WHEREAs,-As the funeral dirge is
ever vibrating upon our ears, we become
Indifferent TO the Sorrow and grief of
those around us. We heed not the mourn.
full wall until the sound of the bell tolls
the knell that summons us to the grave OF
one we love. God in his infinite wisdom
has seen fit to remove such an one from
our midst (Comrade |. G. Sanborn, late
of Co. III, 9th regiment Vt. Vols.) from
comradeship with us here below, to the
Grand Army above. Therefore,
Resolved, That with deep sorrow we
mourn the loss of our Comrade, and
thankful that in life he was able to give
us an excellent example of perseverance
and activity, of firm and steadfast devo-
ton to the right of true fraternity, char
ity and loyalty. which is the life and soul
of the true soldier,
ReSoIUed,-That we extend to the af-
fiicted family our deepest sympathy and
coincidence in the loss of husband and
father. May our remembrance of him
who stood at his post during the darkest
hours that lowered over this fair land
quicken our spirits to be true and faithful
to the principles of our institution.
We must not hope to De mowers
And to gather the ripe golden ears,
Unless we have first been sewers
And watered the flowers with our tears.
ResOlUed, -That we cause our altar to
be draped in mourning for the next sixty
days, and that copy of these resolutions
be presented to the widow of our deceas-
ed Comrade, and that our Adjutant be in
structed to record them upon the records
of Foster Post No. 55; also that they be
published in the NEWS AND CITIZEN.
