a  life-long  association  and  fellowship,  and  dwelt  eloquently  upon  the  fidelity 
and  integrity  with  which  William  B.  Webb  performed  all  the  duties  of  life  and 
of  public  trust.  Prof.  Remington  followed,  stating  that  the  Board  of  Trustees 
had  placed  upon  their  records  a  sense  of  personal  loss,  and  of  that  which  the 
College  had  sustained  in  the  demise  of  the  late  Treasurer.  Mr.  Howard  B. 
French  referred  to  the  faithful  service  which  the  deceased  had  rendered  in  the 
manifold  duties  pertaining  to  his  connection  as  an  officer,  member  and  ardent 
friend  of  the  College,  and  finally  Mr.  M.  N.  Kline  expressed,  briefly,  the  extent 
of  loss  sustained  when  an  institution  becomes  thus  deprived  of  the  service  of 
one  long- tried,  and  found  faithful  to  every  duty.  On  motion,  it  was  resolved 
that  the  Committee  on  library  be  requested  to  have  placed  in  suitable  position 
a  portrait  of  the  late  Treasurer  of  the  College. 
Meeting  adjourned,  on  motion.  Wiwam  B.  Thompson,
