Ledge Resolutions.
Whereas it has pleased Almighty
God, in His wisdom and power to re-
move from our lodge our brother
who has fallen in death and will not
awake till the. trumpet shall sound
IN the person of Brother Jas. S.dncy
Giles, who departed this life Dec
1oth. He has conquered death and
gone before His Maker We know
that the principles Of our order took
root in his heart and we have the
sweet consolation that it is we'll with
his soul.
Therefore, be it resolved that in
the death of Bro. Giles, our lodge
lost faithful and true worker and
we thus express our sympathy and
sorrow at his death and feel that our
loss is his eternal gain.
lit further resolved, that in his
death we may SO live that when the
summons comes to join us in friend
snip, love and truth, the innumerabIe
caravan that moves to the mysteri-
Gus realm where each must take his
seat in the hall of death, there to go
not like the quarry slave, .scourged
one who wraps the drapery of his
couch around him and lies down in
his silent bed beneath the soil of the
earth. Bro. Glles we can ONLY COM
mend thee to God who rules and con
trois the heavens and earth and all
thlogs therein. He doeth all things
we'll: The removal Of our brother
from our ranks causes a link In orr
chaln to be broken by the grim mon
stef Death and sooner or later He
Will sever us all; for we too are pass
Ing away. Be it further resolved
that Naomie Lodge be draped in
mourning for 80 days in respect to
MS memory, and mat a copy of these
resolutions be sent to the weekly
paper and the bereaved family and
a copy be spread upon the minutes
Of the Lodge:
heavenly Father, make us one
FAMILY IN friendship, love and truth.
ana may we be found the world
around, the widows tears to dry and
the orphans hearts to cheer"
