Middle Ga Argus
W. F. Swan
In memorium

Whereas God in his wisdom has seen fit to remove from our midst our beloved 
brother, W. F. Swan, it becomes us as his brothers and members of this Lodge to 
pay this or last tribute of respect to the memory of our departed brother.


And whereas we, the members of St. John’s Lodge F. and A. M. No. 45, 
acknowledging the justice of God in thus removing our brother, we cannot help 
mourning his loss.  Therefore:

Resolve.  1st.  That we bow in humble submission to the will of Him who doeth 
all things well.  And in reviewing his life we recognize the fact that he is 
not dead but sleepeth, and that his example as a Mason will bear fruit for many 
long years to come.

2nd.  That this Lodge has lost a consistent and zealous member, and the 
community a good and true citizen. 

3rd.  That to his bereaved relatives and friends we tender our sympathies and 
point them to one who tempers the winds to the shorn lambs.

4th.  That a blank page of our record book be devoted to his memory and the 
date of his birth, death, etc., be inscribed thereon, and that in further 
memory of our brother we wear the usual badge of mourning for thirty days.

5th.  That these resolutions be published in the Middle Georgia Argus and 
Jackson News and that a copy of the same be presented to the sister of our 
deceased brother.

J. H. McCallum, D. J. Thaxton, Samuel McKibben, Committee
