Your committee on resolutions in regard to the death of our late brother, J. T. Hussey, ask leave to submit the followig as our report:

Whereas it has pleased the Supreme Architect of the Universe to remove from our midst our esteemed and much beloved brother J. T. Hussey, and being desirous to pay a feeble tribute to his memory,

Resolved:

1.  That in the death of Bro. Hussey, this lodge sustained a loss which cannot be easily supplied; a member noted for his fidelity to the principles on which our order is founded, and who was always ready to exend a charitable hand to a brother or stranger in distress; one who faithfullyserved the people in this community, who loved his family and his friends; and one whose chief delight and aim seemed to be to promote the happiness of others,

Resolved:

2. As a mark of our esteem, that this hall be draped in mourning and the  usual badge be worn for 30 days; that a page of our records be set apart and dedicated to his memory; that his family be furnished with a copy of these resolutions, and that a copy be furnished each newspaper in the county with a request to publish same.

Respectfully submitted:
