TO give his spirit II gorgeous eend-of, aud for
TINT purpose each of the 5000 members Of the
order contributed 80 cents A portion of this
money will be sent to the Doctors widow and

Doctor to elude the very vigilant and acrobatic

themselves for the great event Preliminary
evidence OF grief came doleiully through an
