At a meeting Of the Presbyterian
Brotherhood the following resolutions in
regard to the death of g. H. Lawrence
were unanimously adopted.
Be it Resolved. That we deeply re-
greet and sincerely mourn the death Of
Glenford II. Lawrence, a member Of
this organization. That we hereby ex-
press our appreciation of him as a good
law abiding citizen of this community,
as sincere and loyal friend to all to
whom he gave his friendship, as kind,
courteous and self sacrificing neighbor,
as a man who In every relation In life
which he was called upon to occupy did
his duty to the best Of his ability. The
predominating traits of bis character
were cheerfulness and courage. He was
blessed with the ability to smile and
keep a stout heart no matter what the
adversely that befell him. Such a man
always exercises helpful influence over
those with whom he comes In intimate
contact, and we know that here In this
community where he has lived for many
years he will be greatly missed.
Be 1t further Resolved, That we hereby
extend to his sorrowing widow and
children our heartfelt sympathy In their
