	Whereas it has pleased the Supreme Being of the Universe to 
remove from our midst our late Commander and Comrade J. L. Knight 
who departed this life on Dec. 7th. 1893.

	Whereas the high esteem in which we held our deceased 
Comrade the members of this Post deem it proper that we should 
place on record our appreciation of his services as a Soldier and 
a true comrade of the Grand Army of the Republic. Therefore, be 
it resolved that while we bow with humble submission to the will 
of our Great Commander the most High God, that we pray the hand 
of him that smitest may be a balm for the smitten.

	Resolved by the reason of the death of our Comrade J. L. 
Knight that the flag of this Post our National Emblem be draped 
in mourning for the period of Sixty days: Resolved that these 
resolutions be entered upon the minutes of the Post and a copy of 
them by sent to family of our deceased Comrade and that they be 
published in the St. Marys Oracle.
