monary difficulties manifesting themselves, he
went TO Colorado for his health returning home to

he remained until his untimely death.
In Gen. Arnold we lose faithful brother and

in life. He sacrificed much for the Order more
than can ever be told and the debt of gratitude
can only be partially paid by ever reyering his
memory and in accepting his bright and shining
example as criterion for our own daily walks in
life. None knew him but to love him. Kind and
unpretentious, each found in him friend. AS
man and brother he may be equaled, never ex-
celled.
