      RESOLVED, That in the death of Bro. Ludwig the company has lost a sober and reliable engineer, his associates a warm friend, his family a devoted husband and kind father, and Division No., 144 one of its most worthy members.
      RESOLVED, That we tender his loving wife and son our sympathy in this hour of their affliction, and commend them to Him who has promised to care for the widow and orphan.
      RESOLVED, That our hall and charter be draped in mourning for the space of thirty days, also thanking Pine City Lodge No. 81, B. L. E., of this city, for their attendance and helping to pay the last tribute of respect to our brother.
      RESOLVED, That a copy of these resolutions be entered on the minutes of our Division, a copy furnished to the family of our late brother, also published in the city papers.
