AFebruaryPih9air81'  }  Memorial  Meeting  to  Professor  Remington.  99 
pression  upon  the  pharmacy  of  the  entire  world  than  Professor 
Remington.  In  foreign  countries,  when  the  king  dies  the  people 
cry,  'The  King  is  dead;  long  live  the  King! '  It  is  for  us  to  cry, 
'The  King  is  dead;  who  shall  reign  in  his  stead?' 
Resolved,  That  we  spread  this  memorial  upon  the  minutes  of 
the  Philadelphia  Branch  of  the  American  Pharmaceutical  Associa- 
tion, and  send  a  copy  of  the  same  to  his  family  in  testimony  of  our 
sympathy  and  appreciation. 
(Signed  for  the  Committee) 
F.  E.  Stewart,  M.D.,  Phar.D., 
Chairman. 
Dr.  Stewart  then  added  his  personal  appreciation  of  Professor 
Remington  in  these  words : 
I  desire  to  express  my  personal  feelings,  not  only  representing 
the  Philadelphia  Branch  of  the  American  Pharmaceutical  Associa- 
tion, but  also  representing  the  class  of  1876,  this  class  being  the  one 
to  which  Professor  Remington  gave  his  first  course  of  lectures. 
During  the  many  years  since  that  time,  there  has  hardly  been  a 
year  that  I  have  not  had  an  occasion  to  personally  confer  with  Pro- 
fessor Remington,  and  I  was  always  received  with  courtesy  and 
consideration.  His  loss  is  a  great  blow  to  us  as  members  of  the 
college  and  members  of  the  faculty. 
Prof.  Charles  H.  LaWall,  Professor  Remington's  associate  in 
the  department  of  the  theory  and  practice  of  pharmacy  at  the  Col- 
lege, then  spoke  as  f  ollows : 
I  am  filled  with  such  emotion  in  consequence  of  the  events 
which  have  preceded  this  meeting  that  I  can  do  but  feeble  justice 
to  the  feelings  in  my  heart  at  the  present  time.  I  have  been  asso- 
ciated with  Professor  Remington  for  eighteen  years,  probably  in  a 
closer  way  than  many  of  those  who  have  preceded  me.  I  have 
worked  with  him,  I  have  traveled  with  him,  and  I  have  played  with 
him,  because  he  was  one  of  those  few  men  who  knew  how  to  play. 
So  few  men  realize  that  to  work  well  one  must  also  take  a  certain 
amount  of  recreation.  I  have  learned  to  know,  love  and  respect  him 
in  a  higher  degree  than  I  have  had  a  respect  and  love  for  and  knowl- 
edge of  any  other  man  in  the  world.  I  have  been  associated  with  him 
in  a  teaching  capacity  and  during  those  eighteen  years  I  have  been
