says:
"The Odd Fellows Beneficial asso-
ciation held special meeting in the
Temple last evening to take into con-
sideration some means of relief for class
3D." which was threatened with extinct
ion by reason of the heavy rate of NOR
tality and the withdrawal of a number
of members. This necessitated the call
ing of last nights special meeting.
Henry c. Hedges presided and T. A.
Morgan, secretary Of the association, re-
corded the proceedings. Between 800
and 400 members We're present, and
after the objects ofthe Getting hal been
stated number Of plans were proposed
for relief, and full liberty of discussion
permitted. The plan of relief finally ad-
opted was that the return 81 be abolish
ed and the assessment lowered from
81. % to 1.15o the death of member.
Heretofore when a member paid S1.25
he was returned 81 of the sum. 1t is
thought that the adoption Of this plan
will afford the relief desired.
