a benefactor, an honest and trusted
public servant: possessed of true,
upright and Christian character. He
was a citizen we'll worth patterned.
He is gone to his haven of rest, be-
loved by all.
A. o. FORSBERG-I have always
considered Hon. Andrew Railson as
typical of the best element of the pio-
neers, who developed the wilderness
into garden. His indomitable cour-
age enabled him to overcome the trt.
ais of pioneer life. His fearless and in
dependent spirit, coupled with cool,
deliberate Judgment, made him an
ideal citizen, ever ready to serve the
public when called upon, but never
currying favors or bowling his neck to
a political yoke. The best thing that
can be said of any man is that the
community is better for his having
lived in it, and this can be truthfully
said Of Hon. Andrew Railson.
S. S. GLARUM-From the time
first knew him, SO years ago, until
the last, l have found Andrew Rail-
son to be always the same, true as
steel. In private dealings and in pub
lie life, honest and straightforward.
To me personally, Mr.. Railson was a
close friend, whose memory shall al
ways cherish. saw him a week ago
and realized that the end was near.
He then Indicated that should greet
