He again opened up a shop in Hamburg but after a short time he disposed of his business there and entered the employ of the Hamburg Steamship Company as barber and doctor's assistant. For eight years he remained with that company, crossing the Atlantic eighty-five times. On one of these trips he met the late George Keeline, Sr., of Council Bluffs, who was suffering from carbuncles on his back. Mr. Bernhardi treated him and upon inquiry concerning his nativity Mr. Keeline learned that our subject was a fellow countryman. A warm friendship sprang up between them and it was through the influence of Mr. Keeline that Mr. Bernhardi came to Council Bluffs, being offered unlimited assistance by Mr. Keeline if he would engage in business in this city. Accordingly, in 1879, he decided to come to America, locating first, however, at Long Branch, where he remained for only a short time.
