He was past grand commander of Knights Templar in Missouri, and past grand high priest of the grand chapter of Royal Arch Masons of this state. From 1896 to 1898 he published the Orient, a Masonic paper, at this place.
The body will be removed from his late residence to the Scottish Rite cathedral this afternoon and the funeral services of a Knight Kadosh will be held publicly by the Scottish Rite bodies at 9 p.m. The remains will lie in state at the cathedral until 5 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, when they will be taken to the Union depot under the escort of Oriental commandery, K.T., and shipped to his former home, Trenton, Mo., for burial at that place on Monday under the auspices of the Trenton Masonic lodge.
