The Sun Of 1865 was q newspaper Of q

the fearlessness Of absolute independence.
The success OF this experiment was the

Changing nm Encampmens.

On Tuesday last Grand Patriarch
David Ross, accompanied by Grand
Scribe, Edwin Hirst, visited Seaford,
for the purpose of removing Sussex
Encampment, No. 4, l. o. .. f., from
that place to Laurel. Arriving at Sea-
ford they took possession of the en-
camprlent and in company with the
Rev. j. E. Nicholson, the secretary OF
the lodge and Grand High Priest of the
Grand Encampment of Delaware, pro-
ceeded to the town Of Laurel, about six
miles distant, where the Encampment
wac opened In due form at o'clock.
AT the request of the Grand Patriarch,
the unwritten work of the order was
exemplifed by Grand Scribe Edwin
Hirst. Two applications for member.
ship were received and referred to a
committee for investigation. At the
close OF the meeting . resolution was
submitted and unanimously adopted,
thanking the Grand officers for their
success iu removing the ebcampment.
The cause Of the removal was the
lukewarmness on the part of the Sea.
ford members In keeping up the en-
campment and oftentimes no meeting
was held. This state of affairs had ex-
listed for about two years, when the
Laurel members applied to the Grand
Encampment e for the renewal of the
same. Accordingly a committee was
appointed with power to act and 1t was
decided to remove the encampment as
above stated. The Seaford members
" ere 10th to have the Lodge removed,
but as it was not working satisfactorily
a change was thought best.
