The Saint Paul globe., 1900-05-31

asks our sympathies and our material
aid, and while he has himself passed be-
yond the need of those kindly benefac-
tfons we owe each other in life, ne still
holds place in our memory
Today, surrounded by tokens of NOR
tal1ty--yonder by the grassy mounds that
cover the remains of those that once lived
the monumental tablets that records
their history and the epitaphs that tell
their virtues, we are forcibly reminded
OF the perlshable nature of the things of
llnle 10 every man upon this earth
deatn cometh soon or late. Wealth cannot
bribe him to remain away; rank and pow
er cannot shield US from him.
NO strength of mortal arm can bar his
onward march. No prayer can turn aside
his stroke. He alone is no respecter of
persons. The ruddiest cheek pales before
his breath; the stoutest heart pales before
beat at his touch; the strongest frame
oows and falls before him as he moves
swiftly amongst the ranks of men; he lays
on one and another his chilling hand, and
they fall on either side lifeless and cold.
FRIENDS and loved enes mourn for a brief
period of time, but society soon forgets
the one whose voice is no longer heard
whose face is no longer seen-and only
a few cherish the memory Of the depart
ed.
To-day we decorate the graves of our
brethren who have gone to their rest
Some have reposed beneath the sod for
years, and their names are almost for
gotten by the world. Some have but late
ly been laid in their silent bed, and warm
hearts are still grieving over their death
But for all alike-in sorrow and in love
we have to come to awake the tender
thoughts of old association and recall to
mind the virtues of our departed friends. ,"
Mr.. John Jaeger, accompanied by Mr..
Rhys Herbert, sang the Vacant Chair, .
after which F. W. Zollman delivered an
grafton.
The Odd Fellows quartette, composed
OF William Jeffery, J. ]. Jones, Oliver
Jones and E. ]. Jones, sang I'VE Meet
Again, Boys, and after Past President
Robert had read the closing prayer and
the quartette had sung Brave Battery
Boys, the services were concluded with
few remarks by Judge Bazille. He said:
In behalf OF our most worthy president,
l thank you for the response you have
made to the call to attend our cere-
monies, and trust that the sprigs we
have planted this day will in the future
