tiers. G. A. R. dated Milwaukee, Wis.
Jan. p, l,93. They make good reading
and we call especial attention TO section
VIII, which reads a. follows
Every member Of the order is soemnly
obligated To encourage honor and purity
10 public affairs" 1t is, therefore, en-
joined upon comrades to report promptly
to the Commissioner of Pensions, Wash
ington, ID. c.. any known case in which
pension is being received fraudulently.
1t will be seen, therefore, that the obIi-
CATION of the g. A. K. man is no unmean-
ing ceremony, but one which imposes high
and sacred duties. Just how ito encourage
honor and purity in public affairs" must be
determined by every comrade for himself.
Section XII is also worthy Of the most
careful attention. II reads as follows:
Two of our illustrious comrades have
recently been called by death from our
ranks, Rutherford B. Hayes, of Ohio, and
Benjamin F. Butler, of Massachusetts.
The latter wss the first Major General of
volunteers commissioned by President Lin
coin, and the former was for four years
president of the United States. These
distinguished comrades were both loyal to
the order from its inception to the
time of their death. Their presence at
our annual gatherings will be greatly
missed. and the Commander-inC Chief in
serts this paragraph to call upon the com
radeship at all times to emulate their viz
tues and defend their character Though
the whole world assail them"
