liowevqr in juuico to all parties to ask a
smpensi'in of publio opinion till the truth

Tilts is tho more just beoause the death of
Mr. Neighbors waj preceded by a series of
circumstances whioh have to bo known
luit'jro n correct opinion oati be formed.
No one nt this time in possession of tboso
facts Would like to make a statement of
them when aware that ho (or they) may
bo called upon us a witness in tbe trial of
Messrs. Murphy und Cornet. Mr Murphy

It hath iilt-meit Almighty God in hia Providence
to take from na our Brother Hrrry W. Stni.RTT
who departed trite life nn the morning of the 4th
of October. UU
Urn Huhl.'tt waa a native of Kentuck) . he em.
grated to Teiaa at an early age and aettleil in
Han Ana mtlne county in I Kill. He there aruilied
the prnteailnn of the law and came to the bar
about the year 1P10. Ilia talents and energy anon
placed hiiu prntnlnently before the people of that
County and Uiatrlet. In 184H be was elected aa
on of the (Icproientattvas ol mat county to the
State Legialature where though young he dis-
tiuguiahetl klmaelf aa a leadiag politician from

time represented this District In the State Senate
with great credit to himself and at other tinie
he haa been pit forward by his friends as a can-
didate for other high offices both State and Dis-
trict. A man who has thus oceupie' prominence be
fore the public will uounness maae enemiea;
hut the worst of those (If there are any) will be
forced to admit that he waa dlatlngulahed for hia
atraight forward honesty bis candor and his in-
dexible firmness and resolution while bis frienda
and those who knew him beat will reeoguiss In
him the ever hopeful and cheerful naturn that
gives the social Intercourse its greatest charm
and will remember and regret blm as a pure
hearted benevolent and high toned gentleman
full to overflowing with all the kindly feeling of
our nature which eaued him to bo beloved by
all who knew blm Wherefore
ftitnlnd. That this Lodge has ttat in Ilia death
a worthy Mann society a useful meinher hia
urofeaalon an ornament hl friends and associates
a bright aud joyous nature the weak and help-
less a disinterested and benevolent friend and
hia larallv. the most devoted of husbands and
kindest nf fathers.
Ruofotil That we recommend the practice of
the virtuoi which so distinguished him to those
who desire to be beloved or wlh to be useful.
Itetohtd That we deeply mourn his loss and
offer our sympathy to his distressed family and
frinda.
Raolrvl That these resolutions be spread upon
the minutes nf the Lodge and a copy ot them bo
