JOHN YARKER ANCIENT & PRIMITIVE RITE THE KNEPH .

IN MEMORIA. John L. Yarker With deep sorrow we have to register the death of Brother John L. Yarker, which took place on the 3rd of June, 1888, at the age of thirty years, and who was interred at Withington on the 7th amidst a large assembly of the Didsbury Conservative Club--a handsome wreath having been sent by No. 2 Chapter of the A. & P. Rite. Our brother was initiated into Craft Freemasonry in the Lodge of Integrity, No. 163, Manchester, on the 29th Sept., 1886; into the Swedenborgian Rite in the Egyptian Lodge and Temple, No. 2, Manchester, on the 28th Jan., 1887, and appointed S.W.; was admitted into the A. & P. Rite in the Palatine and Jerusalem Chapter, No. 2, Manchester, on the 5th October, 1886, and advanced to 30-905° on the 24th January, 1887. He was appointed Sublime Dai of the Palatine Council, No. 2, in March, 1887, and in going to Liverpool to take his 32-945° in June, 1887, at the Mystic Temple, he broke a blood vessel in the railway train, and never afterwards recovered his usual health.
