sud den Death.

The wife Of Lewis Holland, an engi
neer residing at No. 1899 Lombard
street, died quite suddenly about four
o'clock yesterday afternoon, from
hemorrhage Of the lungs. 1t appears
that she had slight attacks before, but
paid no attention to them, but when
the bleeding became profuse yesterday
she called to neighbor, who imme-
diately sent for DIR. Mann, 619 East
Tenth street, who hastened 10 the
house. When he arrived he found that
the unfortunate woman was beyond
human aid, and she expired in short
time. When Mrs. Holland was seized
with the henorrhage she was alone
with a seventeen months old baby, her
husband having started for Atlantic
City yesterday morning In search OF
work. The neighbors did everything
that was possible until the arrival OF
the deceased's brcther.in-law, Mr.. M.
T. Oannenberg, who took charge of the
house until the husband, who was i'm
mediately sent for, returns. Mrs. Hol'
land was about thirty years Of age, and
was the second wife Mr.. Holland has
lost in that house with the same
disease.
