Resolutions Of Resnset.

Comrade Carey Fenner died at his
home in Hillsboro on July II, 1908
Another bark has stranded and be-
meath the tempestuous waves of the
great ocean of life, another brave
comrade from our Post has disap-
peared. Again we are called upon to
surrender ours to higher claim of
One who doeth all things we'll. AS a
Christian he was firm and true, kept
the faith until the summons came and
took him to his eternal home.
Comrade Fenner was in his 73rd
year when he died. He belonged to a
family that stands first in the history
of our country. Having nine brothers
that with him answered to their
country's call tomaintain our national
integrity and unity during the great
conflict between the North and the
South. Carey enlisted In Company A,
Second Battalion, Ohio Independent
Cavalry. True patriotism made him
and his brothers as valiant soldiers as
ever answered bugle call.
Robert Jackson, colored man, who
was raised by Stephen and Sarah
Fenner, the parents of the boys, also
enlisted and stood the test with his
white comr AIDES, and amid blood aud
carnage, the rattle of musketry and
the roar of cannon, they figured in
the battle line and we're always found
where the fight grew the hottest and
the shot and shell flew the thickest
Very remarkably they all escaped
death, were honorably discharged
and returned home to their loyal
father and mother.
Reso we'd, That these resolutions be
published in the papers of your city
and put on the minutes of John M.
Barrere Post, No. 205, of which Carry
Fenner was an honorable member and
a copy sent by the adjutant to the
sorrowing family, who have the SYM
pathy and highest regards of the
members in this time of great sorrow
and bereavement.

ModastY.

Modesty is supposed to have come
over in the MayAower, along with the
story of Rebecca at the Well Since
then Boston has become psychological
and modestY has a subliminal self.
There is a tradition that modesty
once lived in New York, but this has
never been proved. 1t is highly inn
probable, especially as New York has
always had a smart set.
Modesty was visitor at the White
House during the Civil War and
shortly before. Since then she has
received no further invitation. If
modesty should appear there now,
Heaven would doubtless be too timid
to extend a helping hand.
Modesty, indeed, is a recluse. Her
pew in church has been given up.
She never had a box at the opera.
She would not dare be operated in
any hospital. The children would
disconcert her in any home. With
no roof to shelter her, no nourishment
to sustain her, she walks the untrod-
den paths, miserable and di,con.

Marty is hard game himself. While
he doesn't compare with Driscou as a
