RESOLUTIONS xxiii 



Georgetown Alumni Society of New York 



By the death of 



MR. ANDREW J. SHIPMAN 



the 

 Georgetown Alumni Society 

 of New York City 

 has lost one of its most distinguished and zealous members. 

 His ever ready service, his generous co-operation in every- 

 thing that promoted the welfare of his Alma Mater and the 

 Alumni Society, his warm friendship for his fellow-alumni, 

 and his generous assistance whenever the occasion offered, 

 not only endeared him to all, but made him a shining example 

 of devotion which few can emulate but none excel. 



His generous nature led him to give his time and talents 

 without stint to every worthy cause. 



The distinguished position which he won by solid merit in 

 his profession, his notable public and civic services which 

 he gave freely and with largess in more than one direction, his 

 sturdy and uncompromising love of truth and justice as a 

 Publicist, the great work which he accompHshed out of the 

 fullness of his charity for the Catholics of the Uniat Churches 

 in the United States, make a unique and distinguished record 

 which is a source of just pride and gratification to his fellow- 

 alumni. 



While his loss in death is the cause of deep grief, his 



illustrious example in life is a source of great consolation. 



To his afflicted family the 



New York Alumni Society 



extends its profoundest sympathy. 



J. Lynch Prendergast, 



President. 

 James S. McDonogh, 



Secretary.
