Whereas, BY the death of Frank D.

bers OF the bar Of this county, this
community has been most painfully
reminded OF the uncertainty OF life,
and those OF us who heretofore had
frequent Intercourse with him had
imest forelhly impressed upon us the
fact that even youth with apparent
health and strength offers no barrier
to death's claim uponus
And whereas. The bar OF this coun
lty desires to publicly record its appre
lGiatlon OF the many good qualities OF
tho deceased, the sorrow Of Its mem
beers on account OF his death and theii
sympathy with Ii family in their loss
and bereavement.
