Manchester, March 19.-The death Of
Mrs. John Houlihan, of Bernard, Du-
buque county. has brought to light a
story which was filled with drama and
pathos to an extreme. The death,
which was sudden, was flashed to her
husband, who in the most peculiar
circums tances endeavored to reach the
bedside of his bride of less than year,
and Of his failure, on account of a
swollen stream and wrecks in Min
neSota.
About a month ago Houlihan left
his Iowa home for Dakota, where he
expected to build suitable buildings for
the removal of his young wife. At the
time he wrote home last week for his
wife to come to South Dakota, she was
taken suddenly i'll at Bernard. Tele-
grams sent to the husband failed to
reach their destination. Finally mes
sage was sent to a former Dubuque
boy. who was unable to cross the swol-
len Cheyenne river, and was forced to
yell his message across the river by
means of megaphone.
Houlihan at once set out, securing a
pony and fording the raging Cheyenne
at the risk Of his own life, taking the
train at Sturgis, s.. D.. for Winona,
Mimi. where he learned that wreck
would delay him for several hours.
Telephone communication , with his
Iowa home was secured When he was
informed of his wife's death. The man
fell to the floor of the depot uncon-
scious, and for time was thought to
be in serious condition, but was able
to reach home in time for the funeral
which was one Of the largest attended
in that section for years.
