BY the death of Charles $. Plummer,
this community has lost one of its best,
most euterpriSing ard influential ciliz.
ems. Widely known and highly res
| pected throughout Salem County and
other parts OF the State, having repre-
scented his native county in the State
Senate, and filled many other positions
of trust, and responsibility his death
will be deeply regretted by many outside
the large circle of relatives and family
connections, and The community ia
which he lived. In all his business re.
lations he was Il man of sterling hon
esty and uprightness.
Since his conversion some four OF
five years ago, he had been a faithful
and consistent member Of the NJ. L.
Church, an exemplary Christian, ever
maDifesting Il deep interest in all that
%perlained to the welfare and prosperity
of the Church, until falling health made
it no longer possible, labored diligently
for the promotion of all its interests.
Though sometimes impetuous, ardent
and n%erv0usly energetic in advocating
its interests, he vas yet prudent and
spacious. His wise council, discreet
judgment, and bountiful l~iberality,
will be sadly missed.
AS an Odd Fellow, having been a
member Of Winona Lodge No. 131, l.
90. i. since its organization, although
not extensively known beyond his own,
and a few neighboring Lodges.
Being prevented by his business in
terests from a regular attendance upon
and active participation in the business
of the Lodge, yet he vas ever true and
faithful 10 the obligations ana RESPONSE
bilities it imposed upon him. And his
deeds of benevo!enee and charity bear
testimony to the fact that lie loved its
principals. No deserving needy one
appealed to him IN vain. No worthy
brother asked Il favor, but it WAS cheer.
fully granted. With sympathizing
heart and open hand he WAS ever ready
to minister to the wants Of suffering
humanity. He was ever the same no.
bic character, kind, corsiderate and
genial TO all. In al! the relations of
his life manifested those noble qualities
of soul and characteristic of mind and
heart which endeared him to all with
whom he was related.
Such IA man could not have been 9TH
er than a loving and devoted husband,
a kind and indulgent father. a friend
indeed When we remember that our de-
parted brother was but a man, let us
emulate bis many virtues, and in the
same generous spirit that he manifest
ed, drop the mantle of charity over his
faults, whatever they may have been.
In full confidence that his labOrs ended,
his SORROWS past, lie has found a peace.
full rest in the joyous sunlight of an
eternal morning. Opp FELLOW.
