Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Proceedings on the Death of Hon. Solomon Foot: Including the Addresses Delivered in the Senate and House of Representatives on Thursday, April 12, 1866 While the voices of mourning for his loss are yet sounding in our ears, the bolt has again fallen, and Vermont is again called to weep over the dead form of the other. My colleague in this body, and one of its oldest and most distinguished members, the Hon. Solomon Foot, died at his lodgings in this city yesterday, at about eight o´clock in the morning. He endured a long and painful sickness with patience and resignation, and departed this life with bright and cheerful hopes of a blessed immortality in the life to come. The time which has elapsed since this great sorrow has fallen upon us has been so short, that amid the grief and care occasioned by the sad event, I have found no time in which to prepare to speak suitably of the character and distinguished public services of our departed associate; and I shall therefore ask the indulgence of the Senate on some future day, when time shall have a little dulled the sharp edge of our grief, for myself and others who may desire an opportunity to pay appropriate tribute to the memory of the deceased. I now offer the following resolutions, and ask their present consideration: Resolved, That the members of the Senate, from a sincere desire of showing every mark of respect to the Hon. Solomon Foot, deceased, late a senator from the State of Vermont, will go into mourning for the residue of the present session by the usual mode of wearing crape on the left arm. Resolved, That the Senate will attend the funeral of the deceased from the Senate chamber at 1 o´clock to-day; and that the committee of arrangements, consisting of Messrs. Doolittle, Anthony, Howard, Hendricks, Sherman, and Buckalew, superintend the same. Ordered, That the Secretary communicate these proceedings to the House of Representatives. The resolutions were unanimously adopted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
