A Memorial from Pine Lodge
No. 353.

AS the sun at its meridian
height is the beauty and glory of
the day, so stood our brother, A..
II. Brabham, in the noontide of
perfect manhood. No shadow has
fallen to mar the perfect beauty of
his life. An additional glory had
but recently been added in the
! person Of a young and beautiful
wife to crown with love and solace
his perfect aims and aspirations.
As he stood armed with the
breast-plate of righteousness, the
sword of truth, and the helmet of
Faith, that grim monster death
(who will sooner or later Overtake
us ALL overlook him, and after a
struggle of but afew days, our dear
brother laid down the burdens of
warfare to receive a crown of eter-
nal life.
AS he walked through ''the val
ley of the shadow Of DEATH" he
feared no evil-even as his feet
touched deaths cold river he tried
to cheer and com fort his heart bro
ken wife.
Death had no terrors for him, his
faith was welt founded; for he
trusted absolutely in Him who has
promised to be with his children
always, even to the very end.
So beautiful a life, and so glori
Gus a death should strengthen us
in our daily life, and teach us ''tO
so number our days as to apply
our hearts unto wisdom"
We his bretheren of Pine Level
Lodge grieve that he has been
taken from us, yet, we humbly
