AROUND THE CORNER We learn less wisdom from what Is told us than from what we observe. Some men look back and find that life has been made up mostly of the things they’ve missed.

I'' < > | HISTORY OF SYRACUSE ‘ SETTLED IN 1835 I * The following is taken from the | history of Syracuse and Lake W»- ■ wasee, compiled by George W. j Miles, and printed in the Syracuse | Journal weekly, in 1909: » In June of the following year the lodge held its first memorial service. Some of its present members have isked me to republish the address deliveied over the giave of their brother at that time, and at risk of teing accused of vanity I am going !o reprint it here. 1 quote from the’ Syracuse Regiser, Ed. C. Gr. hm, editor and proprietor, date June 14, 1894, as. follows: “Notwithstanding the excessively hot weather a large number of people and the Syracuse Rand accompanied K. of P. lodge 230 east of town to Lake Bethel Cemetery, where was witnessed a most beautiful and impressive ceremony at the rrave of the late Benj. F. Crow, last Sunday, June 10, at 3 p. m. After all had arrived at the ceme ery and the band h d rendered a choice .election, the people present, with he band and the lodge at their herd, narched to the grave where a short ceremonial was read, at the close, pf which the grave was decorated vith a wealth of fine flowers. Chanellor Commander Geo. Miles then >aid an eloquent tribute to t£e departed brother in the following eulogy: "My Friends and My Bi others: “We come today ’to perform one pf our saddest, sweetest dut es, by paying tribute, in this fitting manper, to one we loved, and by reviving memories of his virtues, which were many, and which 1 hope not one of us will fail to emulate. "The most precious of all man’s acuities is memory. True there ; re emembrances that we w< uld have •lotted dut if we . could, but the [ pleasant ones always by far predom- I mate. Deprived of memory, man j .vould be an imbecile, and his fond- I .st pleasures would be hateful to j him. King Reason himself would be othirig without the help of memory, Which accumulates facts and holds ’ hem for him to practise his art upon . "There are those who’ iell us that I .n that future state of happiness we t II fondly hope to attain, all will be ew; that we will be born into it I • such as we were into this, bringing one of the old loves with us. I scarcely prefer their doctrine to that ’ •f the atheist who assures me that : to have novfuture existance at 11. If the persoi#who secures the ‘ i lace 1 may earn'' in heaven will have no recollections of this life, al<hough I am he and he is I, what interest can 1 have in him? If I am • esponsible for his existance I can- | not help it. I have never seen him. I never can see him. He is a perfect stranger to me and must always re- ; main so. I hopte his futuie may be a happy one, but I confess it were scarcely worth the trouble for me to try to Secure such a slate for him. I if, when I go down to the grave, all the old loves are to be buried, all the old friendships Blotted out, j ail the old memories forgotten; if I : am to know my wife no more, and * my children are to be strangers to j me, let me sleep on forever, for a . iesurrection will mean nothing td me. "I can conceive of no greater b«ppinesS than can come to any man ' than to l»e reunited with friends and I .cherished ones who have been lost ; to him. And until the time when the 1 great blessing may be granted him • (perhaps the next greatest is to remember them as when he was blessed with their presence. This latter we « may enjoy here today. And until we shall enter the great beyond and . be permitted to see our lost one as he is, let us be thankful that ever > faithful memory will place him be- | fore us as he was a little more than ■ a year ago. We may hear the old • ringing, cheerful laugh, we may ! feel again the kindly, genial, un- J selfish presence; we may be warmed J anew in the sunshine of his friend- I ship. “Here before us, wrapped in the * cold clay and the green sod, lies the > poor handful of earth to which na- ! ture has returned the form we loved I to meet. No fitter place could have I been found for . its burial. Across I these fields and through there w<*ods • his infant feet have pattered over many paths. Here did he attend the ‘ district school; here was preached i to him regularly the Word of the Great Master. This horizon, these skies—all these scenes were familiar to him from his boyhood. Here he was born, where every object to associated with memories of his happiest days, let him sleep. The birds

that sing above his tomb at morn j are not unfamilith with his fate; yon stream, as it flows slowly by this t hallowed spot, will murmur softly •of the days long gone by when it washed his naked feet, and the trees whi(.ffiS<rgh sadly » h eir story of the ! pranks he played beneath their soft shadows or among their boughs. Here ; no sight may meet the eye, no sound may greet the ear, but his name will come with it. Here may he rest in peace. "There was not, neither is there, any manlier, kindlier, more unselfish one than he. His every thought seemed to be for the welfare of those about him. His generosity to others was so great as to oft times make him ungenerous to himself. A lodge made up of members like him would in truth be an ideal one. - Happy would we be could he have | been spared to us and to his family, which was dearer to him than life itself; but in the springtime of -life, ere his sun had reached its summer solitice, death sent its poiosned arow into his, breast, ard he fell and was lost to us. No greater loss could have befallen our lodge. These flowers will speak for us to- I day better than any poor words of nine, for they are symbols that apeal to the heart, and the tongue ' ■as no language in which the heart an converse. I assure all present, | ' wwever, that the duty we perform j e is not done because our law (.impels it. The hands that place hese flowers are willing hands, -’riendship and love have- brought is here, and of all masters, these are the pleasantest to serve. The abor thjs poor demonstration has cost has been a labor of love. “And now we are about to return to our homes, again leaving our lost brother here. But memories of him will go with us. The sunshine of his kindly, generous, unselfish nature, iqid his warm friendship will remain with us throughout the years that are to come, and will make us better j Knights, better friends and belter • citizens.” | I 1 sat down, one afternoon with Frederick Butt, and he gave me the names of all those who had enlisted from Syracuse in the war for the • union that he could remember at the ’time. There were 114 of them when Iwe finished. I gave the list to the printers two weeks ago, but they made a mistake in putting it in type i and left out one line, or two names J as follows: Benjamin Cable Hiram Bonor So only 112 were printed. Now neither Mr.. Butt nor myself supposed that it was a complete list of all those who went to the war from here, and I asked at the time that any omissions be noted so that they might be included in a future paper. j The first one to call on me and to .correct me was Theodore Sheffield, who, besides noting the omission of Benjamin Cable informed me that . also his brother, Charles Sheffield was a soldier in the war of the i republic. ; Now’, I very well remember Chas. Sheffield. He was a justice of the peace in the township for several • jears after the war, and one of its ; —:

And then came Daniel Searfoss, our night policeman, with a number of names to add to my list: Job Sharp, William Ruple, John McClintic, John Alexander Clemens, Levi Wogoman, Martin V. Crum, William Wogoman, Adam Hammon, John H. Mick, John Long, (son of Jacob Long}, Alien Hoover, Eli Fetters and Thomas Jones; a very considerable list of forgotten flames. And then, Fred Hinderer reminded I me that I had missed Elias Rapp and i George Howser. Then a letter from my good ' friend Andrew Strieby says: “I see in your list of soldiers you missed a good many of my chums and i friends of mj'Wyounger days. To begin with, there is John Clemens,

Last week in giving the names of the charter members of Kosciusko Lodge No. 230, who are still members of that lodge, I missed the name of John Hendrickson, hnd I am under obligations to Otis C. Butt present keeper of records and seal, for calling my attention to the omission. y * -' 1 So that, of the original twentytwo, who organized the lodge in 1889, nine are members instead of eight as stated before. I ought to add that the lodge now has an even hundred members. TRY^A JOURNAL WANT AD . ■ >
