In Memory of a Dead Comrade.
Stevens Post, G. A. R., has adopted the following resolution in memory of Charles C. Wilson, a member of the post, who died April 17:
"Seattle, April 30, 1897.
"To the Commander and Comrades of Stevens Post, No. 1, G. A. R.:
"Your committee, appointed to prepare suitable resolutions in memory of our late comrade, Charles C. Wilson, who died April 17, 1897, respectfully submit the following:
"By the sad and untimely death of Charles C. Wilson the officers and members of this post mourn the loss of an efficient and able post commander, an upright and honorable comrade, and a friend and companion whose faithful and earnest work in the post room, among our needy comrades, and in all the walks of life, is now, to all, the greatest monument of his many virtues and noble, upright character.
"Comrade Wilson was one who, true to that soldierly spirit that everywhere characterized the 'boys in blue,' was ready for every duty, and as 'in camp and field,' so in post and civil life, he manifested a spirit of true devotion to comrade and friend, and was ever ready to obey and to perform his well his part in life.
"As a member of Stevens post he took an active part in all the proceedings, and refused no duty when health or business would permit him to act. He was obedient to every command and true to every trust. As a soldier, so as a comrade, he bore the brunt of battle without a murmur or complaint.
"As he lived, so he died, a brave and loyal defender of the old flag he loved so well. His last work at our new cemetery, assisting at the raising of the flagpole, is a fitting memento to us of his patriotic life. 'Tis well that he sleeps in that hallowed spot, made the more sacred to us by his untiring efforts in life, and now the receptacle of his precious dust.
"To his bereaved family we extend the consolations and sympathies of comrades who loved him in life, and who will do all in our power to shield and protect, to console and comfort his loved ones in this their greatest sorrow.
"Resolved, that these resolutions be published in our city papers, the Blaine Republican and the White River Journal, and that a copy be presented to the family. Respectfully submitted,
S. F. STREET
