   DIED.-- At his residence, near Iola, Judge
A. W. J. Brown, aged 51 years. The deceased was
universally respected by all who knew him, and his
loss will be severely felt in this County. He has been
an honored member of Iola Lodge No 33, A. F. and A. M.,
for a number of years.

     At a special communication of Iola Lodge, No. 38
A.F. & A. M., called for the purpose of attending the
funeral of Brother A. W. J. Brown, a committee was
appointed to draft resolutions, who reported the following
preamble and resolutions, which were unanimously 
adopted:
   WHEREAS. It has pleased the Supreme Architect of the
Universe to summon from his labors, our beloved Brother
A. W. J. Brown, calling him by his Omnipotent will, to 
that judgement which awaits all who are toiling in this
earthly temple; and
   WHEREAS, The Masonic ties that have so long bound
as in mutual friendship and enjoyment to our departed
friend, are severed, no more to be re-united until
the day when the grave shall yield up its dead; therefore
   Resolved, That we sincerely mourn this disruption
of covenanted friendship, bearing in tender remembrance
his ever-willing help in charity, his fidelity to Masonry,
and his devotion to  the principles it inculeates.
   Resolved, That we earnestly sympathize with the 
relatives and friends of our deceased Brother, and tender
them that consolation which the world can neither
give nor take away; and that we will wear the usual
badge of mourning for the space of thirty days.
   Resolved, That a copy of this preamble and resolutions
be forwarded to the famiy of our deceased Brother, and 
inserted in the Neosho Valley Register and Humboldt
Union.
