He departed this life April 30. 1913, at the age of 66 years. He lived his long and use- full life both as an operative and speculative Mason. For many years he used the trowel to spread the cement of brOtherly love.
 Now may we live so that when the Supreme Master above calls us to lay down our working tools here below, We may be prepared to meet him in joy and peace.
 Resolved. That Mountain Meadow Lodge No. 2iS, F. X A. M., extends the sympathy of it's members to his wife. children and relatives.
 That the lodge hall be draped in mourning and that the members of the lodge wear the usual badge of mourning for the next thirty days. That this memorial and resOlu- tions be spread upon the minutes of the lodge, and a copy be fur nished to the family of the deceased and to the Mena papers, and to Greenville Lodge No 2i5
