Adoption of Resolutions Relative to the l Death of s. w. F. Andrews. l At a meeting of the members of
 East Haven grange No. 106, held on
 Tuesday evening, March 6, 1900, c. w.
 Bradley, Marietta Coe and Grove J. | Futile were appointed a committee to
 present appropriate resolutions on the
 death of s. w. F. Andrews. The fol-
 lowing resolutions were reported and
 unanimously adopted
 | First-That the sorrowful intelligence
 of the sudden death of Brother Samuel w. F. Andrews, who entered this life
 on Saturday, January 25, 1S45, and who
 died on Sunday, March 4, 1900, having been communicated to us, we hereby give sincere testimony to the great and |irreparable loss this grange has sus- talned. He was an active member of this subordinate grange for many years, formerly worthy master and recently elected it's worthy secretary; also chair
 man of the executive committee of the New Haven County Pomona grange No. 5.
 Second-At this hour of mourning a few sincere and truthful words respect ing our deceased brother are not deem- ed out of place. That he was man of intellect all who knew him will bear witness. He was a speaker who was dignified, clear in thought and expres-
 sion, not obscure or ambiguous. The great, prominent trait of his character was his broad, enlightened and fearless independence. He was one of that class of mef--too limited in every community |--who think for themselves and dare to say what they believe to be right. In presenting his views on grange, school or town subjects he was direct and log ical.
 Third-His lamented death has occur red at an age which is considered the prime of life. An attorney by profess sion, he has gone where there is no writ of error nor appeal He has left every worldly activity and these scenes for ever. No more shall we see him in this hall, standing on this floor advocating with marked ability those measures call culated to advance the best interests Of this fraternal order. All of him that is mortal and earthly will soon quietly re- pose in the soil of his native town, but his memory will be embalmed in our hearts for all time to come.
 Fourth-Tfse correct and interesting history of securing the site, and the .nF ho school edifice on Thompson avenue will always bear witness ''after the time when one brick is not left on another" to his indefatigable interest and zeal, for the material advancement of better educational facilities in the town of East Haven.
 Fifth-In the death of Brother Ar drews we are forcibly reminded that the present nfe is an uncertain and con tinuoua struggle, and those who hold on bravely to the end are sustained by Christian faith and hope and not by scphistry and that which obscures the truth. It Is warning that our daily actions and utterances should show the light of correct intent and then our in fiuence will tend to produce good results anu WHiit ColsLdHiy lINiH6 III tliG shadow of the grave" strive to reach higher than earths highest honors.
 Slxth-Tbe great loss that we are now called to experience is also argumenta- tive of the fact that we should always be ready for the summons that will surely come a. some period of time to all
 Seventh-.We sincerely grieve in sym pathy and extend our condblencc to the widow of the deceased Sister Flor ence k. Andrews and her family at this time of their great afl1iction
 Eighth--It is directed that the fore going be entered at length upon the rec ords of this grange No. 106 q copy duly attested given to Sister Andrews; the worthy secretary of the New Haven County Pomona grange No. 5, and Foxon grange No. S4 It is further or dered that the customary proceedings attending the death of member be ob- served
