HONEYMOON TRAGEDY
OTTAWA, January 28.
While a trapper named Wilson and his bride were spending their honeymoon in a district in the far north of Ontario, the trapper left his log hut home and did not return.
His wife, half mad owing to her husband's disappearance, set out on snow shoes for the nearest settlement. She was found by Mr Wilson's comrade almost half dead in the snow. Her hair was completely white. Wolves attempted to attack her during her two days' journey through the snow. Her husband has not been found, and it is believed that wolves have devoured him.
