1t was with sorrow that We attended
the funeral of our young friend.
Charles Messier. who was killed by q
falling tree on his fathers farm.
Young Messier had endeared himself
to everyone by his manly character,
his devotion to his fathers interests
and his love of others. In his last
moments he struggled to forget his
own condition to relieve the agony of
the dear ones from whom he was so
soon to part. We extend our brotherlY
love and sympathy to the father, motEl
e., brothers and sisters and trust
that these poor words will comfort
them in their sorrow.
We wish to express our sincere
: thanks to the many friends who so
kindly assisted us in the hour of be-
reavement and also for the beautiful
flowers given by the school, Good
Templars. Masonic Paternity AMI other
friends. May they all be rewarded
with heavens richest blessings.
George F. Messier and Family
