The committee reported as follows: Whereas, it has pleased Almighty God to remove from our midst in the morning of manhood, our beloved brother, HENRY G. ANDREWS, who by his many virtues, spotless integrity, purity of purpose and energy of character, had endeared himself to all who knew him: Resolved, That we recognize in his death the hand of God and humbly bow to his holy will. That whilst we live, we will ever cherish his memory and endeavor to imitate his virtue. That whilst we sorrow at the great loss we have sustained in the death of our esteemed brother, we most deeply sympathize with his aged mother and relatives in their greater loss. That we do heartily tender to the members of the Kilwinning, North Carolina and Pee Dee Lodge, our grateful acknowledgment for their kindness and attention to our deceased brother during his illness and for their promptness in sending the corpse to the family graveyard. Resolved, That a blank page in our record be inscribed to his memory. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the family of the deceased, and published in the North Carolina Argus. J.
