Death at the WeddinG-Husband and Wife
Separated Almost at the Altar.
1From the Detroit Free Press, March 81


About three weeks ago, after an ac-
ouaintance of several years, young lady
named Ishor, living with relatives on
Michigan avenue, was married in this city
to young man named Taylor, of Indian
apolis. The ceremony was hardly over
when Taylor received a telegram from
Lynn, Mass, that his aged mother was
diving, and in an hour he left the city, cal
culating to return within ten days at the
furthest. He wrote one letter back, and
Monday his bride received news thatmoth-
er and son were both dead. He was ex-
posed to the smallpox somewhere on the
route, took a severe cold, and died the day
before his mother died The wife tainted
on reading the sad news, and up to last
evening had not regained her conscious
ness, the attending physicians believing
that she will be rendered maniac by the
blow.
