were adopted by Rising Star Lodge Of
Good Templars, in reference to Mrs.
Rosette, widow of Warner Glidden,

temperance "a brig h t and shining

many. Yet We trust our loss is her
gain.
Resolved, That we as an organized
band do deeply mourn the death Of
our exemplary sister, possessed with
ardor in reforming the inebriate, and
earnest in inviting all to become good
and worthy members of our lodge.
