Vierra Louis Jr 350712 p5
Newman Index   Death Reveals Secret Wedding; The sudden death at Santa Cruz last Sunday of Louis Vierra Jr., 22, of
Gustine, who was stricken with a hemorrhage while enjoying a day's outing at the seaside and died in a few hours, was a
dramatic close to the brief life of young Vierra.  For it was only after his death that most of his friends learned that he
leaves a wife who thus became a widow before it was generally known that she was a bride. Miss Bernice Detlefsen was
united to Vierra in a marriage knot tied at Tia Juana, in Mexico, in April of this year.  It is understood that the parents had
been told of the marriage, but it was not made public. The deceased was the son of Mr. and Mrs Louis Vierra and leaves
one brother, Frank, all of Gustine.  He had been employed at the Victoria theater as machine operator.
