Dr. Thilo Brauns, one of our best German physicians on the Northside, died suddenly yesterday, 63 years old. He was born 1831 in Hilberstadt (Germany), studied medicine in Greifswold and came in 1854 to New York, where he settled down as a physician.

He moved to Chicago in 1872 and has been with us since as a successful physician and surgeon. Dr. Brauns is survived by three daughters and one son. His funeral will be to-morrow afternoon from his home at 647 Sedgwick Street.
