  Auburn, Placer County, California, USA; PLOT: 7; MEMORIAL ID: 42567788; Note: DEATH OF WALTER B. LYON, GRAND SECRETARY, IOOF. This community was shocked on the receipt of the news of the death of W. B. Lyon, Grand Secretary of the California Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows, which occurred at his home in Alameda last Saturday evening. Mr. Lyon was a California pioneer, having come to the state in 1850, being then a boy of 15 years of age. He settled early in Placer County where his manly traits and business ability won him friends and attracted attention to him as one worthy trust. After following mining for a while, he entered into the drug business at Iowa Hill and followed that until early in the '60s when he was elected to the office of County Recorder. He served as Recorder and as Deputy in the Recorder's Office and in other offices around the Court House until November 1872, when he was elected editor and business manager of the Placer Argus, then owned and run by a joint stock company. He served in this capacity for about 14 months, when he was succeeded by Mr. McNeil. He was a member of Auburn Lodge of Odd Fellows No. 7, and always took an active and intelligent interest in the order. In 1875 he became a candidate before the Grand Lodge for the position of Grand Secretary and was elected. He filled the office with eminent ability and was re-elected at each recurring Grand Lodge from that time up to the time of his death. Of late years he was recognized as being better versed in the law of Odd Fellowship than any other man in the state. Upon ritualistic and constitutional matters, he was a recognized authority. He was a member of Templar Rebekah Lodge and of Oriental Encampment and was a Past Grand Representative from this state to the Sovereign Grand Lodge. At the last Grand Encampment, he was made Grand Scribe of that order. On his election as Grand Secretary, Mr. Lyon moved with his family from Auburn to San Francisco where he resided until about a year ago when he took up his residence in Alameda. His death was very sudden and is supposed to have been caused from paralysis. Mr. Lyon was related by marriage to J. W. Ferguson of the Fresno Expositor, and to A. A. Ferguson of Dutch Flat, and also to ex-Sheriff John Butler of Colfax. The remains were brought to Auburn on Wednesday evening, escorted by a large delegation of prominent Odd Fellows from different parts of the state. A special train bearing several hundred Odd Fellows from Sacramento and the First Artillery Band arrived at 9 o'clock Thursday morning. He was buried here in Odd Fellows Cemetery on Thursday. The attendance was very large, there being many present from a distance, and his old neighbors turned out in mass as a last opportunity to show respect to his memory. The funeral services were held at the Opera House and were conducted by the Grand Officers, assisted by Rev. John Chisholm and a choir composed of Mrs. R. F. Rooney, Mrs. A. D. Fellows, Dr. J. L. Rollins, and F. A. Tyler, Jr. Mr. Lyon leaves a wife and two grown sons, Walter T., publisher of the Selma Irrigator, and George E., an artist at present employed on the Examiner. The heart of this community goes out to them in sympathy in this hour of their great bereavement. [Placer Herald, Auburn, 11-11-1893] (https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/42567788/ly)⁴
