Notes |
- A citizen who fills an important place in the industrial life of New Hamburg is Mr. H. C. Brightrall, foreman of the buffers' and polishers' department of the Hahn Brass Co. Mr. Brightrall was born in Waterloo County but went to the United States when 11years of age. He returned to the land of his birth 6 years ago and has creditably filled his present position ever since. Needless to say, he is a thorough mechanic and does well whatever comes to his hand.
