I remember doing this story in middle school. However, there were two versions of the story. The first version was actually "the story of an hour". The second version was all from the husband's point of view as he walks home from work,worrying about how Mrs. Mallard is doing alone. He then comes home to watch his wife die in front of him. Any of this sound familiar?

This would be an interesting pairing, but I have never heard of that story.  If you find it, do let us know!  I would love a copy to use in conjunction with this story.  It's fascinating to have different perspectives on a topic.

Are you thinking about the story about the man who plans his wife's murder on his 40th birthday--only to find out that she has arranged a surprise party for him? I can't remember the title but will look it up for you.

I think in this story, Mr. Mallard is oblivious to his wife's feelings; otherwise, she might not be so happy to be free of him.

Like i said, i'm a little hazy on the details. But i don't think that's the story i'm thinking about. however, if you can find a link to it, i'll be able to tell you if it's it or not.
