Resolved, That we sincerely mourn the untimely death of Brother Babcock, and that in his death the Lodge has lost one of its brightest ornaments, society one of its most promising members, and his family and friends a loving husband, a dutiful son, an affectionate brother, and a true and faithful friend.

Resolved:  That we tender to the family of our deceased Brother, our most heart-felt sympathy, in this the time of their great affliction.  May the Supreme Architect of the universe give strength and support to the young widow, whose bright hopes and fond anticipations have been so suddenly blighted by this sad dispensation, and enable her to be resigned to the will of Him who doeth all things well; and may the same support be afforded to that family circle which has been so suddenly broken.
