Resolutions.

The committee appointed to draft resolutions on the death of Mrs. Caroline I. Porter respectfully submits the following: Whereas God, in his infinite wisdom, has called unto Himself another whom we highly esteem, be it Resolved, that the Ladies’ Literary Club has lost one of its most intelligent and'capable members; a woman possessed of that wider culture which comes through study, and which leads into broader planes of thought. Although conservative in manner, her high standards of life were evident to all who were so fortunate as to be associated with her. She also saw and appreciated the importance of the spiritual as well as the intellectual things of life. "Fast as the rolling seasons bring The hour of fate to those we love, Each pearl that leaves the broken string, * | Is set in Friendship’s crown above, As narrower grows the earthly chain The circle widens in the sky; These are our treasures that remain But those are stars that beam on high.” , Resolved, that the sympathy of this Club be extended to the relatives, and a copy of these resolutions be placed on record. MRS. JESSE D. ALLMAN, MRS. JOHN GWIN, Committee.
