Callahan afterwards married, and died February 24, 1886, but his designation was not changed. The fund on his death was claimed by Mrs. Callahan, and also by the administratrix of the estate of Mr. Callahan’s widow, it bemng claimed that, as Catherine Callahan was not a *“dependent” upon her son,she should could not take the fund.
