Resolutions of Odd Fellows.
To the officers and members of Star
Lodge No. 164, I. 0. 0. F.
Your committee begs leave to sub¬
mit the following :
On Monday morning Feb. 15, 1909,
the hand of death was thrust into our
lodge and claimed as its victim our
beloved brother, James Paty Sain.
Brother Sain was born at Viola, Tenn.
Aug. 26, 1869. He moved from ’ the
scene of his boyhood to Marrietta.
Ga., about the year 1890, where he
lived one year, being employed in the
jewelry store of J. H. Bates & Co. He
then located at Acworth, Ga. There
he joined the Independent Order of
Odd Fellows and was elected to fill
the highest office in the lodge. On
Oct. 12, 1893, he was married to Miss
Bessie Watson. Two tons, Leonard
and Lawrence, blessed this union.
In March 1905 he with his family
moved to Covington where he was
engaged in the jewelry business until
his death.
He began failing in health some
months before his death, but bore his
suffering with patience and Godly
resignation, without a murmur, grasp¬
ing with stronger hold on things eter¬
nal, with the assurance of heaven and
a rest in that peaceful home, “not
made with hands,” where there is no
suffering, no pain, no death. He
greeted his friends with kind words,
and a smile which beamed from his
genial nature.
He was a Past Grand of the Ac
worth lodge and also of our lodge
here. He was an Odd Fellow in spirit
and truth, putting forth his energy
for the betterment of the order, striv¬
ing daily to live according to the
tenets, Friendship, Love and Truth.
His genial spirit was admired, not
only by the membership of our lodge,
but by all with whom he came in con¬
tact. No kindness he could render
his friends was ever withheld from
them.
Therefore be it resolved: 1st That
while we humbly submit to the will
of the all wise God, we sincerely re¬
gret the loss of our friend and broth¬
er, J. P. Sain.
2nd. That in the death of Brother
Sain our lodge has lost one of its
truest members, the town a good cit¬
izen, the business world an honest
associate, the individual a true friend
and the church a Christian gentleman.
3rd. That a copy of the resolutions
be spread upon the record book of
our lodge; a copy be presented to the
family of our deceased brother; and
the same be published in both, the
Covington Enterprise and Covington
