The following resolutions were passed at
the last regular meeting Of Baxter Post
No. 81, Opt. of Vt. G. A. r. on the death
of Comrade A. G. Jewell.
Whereas: 1t has pleased the great and
all wise Commander, to again enter our
Post and take from our ranks another of
our members, to join that great army of
veterans on the other side of the great
river. And
Wb Tn he death of 10 a
G. Jewell we have lost worthy and well
beloved memb Der of our Post and one we
shall greatly miss, as we fully realize that
We shall see his pleasant, cheerful face with
us no more. That we have lost one of our
youngest membe and one whose place
shall be unable to fill. Therefore be it
resolved in Post meeting assem- bled, that
we extend to the widow and children of
our deceased cOmrade, who have been so
suddenly bereft of a kind and indulgent
husband and father, our sincere sympathy
in this hour of their great bereavement,
and assure them, that with them we mourn
his loss, but not without hope. For we
know that soon we all shall be drafted to
join that great army on the other side. We
also realize, that while our loss is great
which we deeply feel, we know that
theirs is far greater. And we as a Grand
Army Post and as individual comrades
hereby pledge ourselves anew, to fully car
ry out the tenet of our order, and render
to them any and all assistance in our
power which they may need.
ResoLUed: That copy of these resolu-
tions be sent to the widow of our deceased
comrade, and copy to the Express and
Standard. and one to the Barton MONITOR
for publication, and also ordered to be
spread upon the record book of our order.
