At the organization of our Lodge, you took an active part, and as an officer, your services have been highly appreciated by the Members. As a Citizen your career has been that of an honest, straightforward man, conducting yourself at all times in a courteous manner, thus winning the good will and regard of all. Permit me, in behalf of the Members of this Circle, to present you with this Dressing Case and address, which we ask you to accept, not in any way as a compensation adequate to your deserts, but as a token of our admiration of your faithful discharge of self-imposed duties, and our appreciation of the same. We have, after you depart, monuments by which to remember you, and which will call up happy memories of pleasant associations. May Heaven's benediction rest upon you, and yours in all your journeyings through life, and if in the order of Providence, we may never meet you again face to face, may we meet you, when the corruptible bodies shall have put on in incorruption, and the mortal have put on in mortality.
