Titanic Mail Clerk’s Wife Anxiously Waits For News About Him

Washington Times

Wednesday 17 April 1912

Mrs. Lelia Woody, wife of O. S. Woody, United States mail clerk aboard the Titanic, is in Clifton, Va., today, anxiously awaiting news of the disaster, and hoping against hope he did not go down with the wrecked steamer.

Woody is well known in Washington in Masonic and Knights of Pythias circles. Since his appointment to seapost service, he had been making his headquarters in New York. Mrs. Woody is a bride of but six months. She is a niece of Mrs. Harry Warren, of 39 U street northeast, and probably will be in the city tomorrow to await news of the disaster.
