count of his ill-health and the feeling
that he must conserve his strength,
that our recorder, who has served us
faithfully since the organization of our
commandery, deems it necessary to
tender his resignation. Sir knight Nc
CARNEY was one of the original or
ganizers of our commandery and dur
ing its early history bore a large por-
ton of the burden of making it the
wonderful success it has become. He
was one of the ringleaders, among the
Faithful Few" who bore the brunt
of the fight that was made against our
commandery when it was being organ
lied. The membership is therefore
deeply indebted to him and feel sure
they will learn with regret of his de-
cision. Let's all come out to our next
meeting and wish Sir knight Mozart
ney an early recovery and show our
appreciation of his long and faithful
services. Sincerely and courteously
