 Upon reading recently in the Cor dova Times that Sergeant D. M. Hooker of the signal corps at Fair banks, had come to Cordova, Mrs. Bart1ey Howard was struck with sense of familiarity with the name. Before she had time to learn if he was an old acquaintance, the young ns&n was taken very ill, and was put on beard a southbound boat to be hurried to the states. By the time the ship reached Juneau his condi- tion was so serious that he was cor ried off, unconscious, to dies the next day.
