JPolhill never gave me the least in
timation that he contemplated any
violence to himself, and I cannot
believe there was such a thought
on his mind when he left the house
on Friday night.

Whereas, the intimate and fra-
ternal relations, so long held by
the deceased, with the members
of their lodge, render it proper
that we place upon record our ap
preciation of his.devotion and fi
delity to “Candler lodge.’ *
Therefore, be it resolved: First,
that we deplore the loss of Broth
er Chandler with deep feelings of
regret; softened only by the con
fident hope that his spirit; is with
those who, having fought the good
fight here, are enjoying perfect
happiness in the Grand Lodge
above.
Second, that the members of
our lodge wear the emblems of
mourning for thirty days, and a
blank page in our book of records
be left to the memory of our de
ceased brother.
Third, that we tender to his af
flicted family our sincere condo
lence and,, profoundest sympathy
in their bereavement; by the loss
of one who was a good citizen, an
upright man, a kind and loving
father and husband and -a devoted
and honored Odd Fellow.
Fourth, that a copy of the fore
going resolutions be placed upon
our minutes, and a copy be trans

Mrs. Hope Polhill Writes of Her

Mrs. Hope Polhill has written
the following to The Macon Tele

her husband and his connection
with Christian science:
Certain rumors as to Mr. Pol-

upon his home life, have reached

UNION MEETING.
Below are the questions for dis-
CQSEion at the union meeting to be
held with Hopewell Baptist church,
beginning Friday before the fifth
Sunday in March:
1. To what cause or causes can
he traced the growing indifference
of a large element -of our church
membership to the work of the
Lord in general, and wherein lies
the remedy?
2. What are the scriptural teach
ings in regard to rebaptism, and
under what circumstances only
should it be practiced?
3. Is it wrong for a Baptist to
ongage in the observance of the
Lord’s supper with other Christian
denominations? If wrong, what
should be done with a member who
Persists in doing so?
4. What should be the attitude
°f north Georgia Baptists to Mer
cer university?
What was the nature of
Christ’s body from the time of the
insurrection until the ascension—
^usit a natural or spiritual body?
6* Why are Christians tempted
| of the devil, and what are the pro
lusions of God’s grace under such j
| Clr cum8tanees?

The work of turning, winter goods into money goes merrily

After supper on that fatal Fri
day night, he talked to me about
“affairs” quite a while, but- the ba
by wa3 not even mentioned in this
conversation. He seemed depressed
about certain occurrences connect
ed with his office as solicitor. But
•we had a sweet and loving talk on
this last night together. I told
him that we must rely more on
God and go to Him with our trou
bles, and right then and there, by
my side, he knelt down and pray
ed, as best he knew, to the Giver
of All Good. I said to him that
it seemed we were both passing
through our Getbsemane, and I
guessed we needed a chastening to
make us purer and better. In my
solicitude I asked him to go for
Christian science help and have a
treatment every day for awhile foi
mental distress and despondency,
and also to have the’scientist treat
his eyes and throat.
He said he would do so, and I
shall always believe he intended
to keep his word.
What fatal circumstance changed
his course, after he went to town
to order some household supplies,
I do not know.
It was not uuusual for him to
go to his office, where his law li
brary was, to study at night. Mr.

Hope Polbill at home was the
same man he was to his friends
and acquaintances outside—happy,
genial, whole-souled. He was one
of the sweetest natures I ever
knew; a light in our household;
loved and loving. Before -observ
ing the workings and benefits of
Christian- science, he was pro-?
nonneed in his opposition*, but a!**
ways with respect for the views,
'wishes and freedom of choice in
others. As he saw me raised from
invalidism to perfect health and
made better and happier, his op
position decreased.

Mr. Polhill himself, weht at mid

other room and slept, satisfied to
leave the child with God and the
