olutions were adopted
WHEREAS, it hath pleased Almighty God, in the
dispensation Of his All wise and unerring Provi-
dence, to remove from the scenes of earth our be-
loved Brother John NJ. CerbettS therefore
ResolUed, That while we feel dleply the loss
which our Division and the community have sus.
tanned in the death of Bro. fCorbett, yet We feel
that it behooveth US to bow in humble submission
to the will of Him who is too wise to err and too
good to be unkind.
ResolUed, That in the death / of Bro. John Cor
bett, this Division has lost an active, jealous and
devoted member, and society an honorable, up
right and useful citizen.
RESOLVED. That we tender to his bereaved fami-
ly our heartfelt sympathies in this their hour of
deep affection. May they feel th4 hand of a
Father in this affecting dispensation, and derive
comfort from Him "who drieth the mourner's
tears"
ResolUed, That as a tribute of respect to the
memory of our deceased Brother, we will wear the
usual badge of mourning for thirty days.
Resolced, That a copy of these Resolutions be
forwarded to the family of the deceased and a
copy be sent to the Spirit of the Age, and Journal,
