Read at the funeral seraices of Peter C. McNeitin h'eld at San Francisco on Ma5t 6, 1930.
The Redwood Industry lost one of its most brilliant and gifted leaders in the death of Peter C. McNe'r'in. California.has lost a real man whose friends are legion. Peter C. McNilvin's character and personality were known wherever lu-mbermen gather, and were such that his acquaintances 'quickly became friends. He controlled the organization, of which he was the head, with the firm ties of love, respect and loyalty. The Golden Rule was the foundation of his policy and his great success evidenced the efficacy of honesty and fair dealing.in the business world. He was an inspiration to his friends and co-workers. None who knew Peter McNevin could resist his appeal. Strong in adversity, unyielding in the face of difficulties, he won the respect of all. With his friends and associates he was kind, gentle and considerate; his loyalty to his friqnds bound them to him and all who knew him join in sympathy with his family at his passing.
