by Rev. John Squier, after which the
the business of the association was taken

The exercises will consist of addresses
by the older members of the association,
other exercises of a literary character,

highly interesting char acter.
Suggestions in regard to the re- union
were made by Rev. Squier, Miss Biddle,
Miss Owens and oJhars.
The literary program were then taken
up, and nearly all present were prepared.

Biddle, Miss Owens, Eugene 4. Reynolds
Mr.. j. l. Crothers and Mr.. Currier.
The public ara cordially invited to

their trouble.

Monday, Nov. oh, 1891.
WHEREAS, Oar Believer Brother, Past
Master john Perkins, has been cut down
in the midst of vigorous and usefu
manhood, by the all devouring scythe OF
time and gathered to that land where
our fathers have gone before;
Therefore be ii EeSolred, First, That
this Lodge has lost most faithful and
useful member, and the community one
of its best citizens.
Second, That Brother Perkins, by his
sterling integrity, his upright walk aud
conversation, his Christian precept aud
example, his constant attention ard
fidelity in the discharge OF his responsive
duties rs man aud Mason, has en-,
deared himself not only to the members
of the Craft but to the people of this
community.
Third, That, to us, in the dim light OF
reason, his was al uutimely death. Truly
good man has fallen in the midst of his
labors OF love and duty, aud language is
inadequate to express our sympathy Tor
his stricken and bereaved widow and
children. For CONSOLATION, we would
point them to his well spent life, to his
well grounded hope and faith in the Lion
of the Tribe of Judah. and would re-
mind them, that their Loss is his gain;'
that our Heavenly Father who doeth all
things well, Will be father to the father
less AID will give strength and support
to the widow
Fourth, That his chair in this Lodge
and the jewel of his Office be draped in
mourning for a period of thirty days
from this date as a mark of respect to
the memory of our deceased Brother,
and that copy OF these resolutions be
mailed to his family and to the Grand
Lodge OF Mary land.

Funeral of MIR. Perkins.

The large Conc)ulse of friends aid
acuuaintances which assembled at thu
Methodist Episcopal Church, on Monday,
to pay their last tribute of respect to the
memory of John Perkins, attested the
esteem in which he was held i'll this com
munity. The hour for the funeral services

hour every available seat in the church
was occupied. At half past two O'Clock,
the remains were borne into the editice
