His extensive property included a mansion and eighty acres of farmland that were maintained by a staff of servants. In 1854, Wickham got into an argument with one of his workers, Nicholas Behan, after Behan harassed another employee who refused to marry him.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeveral days after Behan's dismissal, he crept back into the house in the dead of night.
