RECORDS. 215 



Resolved, that we recall with warmest interest his breadth of 

 culture, his cordiality of intercourse, his devotion to science, his 

 untiring activity, and his dignity and uprightness of personal 

 character. 



Resolved, that we bear our grateful witness to his long and 

 faithful services in and to the New York Academy of Sciences, 

 as Councilor and as Secretary through many years, and as 

 President in 1893 ; since which time he has resided principally 

 at Washington, and has thus become less well-known to the 

 younger body of members. 



Resolved, that these resolutions be entered upon the records of 

 the Academy and that a copy thereof be sent to his widow by 

 the Secretary. 



Daniel S. Martin, Chairman,
