Interesting story, plenty of research to be done here. Looks like Dutch and Homer Hillebrand were teammates at Princeton, before being teammates for the Pirates. Seems as though Hillebrands' older brother Arthur "refused to play in the majors" at some point. Not sure why. Could be Meier and Hillebrand had similar philosophies regarding "the majors". Homer Hillebrand joined the club in April 1905, but Meier joined in 1906 (or under an assumed name earlier) only played a year and went back to Princeton to coach baseball. Wow, plenty of questions, no answers for you.
