Civil War Veterans Three Missing
Brothers Appeared to Him in Dream.
To the Editor Of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: I had a dream in which through
your paper I located my three long lost
brothers, Robert Julius Weilke born Feb
ruary Is, 1925: Emil Theodore, born Janu-
airy e. 1890, and Rheinhald Leopold, born
November :, 1s}5 in Germany. In 1875 my
father, Simon +. Wellke, with his family
OF eight children. came TO Houston, Tex
BY way Of Galveston, and settled on farm
OF a hundred acres thirty miles north OK
Houston. He remained there eight years
and then moved to Western Missouri for
one year and later moved over the line
into Linn County. Kan, TWO miles north
west Of Trading Post
Shortly before leaving Texas two OF my
brothers. Emil and Rheinhald. did not want
TO remain home any longer and went 10
work for neighbors This provoked father.
and he didn't tell the boys where We were
going nor did he write 10 them after ar
irving in Missouri While IN Missouri my
Oldest brother, Robert, a cabinetmaker,
went 10 st. Louis to get work. These
three brothers have not been heard Of
since.
While On the farms fathers and mine
In Linn County, Kan. the rebels became
50 terribly mean in our neishborhood that
they shot a whole line OF our neigh bors
and were taking me. with some others, 70
q tree 10 hang u.s. on the way they stopped
for water at the cabin Of negro woman,
and while they we're busy ] made my
escape through a corn1eld. The next day
! arrived home and stayed just long enough
10 tell the family OF what had happened
and bid them goodby, when ! started for
Fort LeaVenworth, Kan. There I enlisted
I'm the Civil War and served nearly four

THE POST ROAD GRAB.

The Assembly has done an uuiustiha-
,hle thing In passing the bill for the Spp-
,listion of New YOrk's finest suburban
parkway. 1t is a bill for the construc-
tion Of trolley line along the Albany
Post Road, through Dobbs Ferry, Irving
ton and 1arrytown That would inev-
stably mean such occupancy Of the mar
row roadway by car tracks as 10 make
other traffic inccnyenieut and unsafe
and 1t would, Of course. mean the de
,etruetion or az least the gross mutila-
tion of the fine trees which now form
one Of the chief charms Of that road.
1t would be objectionable vandalism 10
do this unless there were some oyerpow-
-ering public demand for it, as serving
81 indispensable purpose which could
b. served In no other way. But these
conditions do not exist, but, rather. con
dtions quite the reverse.
The people along the road certainly do
not want the car line. They are earnestly
opposed to II. And they have ground
for their opposition Years ago that
parkway was exempted from invasion
hy any railroad by act Of the Legs
IL tlire Relying upon that act people
have purchased and beautified estates
along tho road as they would not have
done without IT, 70 withdraw the eX-
emptlon now and 10 construct trO2cy
line there would lac a moral breach OF
contract against which tho property
owners have every right 10 protest
There Is undoubted need Of a car line
10 connect those towns. But there IS no
necessity for IT'S being on the post road.
There Is. as was pointed out al Albany,
another parallel route which would
serve the purpose Just as well. in fact,
better, for the reason that it would be
closer 10 the homes Of its patrons. ON
the post road many Of the estates are eX-
teuSlye. with long frontaecs. 50 that
house are far apart. On the other
route iand is divided into smaller lots
aud population is OF viii be- much more
dense. \ car line on the latter would
therefore be much more convenient for
the people whom il h. expected 10 serve.
The promoters Of the post road troll
ley scheme probably count however,
upOn much patronage from those who
would want 10 ride along that thorough
fare Just TO see the notable estates
which border IT; and We have no doubt
that such patronage would be consid-
erablc We can, in fact, imagine
crowded cars Of sighisecrs, accompanied
by a guide bawiiHg through mega
phone. "O1 the rigIt Miss Helen
