At the meeting Of the Official Board
Monday evening, March 10th, Messrs.
Joseph A. Locke, Charles Il. Baker and
George H. Lord were appointed oom-
mittes to prepare and present resolutions
on the death of Mr.. Thomas Edwards.
They subsequently reportedIpreamble and
resolutions as follows, which were unani-
mously adopted:
Whereas Brother Thomas Edwards, for
many years the faithful treasurer of this
church, and member of our Board of
Trustees, departed this life at Maitland,
Florida, March 18th, whittier he had gone
for much needed rest with his wife and
two of his daughters; and
Whereas his demise followed so quickly
that of his daughter J. Violet Edwards,
aged IA years. beloved member of our
church and Sunday school, who died
March end, the remains of both being
brought home and buried the same day
in the family lot at Evergreen Cemetery
Therefore
Resolved, That by this donble be-
reavement, our church and society have
sustained a severe loss. Brother Edwards
| was quiet, unassulntng man, not much
given to speech, but ono whose every
word and act bespoke the earnest Chris
tian and tine sincere friend A man of
good Judgment and much experience in
affairs he earnestly devoted his abilities
| for the best interests of all with whom he
| was associated. AS treasurer of the
church and society, he was faithful and
painstaking in all things, Outlines max
| ing up deficiencies in our benevolent COL
| lections, when no one would know. it
but the official board when his accounts
were rendered. Cautious and honest, he
worked quietly and earnestly for the ad-
| vancement of this church and of Chris
tianity, and finally offered his life sacri-
| flee in the care of his beloved ones. We
shall ever honor his name and treasure
the memory of his virtues.
The daughter, Violet, was a perfect
sunbeam IN the path of all whom she
met; Of an open heart and generous
nature, she had a smile and a kind,
pleasant creating for all, and none know
her but to love her.
Resolved, That we deeply sympathize
with Sister Edwards and her family in
this our mutual bereavement
Resolved, That these resolutions be
snread upon the records of the church
and copy sent to the family of the de.
ceased.
