Rev. George McNeal, Pastor.
The early mornig service was well
attended and the presence of the Holy
Spirit was felt. This service always
paves the way for the other services

that he preached a wonderful sermon

of his power. On the account of the
funeral of the late Sir Knight. Rev.
Frank Wilson, we did not have our

u. The funeral services began at
? o'clock p. m. and were not concluded
until lear 6 o'clock. The program
which was rendered was of the very
highest calibre and many were the
words of praise said in commemora-
tion of III late brother. and Gospel
Minister. The Auditorium was in
adequate to accommodate the large
audience that assembled to pay their
last tribute of respects to the deceas-
ed. There was a number of visitors
from out of the city who came to as
sist in the ceremonies. Mrs. A. E.
Hyde continues very i'll and show but
very little improvement, however, we
hope that she will oon begin to mend.
THE funeral of Bro. Jackson Tuck.

young man and had only recently en-
tered the ministry. The church ex
tends her sympathy to the bereaved

A GREAT MAN PASSES our.

Memorial services were held in
honor of Rev. Frank Wilson, Chief
Grand Mentor Knights and Daughters
Of Tabor and Grand Master of the Free
and Accepted Ancient York Masons,
Kansas and Nebraska jurisdiction at
the Pleasant Green Baptist Church,
Sunday August II, 1919.
One of the largest crowds that we
have ever witnessed at a funeral in
Kansas City was in evidence, The
Daughters of Tabor with the Ladies
of the Court formed a line at attention
that reached on both sides of the
street for more than a block and a
half. The procession which escorted
the corps to the church was at least
a mile in length. The crowd that
stood along the line of the procession
was estimated at between five and
six thousand. There was a carriage
loaded to its capacity with beautiful
floral offerings. There was two of the
leading bands of the city in the pro-
cession. Every number of the Knights
Daughters, Master Masons and Sisters
of the Courts were in the procession.
Rev. Frank Wilson was born March
25th, 1854 and departed this life Aug.
I, 1919. He leaves many relatives
and host Of friends who mourn their
loss.

any man with ears could understand.
He is very practicable and uses many

the African tongue and the other in
the English which was a rare musical
treat. Mrs. Malekebu has a beauti.
