ODD FELLOWS’ ROLL-CALL. 
(Continued from page 2] 
been interested in its best welfare. I 
have led in as outside conductor 138 
members. I have never been absent 
from lodge when in town and well, 
and I am glad tosee the lodge take in 
oung members now.”’ 
_ After roll call H. through M., the 
quartet again sang. A letter from 
Deacon F. A. P. Killam, was read with 
much interest, and Samuel Knight re- 
sponded to his name with a few 
remarks. 
' “Tam a long time out of training, ”’ 
said Mr. Knight, ‘‘and for me to at- 
tempt to follow so many of our broth- 
ers who have been for a long time in 
training would be foolish. I should 
be sorry to go home tonight though, 
without in some way showing my ap- 
preciation for the kindness shown me. 
_ I believe this is the first time I have 
been out after 5 o’clock for three 
months. My brother Rust saw me 
standing on one leg leaning against a 
neighbor’s fence this morning and said 
to me that out of the depths of his 
heart he wanted me to come tonight. 
I knew he meant what he said, and 
that coupled with what other brothers 
Mave said, led me to come. ’”’ 
‘ George A. Martin, F. J. Merrill 
and F. P. Knight also responded with 
brief remarks. 
- Oliver T. Roberts responded to the 
‘toast ‘“‘Fraternity’”’ which he said, by 
way of introduction, was the offspring 
of love, and fraternalism, when it crys- 
tallizes, is brotherhood. 
“T believe Odd Fellowship is one of 
_ the orders destined to last. Odd Fel- 
lowship has never beena misfit. I -be- 
‘lieve it will endure because it is 
founded on Friendship, Love and 
Truth. It will endure because this 
principle is eternal.” 
“Odd Fellowship in Manchester,’ 
was responded to by Ex-Rep. F. K. 
Hooper. He spoke in glowing terms 
of Odd Fellowship, and said in part: 
__ “Tassure you it is a very pleasant 
mining for me to be here. I was 
‘initiated into Magnolia lodge 35 years 
‘ago. Odd Fellowship is one of the 
best orders in the world. It is com- 
posed of the best men in the commun- 
‘ity. It must be that the influence of 
the order in Manchester is for the 
good.” 
After the rendition of a very pretty 
“song by Abbott Hoare and the read- 
‘ing of the roll from N through Z, Past 
Grand George Kimball responded to 
the toast ‘‘ Our Sister Lodges.”’ Mr. 
Kimball brightened up his remarks by 
his usual number of jokes and funny 
‘stories. 
“T can say,” said he, in turning to 
“the subject, ‘as any good Odd Fel- 
_ low can say, that our sister lodges are 
a great aid to our Odd Fellowship. I 
must say, that in my 27 years connec- 
tion with the order, I have never seen 
a more cordial lodge on the whole as 
Magnolia. 
“At my church a short time ago 
(several asked the speaker to repeat) 
we had a very good speaker who said, 
when we meeta stranger he is apt to 
‘FRANKLIN K. HOOPER, 
One of the Speakers. 
make a lasting impression on one’s 
mind by what he says, the manner he 
says it and how he looks. If the sis- 
ter lodges will make the impression 
Magnolia lodge has made on me, they 
will make an impression that is last- 
ing.” 
Letters were read from F. A. P. 
Killam, J. N. Lipman, Robert Baker, 
Chas. Rust and S. D. Eldredge. The 
gathering broke up about 10.15, by all 
joining in singing “ Auld Lang Syne.” 
The following verses were read in 
reply to the name of Chas. H. Rust of 
Philadelphia, one of the charter mem- 
bers : 
When this Magnolia blossomed, 
In Brotherly Love, long years ago, 
From far and near we gathered, 
And I was one of ‘‘the Boys” you know. 
The “ Boys” of those days are scattered 
Far from the home of their youth: 
But still to all the magic words 
Of “ Friendship, Love and Truth” 
Bring to them fond remembrances 
Of their Home Lodge far away, 
And many hearts are wishing 
They could be with you today. 
From the City of Brotherly Love 
I send Fraternal Greetings to all, 
And wish that I your hands could take 
In hearty grasp, at this Roll Call.

lodge 19 have died and of the other
