with Spaces to Fill in the Blanks where Names went :(
