Is YearS-PersOnalS, Etc.

MARCH THE Minneapolis, Minnesota,
Evening Tribune, of February %, gives the
following account of the meeting of two broth
ers: &c Hamilton Hahn and VIM. H. Hahn,
two brothers, who. for Is years, lived in Min
neapolis without meeting each other are happy
men. They are planning many good times and
it is possible may decide TO live together in the
future. W. H. Hahn, patrolman of the fifth
precinct station, when seen by Tribune seemed
to be fairly bubbling over with JOY. just 10
think have lived in this city with him, have
passed him dozens of times and even have
spoken to him without knowing he was my
brother. 1t seems almost Impossible that such
could be The case. Now that we have met we
are going to have good times. We are going TO
live like brothers should live, and ! do not
intend to ever again lose sight of him.
&C. Hamilton Hahn, when seen at the home
of C. A. Mulligan, 1921 North Aldrich avenue,
where be has been boarding and rooming for
some time, was just AS happy over the pleasant
reunion. He says: have been in this city
for Is years and during nine of those years
drove an ice wagon for James Dryer. the ice
man. My route took ME to all parts of the
city even into the neighborhood where my
brother lives. yet in spite of this never knew of
his presence in the city. In fact, didn't konw
whether or not he still lived. ! knew there
were several Hahns in the city. aud had heard
of policeman Hahn, but never suspected
that the policeman was my brother. Several
years ago | received a letter from my sister, in
Maryland. and did not answer it until few
months ago. When she in turn wrote me
again. She told Of the presence of my brother
in this city. This was three weeks ago. did
not at once investigate, and it was not until
two days ago that | once more shook hands
with my brother"
