AS an organized body of Il lodge,
known us the Benevolent Lodge, of
the city of Lancaster, n.y.. we meet
on this blessed Lords day to return
humble thanks to our Heavenly Fa-
Their for having spared our lives to
meet on this day to give thanks for
protecting our order through another
twelve months, and permitting us To
prosper as we have this year. This
lodge was organized in A. d. 1884, by
Rev. Ransom Craig, of the Kentucky
Conference n. NJ. r. church. The Be
neyolent Society started out upon the
great sea of ignorance soon after our
race was freed, and this society has
had its struggles to get solid officials
to stand at its head, but by the help
of our kind Heavenly Father, today
this society numbers one hundred
members, and is worth about three
thousand dollars. This shows to all
today that God has been with us and
our business is to try to return to the
Lord thanks for his loving kindness.

ing sermon as best L can. The text
says "Be kindly aifectiOned one to

The second thought is to

is to be active in business, let it be

fifth thought is to do the Lords com

In the present condition with all

Continuing the discussion of the

in the national democratic platform
for 1900 he said in conclusion:

it can continue to hold its grasp on

it seems to do now.
