Whereas,  We  have  learned,  with  unfeigned  sorrow,  of  the  death  of  Prof. 
William  Procter,  Jr.,  of  the  Philadelphia  College  of  Pharmacy,  in  which  he 
so  ably  and  faithfully  filled  the  position  of  "  Professor  of  Pharmacy,"  and 
Whereas,  The  loss  of  his  valuable  services  to  the  students,  the  College,  and 
the  profession  at  large  will  be  difficult  to  replace  ;  be  it  therefore 
Resolved,  That  we,  the  students  of  the  Chicago  College  of  Pharmacy,  tender 
our  sincere  sympathy  to  the  students  of  the  Philadelphia  College  of  Pharmacy 
in  the  loss  of  so  able  a  teacher,  and  so  true  a  friend. 
Resolved,  That  we  shall  ever  remember  one  whose  many  researches  and  able 
efforts  in  the  cause  of  science  and  the  elevation  of  the  profession  have  justly 
entitled  him  to  be  acknowledged  the  "Father  of  Pharmacy"  in  America. 
Resolved,  That  we  all  unite  in  regretting  the  loss  of  one  who  has  been  re- 
moved so  early  from  the  field  of  his  usefulness. 
Resolved,  Therefore,  that  a  copy  of  these  resolutions  be  sent  to  the  family  of 
the  deceased,  to  the  students  of  the  Philadelphia  College  of  Pharmacy,  class 
1873-74,  and  to  the  "  Pharmacist"  for  publication,  and  that  these  resolutions 
be  filed  in  the  archives  of  this  College.
