On Sunday morning Sept. Z, 1902,
at his home In this city, surrounded
by his loved ones and faithfnl friends
our beloved brother, w. A. Calfee,
passed into that dreamlega sieep,
called death.
He was one of the charter mem
bers of our lodge and always faith
fully and well performed his part as
a member. His life was an eXempli-
fication Of all the best and Hottest
principles of fraternity.
His was simple life, a true life.
In it there was nothing of sham. or
show or hypocrisy. IN all be said
or did he was sincere, unassumming
and honest. He was a man Of ten
der sympathy and OF broad human
ity. He saw In every man brother
and praeticed the principles of
brotherly charity. He knew the
frailties of weak aud faltering hu-
man kind and with generous heart
and loving hand he helped to bear
the burdens Of his fellowman.
He was a Christian man. The re-
ligion he professed entered into and
formed a part Of his daily life. In
business, In his church and Sunday
school relations, In his association
in this lodge he bore about him the
same evidences of that faith that
was so precious to him.
He had lived in this city for more
than forty years and had won the
love and confidence OF orr people
and by his lofty life proved himself
an example that all might follow.
In the years of peace he was safe
and conservative citizen, and in the
perilous days of the past he was a
brave and faithful soldier Of the
Confederacy. For all these splendid
traits that adorned his character
and beautitied his life we loved him
while living and honor his memory
now.
We extend our sympathy to his
bereaved family, and would comfort
them with the thought that with
their loved one, death was but the
gathering to eternal life"
We further direct that these res
oiutions be recorded upon our min
utes, that a copy thereof he furn-
ished the family Of our deceased
brother and a copy to the city
papers. 0sCE uoobWINt
