I'd just be happy at the 'killed by a cannonball' bit. I'd stop at firing her.

Also, the body ambiguously purports that she was "...killed by a cannonball fired by her husband..." and she was also killed by another man. What was this other man's weapon? Maybe the husband was firing a cannon at the murderous other man, accidentally striking his wife?

What ever happened to journalists with command over the language? Cannons make a squib, but this article is squibbal.
