In the death of Franklin L, Burns and R. Brognard Okie the
Tredyffrin-Easttown History Club lost in the space of a few weeks,
the friendly service and companionship of two of its oldest and
most useful members. It has therefore been deemed fitting to dedicate
this number of The Quarterly to their memories.
R. Brognard Okie
