'WIFE'S BLOOD DOES
NOT Save HUSBAND
Claude E. Spence Dies Despite
Heroic Sacrifice of His
Spouse

OAKLAND, Aug. 22.-Letting her
lifes blood go drop by drop in the
heroic effort to save her husband from
death, Mrs. Claude E. Spence, whose
husband was crushed between freight
cars last Saturday evening, saw her
brave sacrifice avail nothing. for
Spence died early this. morning at the
spite of the fact that his physicians,
transferring his wifes blood into his
veins, took so much from the little
woman that she, too. collapsed and for
a time her life was thought to be in
danger.
1t was recognized soon after Spence
arrived at the hospital that his case
was desperate one and that heroic
measures were necessary. He was bad
ly mangled, he had lost much blood
and his vitality was at low ebb. Yes
terday Doctors Hani1in and Irwin de-
cided that a TRANSMISSION of blood from
living person into his veins was
needed to sage him. They told Mrs
Spence so, and she volunteered to let
them take her blood.
The operation was performed last
night. Spence and his wife were placed
side by side on cot, but with Mrs.
Spence's head at her husbands feet
The radial artery of her left wrist was
opened and the blood from it was
transmitted to a vein of his left arm.
Spence was pale as chalk when the
TRANSMISSION of blood began. Little by
little, rs the warm blood of his wife
was poured into his veins. a glow
spread over his face and his pulse
quickened. The physicians took much
blood from Mrs. Spence, and when the
operation was ended it looked as
though her husband had a chance for
life. Mrs. Spence, however was un-
conscious.
She was unable to leave the hospital
until today, so weakened was she by
her ordeal. No serious consequences
are feared in her case now. however.
Meanwhile Spence's condition, at first
promising, grew worse. At l o'clock
this morning he suffered q relapse and
after that he sank rapidly and died.
Spence was employed as a switchman
by the Southern Pacific company and
lived at 107 Chase street. He was at
work Saturday in the company's yards
when two cars bumped together and
pinned him between them.
