SCOTTISH RITE MASONS
are sending magnificent floral trib-
ute this evening. At session of the
Cass County Bar Association this af-
ternoon, a large attendance of the
members being present, resolutions of
coincidence were adopted as follows:
"The Saver cord is loosed, the golden
bowl is broken, the pitcher is broken
at the fountain, the wheel is broken
at the cistern, the dust returns to the
earth as it was and the spirit has re-
turned unto God who gave it.
Another life has gone out, a brother
rests, the ftful fever of his life over
his work done. Yesterday, in the full
strength and vigor of his matured
manhood, his life we'll rounded in the
service Of the state, the honor of pub
lie duty well and conscientously per-
formed resting gracefully upon him
Joseph M. Bartholomew received the
final summons and passed gently from
the finite to the infinite, from the tenn
poral to the eternal, and it becomes
| us as associates in his chosen and
loved profession, bowling humbly to
the wisdom of the omniscient, to rev.
erently and lovingly lay upon the altar
to his memory, our weak tribute of
words of praise, and the higher, nobler
holier tribute of our steadfast affection
and admiration.
The record of his services on the
supreme bench during the closing de-
cade OF the past century in assisting
to mold the jurisprudence of this
commonwealth, and to lay broad and
| deep the foundations for the admin
istration of justice within her borders
Is made up and closed forever; and
marks him as man far above the Or
| dlnary in his profession; a man Of
| ample learning, keen discrimination
accurate Judgment, profound convic-
tions of right and justice, and a high
sense of the duties and responsibilities
OF his exalted position and will stand
as lasting monument to his spotless
Integrity, his lofty patriotism, his hon
esty of purpose, his uprightness of
character, his eminently judicial fair
ness and candor, and his fearlessness
in the performance of duty.
"In private life, to know was to ad-
mire and to love him; always genial
always kindly, always considerate
with a sympathetic gentleness of char
acter, born of true manhood, the hours
of social intercourse with him become
TO us all pleasant cherished memories
&tsour deepest sympathy goes out to
his stricken fanilyin this the hour OF
ther darkest sorrow. In his passing
to; new life. the state loses patriotic
faithful, conscientious, citizen, socially
q true man and the profession an en-
iinently able and honest member, and
when the final verdict is in it will be
written here was a man t-2y' :,
