monies of the dedication of the Washington
Monument, are matters of Masonic history, and
his action not only met with the hearty ndorse-
ments of the craft, but also endeared him to
every Mason of the jurisdiction. Again, in
1889, when the great army of Knights Templar
were preparing to invade our city, it was neces-
sary for the committee of local Sir knights to
find man of vast executive ability to fill the
important position of chairman of the tr!ennial
committee, and the unanimous choice of Past
Commander Myron NJ. Parker, of Columbia
Commandery No. 9, for that office was but an
other evidence of the confidence reposed in him
by an organization which numbers among its
membership the most intelligent of our citi-
zens. OF all the great Masonic events of the
world the triennial conclave of 1889 stands pre-
eminently at the head, and the success of that
great event may be traced to the ability and
discrimination of Chairman Parker and his able
lieutenants. His Masonic official career is now
about to be completed in this jurisdiction by
the action of Columbia Chapter, and the con-
gratulations of his hosts of Masonic brethren
are rendered to the eminent Mason who has
never swerved or deviated from his slightest
duty, but has filled every office with fearless
ness, dignity, and honor.

has been an active member of the order for over
fifty years, living Odd Fellowship all the way
