Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Poems and Addresses of Charles J. Barrett, Late State Deputy of the Knights of Columbus of New Jersey May 14 was a day of grief and sadness for the New Jersey membership, for it marked the passing away of one of Nature´s noblemen, their beloved State Deputy - Charles J. Barrett. Within an hour after the close of the State Convention, which had unanimously re-elected him to the office of State Deputy, filled by him during the past year with honor to himself and to the Order, he died of septic pneumonia, and an occasion that was to have been one of joy and merriment, was turned to deepest gloom. The fact that State Deputy Barrett was lying critically ill at his home in South Orange, was communicated to the delegates as soon as the convention, which met in Jersey City, had assembled, and fervent prayers were offered for his recovery, but without avail, for shortly after adjournment the dreaded announcement of the State Deputy´s death was received. It created profound sorrow among the Knights, many of whom were visibly affected, for State Deputy Barrett was deeply beloved by them all. It was hard to realize that they would see him in life no more; that they would no longer feel the magnetic clasp of his hand; that his great heart, in which the fires of love and kindness had ever burned brightly, was stilled; that his lips, which had so often uttered golden words of wisdom and encouragement, were sealed forever. Everywhere the news of his death occasioned intense regret, and on all sides were heard sincere expressions of sympathy and words of loving remembrance of one who had been a friend to many and an enemy to none.
