Probably used in a murder, turn it in, or you'll find yourself in trouble if you get caught with it.

38 & .32 Double-Action (1880)
S&W first designed a double-action (then termed "self-cocking") revolver in 1872 as a Model 3 variation offered to the Russian government. But commercial introduction of an S&W DA would not come until 1880 (after DAs from Colt and Forehand & Wadsworth had proved the market) in the form of a series of small-frame, 18-ounce, five-shot top-break .38 S&W and .32 S&W revolvers. These exposed-hammer top-break pocket-size DA .38s and .32s were among the most popular guns S&W ever built. Nearly a million total were sold before they were discontinued in 1919.
Value depends on condition any where from 650 to 6000.00

That sounds like a S&W Schofield revolver, but without a picture I can't be sure. If the pistol "breaks" or pivots at the bottom of the frame in front of the cylinder thus exposing the back of the cylinder for loading, then that's a Schofield revolver.
You might want to contact the S&W folks and give them the serial number of the weapon; they might be able to identify it for you.
