Minneola, Kansas, Oct. 22, 1898.
WHEREAS; in view of the loss we have sustained by the death of Comrade F.
W. Wakeman and of the still greater loss sustained by those who were near and
dearest to him. Therefore be it.
RESOLVED that it is but a just tribute to the memory of the departed to say that
in lamenting his removal from us, we mourn the loss of one who was a most true
and loyal Comrade and one whose pure loyalty was such as to command the love and
respect of all who knew him.
RESOLVED that we sincerely condole with the widow and Orphans of the Deceased
and the dispensation with which it hath pleased the divine Master to affect them
and commend him to Him who doeth all things for the best and whose chastisements
are in mercy.
RESOLVED that the post be draped in mourning for the usual time and that these
Resolutions be spread upon the minutes of the Post.
RESOLVED that these resolutions be printed in the county paper and a copy of the
same be sent to the family of the deceased.
