Damon & Pythias Revealed In the Modern Life.

Two deaths revealed in Hammond Monday a modem Damon and Pythias. For many years Joseph Miller, manager of the Hotel Carleton in Hammond, and his brother became critically ill while on a vacation visit to his former home in Berwick, Pa. Physicians telegraphed John that his brother could not live and to hurry to Berwick. John became despondent and Friday night went to a bam and hanged himself from a rafter. Joseph rallied when he was informed that John had been summoned to his bedside. However, when the brother did not arrive the patient knew instinctively that tragedy had overtaken him. Finally the physicians were forced to tell Joseph of John’s fate. Joseph suffered an immediate relapse and died early yesterday. The brothers will be buried in the same grave in Hammond.
