Summary
"Lazarus Zellerbach was brutally murdered in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, on February 6th. His body was found on the west side of town by boys playing 21 days later. He was a peddler based out of Philadelphia who made two trips a year to Pittsburgh and even into Ohio. Testimony at the trial of the murderers reveal that he arrived into New York City in 1835 with his parents. They lived near the Balz and Rhine Rivers.He was not married. He left Philadelphia five months ago and was in Pittsburgh 10 weeks earlier. He was headed back home having sold out of his goods. Typically he would have had approximately $1000 on him. A reward of almost $500 was offered. Henry Kobler Musselman was arrested and convicted. His "servant" Lewis Willman turned States's evidence and testified against him. Musselman hit Lazarus on the head with a stone, stabbed him over 15 times and tossed his body over a fence. Musselman was hung on December 20, 1839. He had sold his body to a physician for study post mortem." [from FindAGrave.com]
