Resolutions of Condolence. Whereas, the merciful and benefio ient ruler and Father of all has called our brother from the scenes and activities of this life into the eternal world; and M hereas. He in His boundless mercy doeth all things well, though oftentimes His dispensations be shrouded in mystery to us and lead us into deep mourning, because o ur finite minds are unable to fathom them. Therefore, be it Resolved, That we as brothers bow in humble submission to His will, and while we so deeply mourn our loss we most sincerely join in extending our sympathy to the grief-stricken family and pray that the Holy One may administer to them ‘ the oil of joy for mourning and beauty for ashes. ” Resolved, That we cherish and emulate the noble traits that char, acterized the life of our dei>arted both in living among us not for self only, but in the exemplification of the true teachings of our order in that of bettering all by kindness and good deeds with whom he associated and came in contact. Resolved, That we spread, these resolutions upon our minutes, forward a copy to the bereaved family and also a copy for publication to the papers of the city. L. C. Helm, E. Brushwiller, L. C. Miller, Committee. For real bargains attend our December reduction sale this week at The South End Bargain store.
