MAHONIO WtHOLUTIONH.
On August l?th, 1901, when the last
ray of the glorious sun kissed the earth
with a halo of brightness and wont
down behind the western horizon, the
spirit of onr venerable friend and es
teemed brother, W. N. Strange, took
its flight to "that country from whose
bourne no traveler has ever returned.”
Death is the saddest and yet the most
glorious incident in human life. But
death is most glorious because the one
who goes is free from dangers, sorrows
and afflictions; because "preoious in
the sight of the Lord is his saints.”
Early in life Brother Strange became
a member of the Presbyteriau church.
Every Sabbath found him in his pew,
and his life was that of a faithful Chris
tian man. He served as Elder of his
church at Rockmart a great many years,
and was Superintendent of the Sunday
School of said church at the time of
his death and had served in that capa
city for the past ten years or more.
Whatsoever his hands fonnd to do that
did he do willingly and cheerfully for
the good of his churoh and for the
cause of humanity.
At the outbreak of the civil war he
joined the Confederate cause and served
as Colonel of Georgia Militia and later
on became Lieutenant of the regular
army, which office he hold to the close
of the war.
At the dose of the war he returned to
his home at VanWert, and has since
then served his people in this immediate
section as Justice of the Peace and
Notary Pnblio for twenty-four years,
and was still serving his people in that
station at the time of his death.
In 1801, Brother Strange joined the
Masonic Fraternity. He has been a
devoted and faithful member ever since,
and has been honored with every sta
tion in the Lodge. He has served Iiock-
mart Lodge as Worshipful Master for
many years.
Ou; brother has gone to his reward,
and as true Masons we are taught to
commend his virtues and cover his
faults with the sweet mantle of charity.
He has written his own epitaph, not in
marble that may mark the last resting
place of his body,but upon the memory
of every one who knows him. And
thus will the end of this earthly life
come to us all. God grant that we may
meet the hour of our departure bravely,
truly and well as he met his.
Resolved, That we tender our loving
sympathies to the family of our de
ceased brother; that we claim him and
his deeds as our goodly heritage and
give praise to the great Architect of the
universe for the wealth we hove in him.
Resolved, That his name be in
scribed in regular form on a memorial
page of our minutes.
Resolved, That a copy of these reso
lutions be sent to the family of our de
ceased brother, and that they ulso be
sent to each of our county papers and
request them to publish same.
