IN MEMORIAM,


A Tender Tribute to the Life and
Memory of Maggie e. Money.
Died at the home of her uncle, F. P. Van
Hekle, ST., near Delaware City, on October
4th, of paralysis of the heart, Maggie E.
Money, aged SO years.
The deceased was the daughter Of George
B. Money, child of good impulses and
developed into true womanhood; was con-
verted in Rev. re- Conwelps Church in Phila-
delphia, but living away from any organized
church, much as she desired SO to do, never
united with the same. But her life was one
OF devotion 10 her friends. and especially to
that friend that sticketh closer than o
brother Her life was one Of sacrifice.
She was always ready to help others and
never faltered nor murmured at any task
in the line Of duty.
Her father, sister and relatives have the
deepest sympathy Of all who knew her, but
they have the consolation that if faithful
to the end, as was our beloved friend, they
with her shall see the King in His beauty
and have an everlasting habitation in His
presence where there is fuIness Of joy and
at His right hand where there are pleasures
for eyermore. wv. B.

DELAWARE BUILDING.
Sold to the Highest Bidder for Eigl
F4unds.nd nnITasss


Sold to the Highest Bidder for Eight
Hundred Dollars.
The Delaware Building at the World:
Fair has been sold to w. G. Ross, o.
Chicago, for $500. It cost $1,000 to build it
The State Board Of Managers owe about
5000 on it yet, but as something viii be
realized from the furniture. together with
the money secured for the building, the in
debtedness viii be considerably reduced.
What disposition the late purchaser
means to make Of The building we have moi
heard.
There have been various suggestions as te
the probability Of Delawareans buying i
and carrying it home, bufsas such plan:
seemed little likely to materialfze It wat
deemed prudent to sell IL when the oppor
tunity was afforded.
One plan was to remove and rebuild i
somewhere down the State, and make it {
home for friendless children. But thai
would not work at all. then It was proposed
to make it club house at Rehobotn. that
met with little more favor, possibly be-
cause our public spirited men q? were more
interested In q club room than home fol
friendless children. But for all, even thai
would not make the enterprise go, and the
building has probably gone out of ouI
hands forever, though should our public
spirited men desire it, they might possibly
negotiate with the present purchaser.
But that i hardly probable. The same
lack Of enterprise that characterized oul
State exhibit, Or the want Of Il, Is quite
notable, and II Is not to be expected that
the State building would awaken any
interest.
It is probably very well that it should
pass out of existence, and the pride or sat
isfaction Its visitors have taken in il win re
main as pleasant memory.

WHEREAS, 1t has pleased the Supreme
Grand Master of the universe, in his wisdom
to call our brother A.P. Carnagy from his
eartherly labors to his eternal rest; and
WHEREAs, The knowledge of the death
of our brother comes to this lodge as a
great shock and we deeply mourn the re-
moval of one that has been an honored and
useful brother. Therefore be it
RESOLVED. That in the death of brother
A. P Carnagy, Union Lodge No. 5, A. +.
and A. NJ. has sustained great loss, and
our fraternity mourns the vacant seat OF
one with whom we have often held counsel
together By his untimely death we are again
reminded of the unering certainty shafts OF
the stgrim destroyer that the mountains in
falling cometh to naught, and the rock is
removed out of its place. The waters wear the
stone. the things which grow out of the
dust of the earth are washed away, and
the hope of man is destroyed, and while
we thus walk among the ruins OF the past
hours. sad feeling of insecurity comes
over US who linger on the shores, and II
we turn to our friends and brothers, we can
hardly speak to them before they are DID
farewell.
ResoIued, That while we lament the
death of our brother, we affectionately
bear testimony that he was acknowledged
as citizen whose every impulse was to ad-
vance the material interests of the COM
munity in which he lived, that he was
ever prompt to execute every obligation OF
charity to his fellow man, and wherever
known was respected as an upright man
and Mason.
ResolUed, That this lodge convey to his
bereaved family the assurance Of our ira
ternal sympathy, and commend them to
the Fatherly care Of that One whose assur-
ance is given of comfort to those who
mourn and are heavy laden.
ResolUed, Thatwe attend his funeral as
lodge, and attest by our presence the
esteem in which we hold the memory
of our departed brother.
ResoLUed, That our expressions of re-
spect and the attestation of our loss be pub
lished in the newspapers of the town, and
that our lodge be draped with the badge of
mourning for usual period, and a memorial
page be set apart on the records of the
ledge.
