ODD FELLOWS PRocrrprNos. AT a re

ODD FELLOWS PROCEEDINGS. At re
cent meeting of Ligonia Lodge. [. OF. of
which the late DIR. Charles w. Thomas was a
member, resolutions were passed referring to
him as an honorable, high-minded and gen.
erous brother, whose presence always brought
sunshine and cheerfulness to the hearts of
his associates" and sympathizing with his re-
iations in their unexpected bereavement: and
with the poor, who through his demise had
lost friend, ever ready to bestow his profess
sional services upon them without regard TO
compensation, and whose sympathies were
always with them in their Affections.
In introducing these resolutions, the MEM
Der by whom they were offered. after speak
ing of the many excellent qualities of the de-
ceased, took occasion TO refer to the singular
mortality that had prevailed among the MEM
bers of this Lodge within two or three years
past. 1t was but week or two previously, that
they had been called to mourn the loss OF
their brother John ]. Brown, whose urbanity,
refinement of taste, carefulness of the feel
ings of his associates, and unobtrusive benev-
olence, were properly recognized in series of
resolutions at the time. And Mr.. Brown was
further spoken Of as one, whose worth, owing
to his retiring habits, was not fully apprecia-
ted, save by those who were often brought in
contact with him. --i '.l
Besides these, Ligonia Lodge numbers
among its comparatively recent dead the late
Capt. John Sargent. Thomas r, Jones, Geo.
| Il. Hedge, Nathan Fessenden. J. Slower Little
and Stephen Waite. Indeed within the past
five years, its members have been decimated
| by the calls OF the white angel Death.
