Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Senate of Pennsylvania in Commemoration of Hon. John W. Crawford: Late a Senator From the Forty-Fifth District, Tuesday, March 7, 1911 Mr. Wilbert. Mr. President, The saddest and most mournful duty that I have been called upon to perform since becoming a member of this body, is that which I now undertake, in speaking upon the death of our lamented fellow-member, the Honorable John W. Crawford, whose death occurred June 30, 1909, while not wholly unexpected, yet came as a great blow to his vast army of friends, supporters and admirers. It was my privilege and my pleasure to know John Crawford intimately and well, and perhaps better than did any other member of the Senate, and this not only for the reason that we hailed from the same county, but because we lived together during our joint sojourn in Harrisburg; and the result of my intimacy with him was the creation of feelings of respect and friendship which never diminished, but on the contrary, increased from the first day of our acquaintance to the day we parted by the dire decree of death. I am not by any means the sole witness of the endurance of his friendship, for in my intercourse with other members of the Senate, I have found a great void has been left by his taking off, and that his cheerful smile, his hearty handshake and genial personality will be sorely missed. He was one of those men, who, where he had promoted an acquaintance to the class of friend, believed that he should be clasped to his soul with hoops of steel.
