IN HIDING IS YEARS,
DEAD MAN FOUND.
Deserted His Family, and Search
Began When Widow" Asked
For Pension.

ST. PAUL Mimi, July 2O.-Given
up for dead by his wife and two chill
dren for more than twenty years.
Timothy Teaffe was found living In
Grand Rapids. Mimi. last week. ac-
ccordlng 10 Special Pension Examiner
4. w. Young.
Although he denied knowing any
body in Massachusetts,. where his fam
ilv lives. documentary evidence was
unearthed in his home which the ex-
aminer says establishes the fact that
he is the same Timothy Teaffe who
deserted his wife and children in Bos'
ton I'm 1875, and who has never been
seen since by former friends except
his wife, who encountered him on
Journey in 1880, and had chat with
him for about two hours.
Before the war Teaffe married Miss
Katherine s. Hill. When the war broke
out he served as second lieutenant
with Company c Of the Eleventh. Mas
sachusetts, after exchanging into the
Twenty Eighth, where he was made
first lieutenant and afterward cap
tain.
While living In Boston after the war
he left home, saying he was going 70
visit a brother. John Teaffe.
In 1887 Mrs. Teaffe, convinced that
her husband was dead. made applica'
tion to the government for pension.
The application was refused on the
ground that there was nothing TO show
that her husband was dead. In 1909
Mrs. Teaffe renewed her application
and the government instituted q
search for Teaffe, which bore no fruit
until last week, when Examiner
Young says he finally located the man
at Grand Rapids. BY this discovery
Mrs. Teaffe loses all hope Of PEN
sion.
The first clue to Teaffe's where
abouts was found when II was remem-
bered that John Teaffe, Timothys
brother, had lived In a workhouse In a
small town In Rhode Island. John had
gone TO Swan River, Mimi, his ex-
penses having been paid by plumber
who, when located remembered that
he had been reimbursed by Johns
brother, who had sent the money from
some town in northern Minnesota.
Finally the man, who the examiner
says is Timothy Teaffe, was located in
Grand Rapids.
He denied all relationship with Mrs.
Teaffe. He said he had never been in
the army, but afterward admitted that
he had served two years with the vol
unteers. Letters were found contain
ing the correspondence with the plum
ber and with John. his brother. and
mentioning the name Of Timothy's IA
ther. who was sergeant in the Brit
ish army.
He had hidden himself In the lum-
bering regions around the Ottawa
river in Ontario, says the inspector
for years, during which he married
again.
