chased the Angora goats which
are very valuable as wool prodpc-
ers, besides as goat for mutton.

from whose borne none returns.

wearlsome disease and others are
worn out by weight OF years, so
that the going Is but the happy

his true manhood will ever COM
maud our tenderest regard and
highest admiration. Yet we shall
miss the kindly word, the cheerful
greeting, and the hand that was
ever ready to assist the needy and
destitute.

which springs because Of brotherly
affection from the hearts OF all the
mem bers OF Apperson Lodge No.

We mourn the loss OF our de-
parted brother, and this tribute Is

we have sustained.
VIZ recommend that the above
