RESOLUTIONS xxvii 



Catholic Theatre Movement 



The Executive Board of the Catholic Theatre Movement 

 at its regular monthly meeting held at the residence of 

 Right Reverend Monsignor Lavelle, 460 Madison Avenue, on 

 February 7th, 1916, unanimously adopted the following me- 

 morial of MR. ANDREW J. SHIPMAN and directed its entry 

 on the minutes. 



Andrew J. Shipman had a charming personality, an in- 

 tellect of the highest order, a character of sterling quality. 

 He gave all these things to the service of the Catholic 

 Theatre Movement, joined with an industry which was re- 

 markable. He was one of the organizers of this society and 

 helped to mark out the lines for its progress and to find out 

 the ways for its development. His culture and knowledge 

 of books and men helped greatly in the formation of the 

 plans for the beginnings of the difficult work it took charge 

 of. He continued earnest and interested until his untimely 



death. 



We desire to record here our sorrow at his departure 

 from among us and to express to the members of his 

 family our deep sympathy in their bereavement. 



Austin Finegan, 



Secretary.
