• Notes

  DIED AT SAME HOUR Two Brothers Died in Different Cities While Telegrams Were Being Sent. GUELPH. Jan. 12- At the same hour Sunday morning when Christian Friedman, a mechanic, of this city, passed away, the death took place in the city of Buffalo of his brother, George Friedman. Telegrams conveying the sad message one to the other crossed on the wires and neither lived to receive the news of the other's death. Relatives at Berlin and other points received the messages at the same time and thought some mistake had been made, but enquiry only confirmed the coincidence. Both men were about middle age and members of an old Elora family.
