MRS. HANSON BRIDGE KILLED.
A telegram was received this afternoon by Marshal Otto Olson, from C. B. Phelps, assistant superintendent of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad saying that Mrs. Hanson Bridge had jumped from a passenger train near Nashville, Tenn., yesterday, and received injuries from which she died today. Mr. and Mrs. Bridge had decided to return to Decorah to live and Mr. Bridge was on his way with a carload of goods, Mrs. Bridge following by passenger train. No explanation of the matter is given.
Mrs. Bridge is a sister of Mrs. Robt. P. Greer, of this city, and she and her husband went south about a year ago to make their home.
