MOUNTAINSIDE DRAMA.
DEATH IN RECONCILIATION. Dramatic evidence was given at an inquiry in May by the pretty young Russian wife of John Daniels, an exnSval officer, who died on a.Welsh mountain while walking with her. On the night of her husband's death, Mrs. Daniels told the coroner, they met for the first time after two months' separation caused by domestic differences. They were walking together over the mountain, and both confessed they were very lonely without each other. "Wo kissed," Mrs. Daniels said, "and decided to live together. We were sitting down laughing and joking, when my husband was taken ill. He tried to say something, but : failed, . and I cried, 'Speak, speak !' T screamed for, help, and wo were carried down the' mountain side to his mother's, where he died." A verdict of death due to hemorrhage was returned.
