NOTE .- The son, Charles, was a member of the Ancient and Honorable Society of Freemasons, and belonged to Mt. Lebanon Lodge, Boston, and to St. Paul's Royal Arch Chapter ; and on the occasion of his decease, both bodies passed resolutions highly commendatory of his character and abilities. Those of the former body state, that " for four successive years he presided over the interests of Mt. Lebanon Lodge, with unusual ability, filling the chair with great honor to himself, and benefit to the institution ;" and by vote, the altar of the Lodge was clothed with mourning for three months. The resolutions of the latter body, of which he was presiding officer, state that, " in the death of Bro. Bates, we mourn the loss of an excellent, honest, true hearted man and mason :- one who has endeared himself to his brethren, by the urbanity of his manners, the uprightness of his deportment, and the benevolence of his heart." The altar of the chapter was also clothed with mourning ; and we understand that a monument has been erected to the memory of Brother Bates, in the beautiful Cemetery at Mt. Auburn. Peace to his ashes !
