‘Uncle’ Henry Van Ostrand Has Record for Long " Membership. / “Uncle” Henry Van Ostrand, 88, of 426 Kentucky avenue, Evansville, who is the oldest Odd Fellow in the world in point of years of membership, treasures a small pin of gold, the only “65-year jewel” of Odd Fellowship in existence. Doing fraternal work is his hobby. He joined the lodge in Philadelphia in 1863, but later moved his membership to Morning Star lodge, Millbury, Mass., where he still retains his voting place. Zeal Is Unabated Years have not minimized his zeal for service in the order. He still spends most of his time visiting lodges and making speeches. For three years he has spent his winters in Evansville, visiting his 1 daughter, Mrs. Nellie Legg, wife of Professor H. F. Legg, religizus education instructor, Evansville college. At present he belongs ,to six lodges, Franklin lodge No. 90, Masonic, Ballston Spa, N. Y., which he joined in 1868, being his chief interest. In the same city he is a member of the Eastern Star and Royal Arch chapters, and is a member of the Hirma council, Worcester, Mass., together with the Odd Fellow memberships jae holds at Philadelphia and Millbury. The tiny jewel he wears has opened doors of private lodge councils all over the United States tj> his presence. “My jewel has gained me special privileges at every" Odd Fellow lodge that I ever have visited,” he said. Held Many Offices Faithfulness to service has distinguished his work in club and other circles as well. Born in Rock City Falls, N. Y„ he lived there forty years, serving as postmaster twenty-one years and school trustee nine years. After relocating in Millbury in 1882 he was trustee of the Methodist church for forty-three years, and treasurer of Quartet lodge, A. O. W. for twenty-five years. His lodge connections have brought him in contact with many notables, including Abraham Lincoln, the first President for whom he cast a vote. He has traveled thousands of miles and still enjoys a good movie. Interest in lodge work Is only natural for him, considering he comes from a long line of Masonic ancestors. His great grandfather,.
