IN MEMORIAM.

| lO tllo WOr5lllplul mdStor,
Wardens and Brethren of Eve
ming Shade Lodge No. 143, F. &
A. M. Brethren:
The undersigned committee ap-
pointed to draft a suitable tribute
of respect to our deceased Brother
Robert s. Bacon, respectfully
and fraternally reports; That
Brother Robert Samuel Bacon
was born in Nottoway county
Virginia, March Oath 1S47, and
was reared and educated in that
state. In 1854 he joined the
army of Northern Virginia and
served for the most part in the
eng ineering corps until the
close of the war. He studied
medicine and shortly after the
war settled at Henderson Ken
lucky, and moving thence to
Arkansas, he located in Sharp
county, at Calamine in August
1875. He located in Evening
Shade in 1881, and practiced his
profession with great success un-
til his death January 2Sth, 1899.
He was initiated, passed and
raised in this Lodge, and exalted
to the August Sublime Degree of
the Holy Royal Arch in Rural
Chapter No. so, within a year or
two after locating at Evening
Shade, and served several terms
as Worshipful Maste of his Lodge
and High Priest Of, his Chapter,
He was always faithful and true,
Brethren: The emblems of
mourning are not needed to re-
mind us that a shadow rests upon
US, that the familiar face and
figure of one who was always at
his post is missing for the first
time in many years. His death,
though feared and expected,
came with a shock to US all. 1t
took the form Of a painful sur
prise, a misfortune from which
secape was impossible, and
seemed to sunder our hearts
most gentle, most lovable ties.
While we, clung with tender
memory to its idolized object, it
magnified the desolation which
surrounded US and intensified the
lonliness which oppressed us, by
the realization of the fact that
Brother r. S, Bacon was dead.
Be it therefore resolved: .....
That in the death of Brother
Bacon this Lodge has been stirred
with profound emotion. We ap-
preciated him as one OF t h Q
nobliest in our band of Brethren,
one whose place in his profession.
in society, in the Church and in
this Lodge will be hard to fill.
Resolved: That we condole
with his family in their loss of go
good a protector, and assure
them that we feel with them a
void in our midst since he has
passed away. ..,,.;

suffering ever recorded in Hunt county.
Seven years ago W. X. stegar and Holland

he was bitten by cat, and last Friday
when he came from work he told his wife
he was sick. His condition continued to
grow worse until Saturday, when he lost
his mind and attacked his wife. Neigh
bors were notified and came in and over
powered the unfortunate victim and physi-
clans pronounce his malady hydrophobia.

in their power to relieve him, but with
little hope of success.
