train last night on his return to the
city, he thought at first that he was
gazing into a mirror. But the APP
parent reflection held out a hand
and Mr.. Taylor recognized his broth
er NJ NJ. Taylor whom he had not !
seen for fourteen years. The latter |
arrived in the city several days ago
while his brother was absent in the |
southern part OF the territory and |
had not been apprised of his coming. |
Their meeting here was something of /
a coincidence c. A. Taylor was sent |
here early in the year from the eX- |
IRENE northwest where he had been !
stationed II was the same disease
that brought this brother from the |
extreme east. Fairmont, w. Va, to |
the same spot for relief. The former |
was greatly improved in the short |
time that he has resided in Phoenix |
and the latter believes that he can 1
notice an Improvement in the three
or four days he has been here. He |
will shortly send for his family.
