Editor STAR:
The writer OF the "Other Side"
relative to the communication from
Deemer's X Roads Council Jr o. U. A.
NJ. took especial pains to show to the
public something which he knew
nothing at all about, and contrary to
the wishes Of the parties most interest
ed, but as he is noted for having Il desire
to air his talents and make himself
generally obnoxious we consider the
source. Us the gentleman did when the
mule kicked him. We are not going
to enter into many details, as we have
proven by our laws, which he claims we
hid behind" that we have done our
duty. as the following letter from our
state Councillor will show:
PITTsBURG, PA. MARCH 10, 1891.
DEEMERS Y ROADS COUNCIL, Jr. o. L.
A. NJ.
SIRs & Bros: In reply to yours Of
the 18th will say that Council is not
compelled by the laws Of the order to
take care Of Il brother who is sick with
contagious disease or who is non
beneficial, and II your council did so
YOU are to be commended for the
brotherly feeling.
There are few Councils in the state
that would have been so faithful and
wish to congratulate you personally
trust that those who are making
the trouble may be- brought to see the
matter in it's true light. That you
were not compelled to do it at all and
that you did so for 20 nights you are
entitled to great praise.
Fraiernally
NJ. ID. LICHLfrER, :. G.
Our laws are plain and open for any
one to read and we are required to live
up to them. whether we want to or not,
and Us to drceiving the public we have
not done SO nor do we desire to do so.
The laws of the order and our books are
open for the inspection of any one. We
are sorry this has occurred but we feel
il our duty to rctnliatc to the meaning
less babblc Of the writer Of the "Othcr
Side" who wrote simply at random
without knowing any Of, or anything
about the real facts pertaining to the
matter, and for his benefit will simply
add that people who live in glass
houses shouldn't throw stones"
Respectfully
