accepted, and H. W. Worthington and W. W.Moore, were 
appointed a committee to audit his accounts. 
On motion, it was 
Resolved, That a vote of thanks be tendered to him for his 
faithful and efficient discharge of his duties. 
The following preamble and resolutions were read, and 
unanimously adopted. 
It is with feelings of deep regret that we announce to the 
College the decease of our late estimable Vice President, 
Henry Troth. 
Previous to the existence of the Philadelphia College of 
Pharmacy, he was impressed with the many advantages that 
would result from the Druggists and Apothecaries of this city 
co-operating in the establishment of such an Institution; his 
zealous labors attest the leading part which he took, as one of 
its founders, and the untiring energy of his mind was demoted 
to its interests until removed by death from the station of 
honor and usefulness he held among us. 
For thirteen years Henry Troth presided over our meet- 
ings as Vice President, seldom, if ever, known to be absent, 
except from sickness, or absence from the city. The deep in- 
terest he felt for the prosperity of the College, was manifest- 
ed by the faithful discharge of all his duties as an officer and 
member. 
Resolved, That his high moral worth, his many estima- 
ble traits of character, and his kindness and courtesy of man- 
ner, secured for him the warm personal friendship and re- 
spect of the members individually. 
Resolved, That we record this short notice on our minutes 
as a slight tribute of affectionate regard to his memory. 
Resolved, That the Secretary be directed to forward a copy 
of the same to his bereaved family, accompanied by the reso- 
lutions passed at a late meeting of the Board of Trustees. 
On motion, the College resolved to proceed to an election, 
to supply the vacancy occasioned by the decease of our First 
Vice President, Henry Troth, also to supply the office of 
Treasurer, occasioned by the resignation of Samuel F. Troth
