tb:-n repair to saloons, where they
fill their hides with liquor and leave
their poor animals from morning un

summoned by the God whom we all
adore: Therefore be it resolved :
1st, That we recognize in him a true
and trustworthy Mason, a kind and
loving husband, an affectionate aud
merciful father, a good and reliable
citizen, aud that while we mourn the
lo.ssofhis company, the loss of his
counsel, the loss to society and State,
and-the loss of his services to our fra
ternity, yet we cannot say that it is
not well that a meritorious creature
be called by his magnanimous crea
tor. 2nd. That wo extend our heartfelt
sympathies to his family, so sadly be
reaved, and shall ovar be ready to
show our brotherly love and token, of
esteem to him and them by all that
aid and assistance which we have so
solemnly promised.
