Supreme Master.
Brother Brown became an Odd Eel
low February 26th, 1896. and has since
that time been a most exemplary
member OF our beloved order. Few
brothers have so truly and consist
emily stood for the principles of
Friendship, Love and Truth.
He was a dispenser of cheer and
brightness in every circle in which he
moved. We shall not soon forget his
cordial smile and the hearty wave of
his hand. Although he had attained
height in life that few men reach. he
was not above meeting and greeting
the humblest member of his commun-
ity.
Furthermore. the brother whose
death we mourn was a friend OF all.
There Is saying which by its uni
versal acceptance and irrefutable
truth Is neither sectarian nor parti-
san. Greater love hath no man than
this, that man lay down his life for
his friends" Our brother used his
life in the service of men. He lent a
helping hand to every one in need who
was worthy. He never passed by on
the other side of duty No cry Of
pain or sorrow fell upon his ears un-
needed.
Again his face was ever toward the
light. He found common cause with
all who as an end in life seek those
eternal verities which tend to make
men happy and pure and free.
In his death we realize the loss of
one whose worth was inestimable.
The lodge feels highly honored in hav-
ing had such a distinguished name up
on it's roll
And whereas, the all-wise and mer-
ciful master has called our beloved
and respected brother home; and
Whereas, he having been a true and
faithful brother to our mystic order {:
therefore, be il
Resolved, That Kingwood Lodge No.

tender to the family of our deceased
brother our sincere coincidence in
their deep affliction, and that copy
