Mr.. Lyons address, il as follows:
We are met here today to do honor
to the memory OF our brothers who
have passed to the happy hunting
grounds beyond.
The Red Men of the hunting grounds
of Little Falls extend to friends and
palefaces welcome and greeting. Red
Men have neve. believed that the death
OF a human being, the cutting off Of
human life, was the end Of all. But have
ever taught that the passing away Of
one OF their number was bat the trans
latlon Of the better part Of the stricken
brother to happier life beyond, where
rhereis no pain, no troubles. no hunger,
and a happy life forever. This clearly
shows and all discovered records show
that the original Red Men believed in
the immortal part Of man, the immor-
tally OF the soul.
believe that there IA that something
in man, in all men and peoples wherever
they may be, which in spite OF all that
may be said or taught, which leads one
and all down deep in his heart to believe
in the Immortality OF man Centuries
ago the death OF a person was con-
side, ed to be the end OF his existence,
and the people built q pyre and con-
sumed thereon not only the remains OF
The departed, but the lives also OF bis
immediate family and rels tivee. But

quired greater respect for human life
and human rights, aud under that Great
Teacher, who gave to the world that
new rule OF life and action, do unto
Others as you would that they should
do unto you. and the further one when
He said, "a new commandment ]. give
UNTO you. that You love one .another,')
the world has adopted the rule OF low"
and brotherhood, and has come to be a
universal brotherhood, ::the brotherhood
of man.
In this we, a. Red Non believe, the
un;verral BROTHERHOOD OF man, to bury
the dead, to care for the living, and to
apply these. obligations not alone to the
members OF our own order but to man
generally. We NEST here today not that
We may aid our departed brothers, but
that We may draw something from their
lives and memories which will help 20 on
our journey through the forests OF life
and bring happiness to eur brothers and
friends and to enable us to better CON-
ply with tho obligations we have taken,

pass to the happy hunting grou nde be-
You'd, it may not be said Of us that we
have lived in vain, but that it may bs
said OF ne that We have remembered our
obligations and have done what We
could to help and aid brother and con-
tribute in some humble degree to the
happiness of man..
