Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from In Memoriam: Hon. John M. Morehead On receipt of the intelligence of the death of Gov. Morehead, a meeting of citizens was called by Mayor Eckel, in the Court-House, on the evening of the 29th, at which Ralph Gorrell, Lyndon Swaim and John Long were appointed a committee to draft resolutions suitable to the occasion; and a committee of fifteen, to-wit: Richard Sterling, W. A. Caldwell, D. F. Caldwell, James Jones, M. D. Smith, A. G. Brenizer, J. W. Albright, W. D. Trotter, J. Hildesheimer, Dr. J. Q. Beasley, Peter Adams, J. R. May, R. M. Sloan, David Scott, and Dr. A. C. Caldwell, to wait at the railroad station, at 3 o´clock in the morning, receive the remains, and attend them to the family residence. On the morning of the 30th, at 9 o´clock, the meeting re-assembled, and, in the unavoidable absence of Mr. Gorrell, chairman of the committee appointed to draft resolution, Mr. Swaim offered the resolutions below, prefaced by remarks, as follows: In consideration of the eminent position occupied by our deceased fellow-townsman - his age and public services - we owe fitting public demonstration of respect to his remains and to his memory. His force of character, and talents as a popular orator, would have made him a "man of mark" in any age or country. These characteristics, we know, were largely directed, throughout his life, to patriotic purposes, and entitled him to the public gratitude.
