4 GOOD SAMARITAN

The secretary of Monterey Lodge,
I. O. 0. F., has recently received
letter from a California fruit
grower in which he seeks to make
tangible acknowledgement of kind
ness and favors received from one
of it's members, and under peculiar
circumstances.
He says he was travelling on a
west-bound train and was taken
suddenly ill. He was far from
home, his fellow-passengers beings
strangers, and the first man to come
to his help and rescue was Chap.
Halterman, member of the Mon
terey Lodge who was on his way to
California. "He has taken care of
me like baby for days." is his
language, and says he hopes all of
the members are good, true men
and Odd Fellows like Mr.. Halter
man.
As an expression of appreciation
he proposed to senda box of grapes
or figs from his own vinyard in CAL
end asked for information
as to membership so as to provide
a package for each.
Those who know Chap are not
at all surprised to hear of this Incl
dent, because he is "built that
way" and kindness and helpful
ness are characteristic of the aver
age Highlander, at home and
abroad.
