parted this life, after a lingering illness For
several months past he has been suffering with
paralysis. which has incapacitated him from
attending to any OF his business interests, but
his sudden prostraton and death were utterly
unexpected. He was born in this city ifty-f four
years ago, and has always made IL his home.
In time past he was connected with the Bank
Of the United States, and was sent to Europe In
an honorable and confidential capacity with
reference TO that institution. He has held
many places OF honor and trust in the public
institutions In this community, and his name
has become universally known because OF his
Masonic Lodge of the State of Pennsylvania.
He became a Mason about twenty years ago,
and after having served in all the chairs of his
own Lodge, passed by unanimous election
through all the offices of the Grand Lodge. and
had at the time of his death served six months
of his first term as Grand Master. His sudden
departure has sorrowed many a heart, and
stricken with grief mourners, relatives, and
friends. The funeral will take place at his late
residence in West Philadelphia, at O'Clock
precisely, Saturday afternoon. The officers and
members of the Grand Lodge will attend the
funeral in body.
