Division No. !, A. o. H, held its reg
ular meeting Wednesday evening of
last week. The meeting was largely at
tended and the members Of the order
from outside the city, who came to at
tend the funeral of the late John Flood,
were present. It. might be termed a
memorial meeting for the late member
of the division. The visiting brothers
delivered short but eloquent tributes
to the memory of one who was beloved
by every member of Division No. /, A.
o. H. The division has decided to have
a large portrait Of the late member
made and hung in the division hail.
Resolutions of sympathy were passed
by the division and ordered sent to the
family of the deceased brother.
The funeral of the late John Flood
took place Wednesday morning of last
week from the Cathedral. 1t was one
Of the largest funerals ever seen from
the Cathedral, and the large edifice
was too small to accommodate the sor-
rowing friends of the deceased, who
came to pay their last tribute to his
memory. Rev. Father Corbett preach
ed over the remains and he paid most
eloquent tribute to the memory of be-
loved John Flood, who was everybody's
friend and whose heart was always
full of kindness for all whom he knew.
He has gone, but his memory shall al
ways live in Division No. /, A. o. H.,
as well as all over the state in the A.
o. H. circles. The floral tributes were
beautiful, many coming from outside
the city. There were delegations from
st. Paul, Minneapolis and Brainerd to
attend the funeral, among them being
State President Kenney, State Secre-
Fund Doyle, and Insurance Director
Dan w. Clark. 1t was certainly grand
tribute Of respect these men paid to
the departed member of Division No.
/, A. o. H., and the local division feels
his loss all the more on this account.
When these gentlemen will leave their
to attend the last rites of the church
over his remains, how much more will
Division No. 1, A. o. II. miss the pres
ence of good, generous, wholc-souled
John Flood. Every member feels his
loss keenly and at the meeting strong
men could not keep the tears from their
eyes as they heard the visiting BROTH
ers eulogize him. Division No. /, A..
O.. H., had full charge of the funeral
turnout of the members at the funeral.
