O grave where is thy victory?” “For the first time in the history of the Decatur Rotary Club, death, the great enqmy oi all Who live, has (titered our ranKs and taken from among us. one of our most beloved members. "Charles S. Niblick, was born in Decatur, Indiana, on October 19th,, 1866. and died October 28th. 1925. ( “Nearly all his life was spent with the Old Adams County Bank, the first ; bank.ng institution to be organized ' in Adams County, and since 1906 he has been its President. Ho was likewise connected with many other organizations of the city and County. He was a prominent citizen and fore- ' most in all the developments of our community, for half a century.

tian in all his thoughts-and deeds. "To hundreds of men. women am children of this community he has been a counselor, friend and bene factor. No person however humble, or poor or even unworthy, ever sough, his favor in vain, if it was in his power to grant It, and no matter however much the sacrifice was to him personally. "He believed that the unkind word was a liability rather -than an asset, and kindness and gentleness were in his every thought and word. "His home life was beautiful. He was devoted to his family, and builded a fire-side endowed with a bond of affection that only death can sever. "But our own Charlie Niblick is dead. He has crossed the Great Divide. He has played his part well and filled his post with honor. The , unfaltering trust we hold in the wisdom of our God tells us that the 'father will not slay his child; that the Creator will not destroy his ' master piece; that the l.ght of in telligence that shown out through the 'soul of our departed friend and broth--1 er lives and shines again in the pres--1 ence of his God. "Other men may have had more wealth, other men may have had more opportunity to do good, othet men have had more friends, but only because they had a wider acquaintance, other men may have had fewer faults, but no man has lived among us, who had a more defined and keen er sense of honor, justice, honesty land right, who loved to see equit) given more, who respected the con vietions and faith of others kindlier, and who did his full duty as he saw

It, better than Charlie Niblick. "He has gone from among ua; he sleeps away from the bustle and conflicts of lite. Tne summer grass and the winter snow will in turn cover his i silent mound, the world will move on. and the years will pass In rapid succession until we all shall have joined him, but the Influence of his life on the lives of those he leaves behind him, shall never die. "We sorrow with his bereaved fam ,ly and we extend our deepst sympathy to them, yet through our tears we cannot but rejoice that he has gone to receive a reward worthy of a whole life-time effort to possess. "I cannot say, I will not say That he Is dead—he Is Just away. With a cheery smile, and a wave of the hand Ho has wondered Into an unknown land, And left us dreaming how very fair It needs must be, slope he lingers there. Think of him still the same. I aay; He Is not dead, he Is just away." "Let us emulate his.virtues, and may peace be to his soul. "Respectfully submitted, C. E. Bell. L, E. Sommers, C. C. Rayl, Dore B. Erwin, Fellowship Committee. "Read and adopted by the Decatur Jotary Club, this 29th day of October. 1925. "A. R. Holthou.se, President. "H. J. Gager, Secretary.”
