Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Institution of the Society of the Cincinnati 1783 Since the organization of the New York State Society of the Cincinnati, resolutions appear upon the minutes, authorizing the publication of their transactions, on the 9th of February, 1784; 4th of July, 1810; 4th of July, 1828; 4th of July, 1846, and on the 22d of May, 1873, when, on motion of Mr. Crosby, the following was adopted: Resolved, That the Institution of the Society, together with the abstracts of the proceedings of the General Society and the New York State Society down to the present time, also a full list of the members of this Society, together with the revised By-laws, be printed to the number of five hundred copies, under the direction of the Stcretary. The Secretary at that time, Marinus Willett, reported that the full list of members accredited to New York could not be correctly ascertained from the fact that the original roll was lost. The Society then appointed Mr. Schuyler, Mr. Tapp and the Secretary a Committee to ascertain and verify the names of the original members of the New York State Society, and they, after corresponding with the descendants of several of the former Secretaries, succeeded in finding the original Roll in a trunk of old papers belonging to Dr. Marcellin, the former Secretary, and which had been, since his decease, in the possession of a daughter of his, living in Illinois. At the Annual Meeting in 1877 this Committee made a full report and replaced the original Roll among the Archives of the Society. Mr. Hamilton. General Cochrane and Mr. Schuyler were thereupon appointed a Committee to have the same reproduced, and the following was adopted at the same time: "That for the purpose of availing ourselves of the labor of these Committees, by publishing the results of their work for the use of the members of the Society, these Committees be consolidated, and that the members of the Joint Committee be John Schuyler, Marinus Willett, Edward W. Tapp, Alexander Hamilton and John Cochrane, together with the President, who shall undertake and perform the duties aforesaid and also the republication of the proceedings of the Society at present published in book form." On the following 7th of March the Joint Committee met and resolved itself into a Sub-Committee, consisting of Mr. Schuyler and the President, to carry out the instructions of the resolution, and On the 4th of July, 1879, the Secretary, Mr. Willett, resigned, and at his request Mr. Schuyler was elected in his place.
