Concord Lodge No. 401, F. and A.M

In Memory of Bro. W.C. Banks,
Who was born June 15, 1829
Died Dec. 30, 1896

Whereas it has pleased the founder of the universe and the giver of life to 
remove from our midst and transport his soul to the realms above where all 
travelers return, our much esteemed and faithful brother, W.C. Banks,

Be it resolved by the Concord Masonic Lodge, now met, that while we submit with 
brotherly love and meekness to the Divine will of a just, tender and merciful 
Providence, we can but lament the death of our brother,

Resolved 2nd that we tender to his bereaved wife and children our heartfelt 
sympathy, and point them for comfort and peace to God who doeth all things for 
the best,

Resolved 3rd that this preamble and resolutions be spread upon the Minutes of 
our order, that a copy be sent to the family of our deceased brother, and that 
the Pike County Journal be requested to publish the same.
