The association will afford a cheap life insurance to Free Masons, and will be far safer to insure in than any gilt-edged foreign insurance company. It costs but five dollars to become a member and only $1.10 of an assessment when any member dies. The officers of this company are Zack DeGroat, President; A. L. Bartholomew, Secretary and Treasurer and J. F. H. Sugg, General Superintendent.
