 At meeting of Good Shephert lodge, No. 65, l. O. O. F., held Thurs day evening, August 16, 1906, the fol lowing preamble and resolution wa unanimously adopted: WHEREAS from the midst of ou Lodge there has been removed one O. its most honored members, Judg, James H. McMahon, it is but just tha we should pay that last respect to hin which is enjoined upon us by virtue o1 long association and memories of hi, many benefactions to it's members. Joining the Lodge in 1880, from that time up to the time of his lamenteC death, he always held the Lodge anC It's principles as sacred to him, as in deed, his last written words SO elo quently, though silently, speak. UT n1s public career it is not neces sary here to speak. Suffice it to say that there never was a trust, either public or private, placed in his hands, but what was zealously guarded with consummate skill and fidelity to the people and his clients. Not only was ne good lawyer, but he was a good citizen.
 It is with him as a member of the LouSe tndG we now speak. In it's councils his voice was always raised for its betterment and the succor of its members; his advice was always listened to with approbation; and his teachings were accepted in their most penevolent sense; therefore though with sorrow we are compelled to bow to the inevita ble, and shall never again be permitted to enjoy his counsel and his fraternity, we shall always hold his memory as green as the sprigs deposit ed at the last sad rites, realizing that the same will come "once, only once. but surely once" to each of us, there fore1with the utmost sorrow and re- gret, be it
 RESOLVED, That in the death of Brother McMahon the Lodge loses one Of its most valued and honored mem- be-s, whose memory will be held in the highest regard so long as Odd Fellow ship shall endure.
 RESOLVED, That these resolutions he spread at length upon the minutes of the Lodge, and copy be transmit ted to the public press for publication,
 Respectfully submitted,
