President Joseph Quincy
The first speaker was President Jo-
seph Quincy, h life long friend OF
deceased. He said in part: There Is
no young man who has grown up in
our midst who has had a cleaner
moral life. l do not recall the time
when ever saw him angry or heard
him speak an unkind word. This
thing that we call death is surrounded
by mystery, yet believe that the
same law that governs death, gov
erns Immortality. l believe that some
time I shall meet George F. Thatch-
er again and shall shake him by the
hand and that the same FRIENDSHIP
that has existed between us here
shall be exhibited at that time. God
bless the memory of George r
Thatcher is my prayer, amen.
Hon. A. G. Barber
Friends have not come hundreds Of
miles to attend these services with
out cause, said Hon A. G.. Barber
who spoke next. But they are here
because they counted George F..
Thatcher their friend. We loved him
sind we are glad to do him honor to-
day. because of his character and the
life he has lived among US. He has
demonstrated to his associates that
he was honest and he has therefore
gained the confidence OF his Fellow
men. He was man who was kind to
animals and such a man can usually
be trusted. George F. Thatcher did
the things in this life that true reli
gion demands of men. Peace to his
=, memory. God bless his mother, his
brothers and sisters.
