OBITUARY..
EDMUND FRANKLIN MAN
CHESTER.

News has been received of the death
of Edmund Franklin Manchester on
April 16 at his home in Grerneville,
California. The following is from the
Grernevile Times:
Mr.. 4 Manchester came to Creme
vile in 1894 and has resided here since
that time. Shortly after settling in
Grernevile Mr.. Manchester became a
member of Redwood Lodge, No. 2S1,
l.. o. OFF, and continued to be an
earnest member to the end of his days
He took as deep an interest in the
lodge as he did in everything else for
the good of the community in which he
resided, and was chosen for offices by
the members of his lodge at different
times, filling the various chairs with
credit to himself and honor to the
lodge. At the time of his death he
was a Past Noble Grand of Redwood
Lodge.
Upon the resignation of Mr.. Clyde
Ayers from the office of justice of
the peace in June, 1914, Mr.. Manchester
was appointed to fill the office for the
uneXpired term. He made such a good
record during his term that when he
sought election last November for the
full term the voters showed their CON
fidence byl.electing him by handsome
majority.
The funeral took place Monday,
April ne, from the family resid-
ence and was held under the auspices
of Redwood Lodge. Professor David
Locktom, Past Noble Grand, assisted
by Chaplain d. P. Pengh, conducted
the services at the house and at the
grave. There was large attendance
of friends and acquaiA tances. The
floral offerings were numerous and
beautiful, one a pillow of choice
flowers, with the letters L O. O. F.
in the center was the handiwork of
Mrs. David Locktom.
with his passing the community has
lost an upright citizen and the family
has its fullest sympathy in the loss of
loving and devoted husband, father,
brother and grandfather.
