Editor  American  Journal  of  Pharmacy  : 
On  the  25th  of  February  Dr.  A.  B.  Prescott,  Dean  of  the  Depart- 
ment of  Pharmacy  of  the  University  of  Michigan,  passed  away,  and 
memorial  services  were  held  in  Sarah  Caswell  Angell  Hall  on  the 
28th  of  February. 
Fitting  tributes  were  paid  his  memory  by  President  Angell,  Dr. 
Victor  C.  Vaughan,  Dr.  Herdmann  and  Professor  Dooge,  after  which 
resolutions  were  read  by  Professor  Schlotterbeck  and  Dr.  Novy,  for 
the  Pharmacy  and  Medical  Departments,  respectively;  and  also  res- 
olutions by  the  presidents  of  the  various  classes  of  the  two  depart- 
ments. 
I  enclose  herewith  resolutions  from  the  Faculty  and  Senior  and 
Junior  classes  of  the  Pharmacy  Department,  for  publication. 
Yours  very  respectfully, 
J.  O.  Schlotterbeck. 
Ann  Arbor,  Mich.,  March  11,  1905. 
Whereas,  the  Faculty  of  the  School  of  Pharmacy  of  the  Univer- 
sity of  Michigan  has  sustained  an  irreparable  loss  in  the  death  of 
its  Dean,  Albert  Benjamin  Prescott;  and, 
Whereas,  The  Faculty  of  the  School  of  Pharmacy  wishes  to 
record  its  deep  sense  of  sorrow,  caused  by  the  removal  from  its 
midst  of  a  wise  leader  and  a  beloved  colleague  who  for  more  than  a 
quarter  of  a  century  has  labored  earnestly  and  unceasingly  for  the 
advancement  of  pharmaceutical  education  and  for  the  welfare  of 
the  School  of  Pharmacy,  be  it  therefore 
Resolved,  That  by  the  death  of  Albert  Benjamin  Prescott,  to 
whose  efforts  and  labors  the  School  of  Pharmacy  owes  its  high 
standing  in  the  educational  world,  it  has  lost  a  most  valuable  execu- 
tive, one  whose  sterling  and  unselfish  qualities  have  gained  the  last- 
ing respect,  admiration  and  love  of  every  one  with  whom  he  came 
in  contact ;  and 
Resolved,  That  his  colleagues  and  students  will  ever  carry  the 
recollection  of  that  kindly  face,  that  cordial  and  considerate  manner, 
that  forgetfulness  of  self  in  thoughtfulness  for  others,  as  a  cherished 
and  tender  memory  and  inspiration  to  better  work  and  a  better  life; 
and  be  it  further
