Resolutions Passed by Concor'
dia Lodge on Death of
Capt. Brunson.

Capt. William H. ssBrunson was q
lifelong citizen of Edgefeld coun.
ty, and in probity of character and
patriotic love of his country he was
second to none. In his young man
hood he was called to enter the
Civil War, and through its long and
bitter course he discharged his du
ties as a soldier with conspicuous
courage, fidelity and ability. In
spite of his naturally modest and
unassuming nature, these qualities
won for promotion to the rank Of
Captain. After the war he returned
to his duties as citizen, and in
common with many heroic sons Of
the south, in the gloomy years
which followed the war, he helped
to bring about that reconstruction
which was the basis OF the welfare
of his country. For the past 26 years
he has served as postmaster at
Edgefeld and the efficient and
faithful manner in which he dis
charged his duties, enabled him to
hold the place even during Repub-
lican administrations. For many
years he has lived among us as a
quiet, unobtrusive citizen, and has
Eanietly stood for those things be
felt best for his country's interest.
He was for many years Mason and
a member of Concordia lodge, and
in his death we feel that our lodge
in common with our community
and county has sustained a severe
loss. Desiring to give some express
sion to our appreciation of his life
and our sorrow at his death, we de-
sire to offer the above statement as
a fitting memorial to a life so sim
ply, usefully and patriotically lived
in our midst. Therefore, be it re-
solved:
lst. That in the death of Capt.
William Fl. Brunson, our lodge has
lost a true and faithful member and
our community an upright and pa
triotic citizen
2nd. That while we mourn his
death, we are grateful for the whole
some and useful life he lived, and
the good memory that his life leaves
with US.
3rd. That we extend to the mem
bers of his family our heart felt
sympathy in..their bereavement.
3rd: That these resolutions be in
scribed in the minutes of the lodge,
and that they be published in the
Edgefeld papers.
4th: And a copy be sent the fami-
ly.
Respectfully submitted.
