The International Bridge (a train only bridge) connects Buffalo with Fort Erie, Ontario. Delahanty would indeed have been able to see the lights of Buffalo from the Canadian side of the bridge, some electric light and some candlelight. Niagara Falls is approximately 15 miles down river from the point where the International Bridge crosses the river. The current carries bodies down river until they go over the Falls. His body was found several days later at Niagara Falls, NY, thus his place of death was ruled to be at Niagara Falls.
