city participated and a neat sum was
raised to send to the stricken city

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT
In memory of Sister Melissa Mar
latt, who died September 28, 1941.
Once again death hath summoned
a Sister Rebekah, and the golden
gateway to the Eternal City has
opened to welcome her to her home.
She has completed her work in the
ministering to the wants of the af
flicted, in shedding light into dark
ened souls and in bringing joy into
the places of misery, and as her
reward she has received the plaudit
"Well done" from the Supreme
Master.
And whereas, the merciful Mas
ter has called our beloved Sister
home,
Be it therefore, resolved, that Sans
Souci Rebekah Lodge No. 33, of
Heppner, Oregon, drape its charter
in mourning for thirty days, and
that we tender the family of our de
ceased sister our sincere condolence
in their deep affliction; and that a
copy of these resolutions be sent to
the family.
