Excerpt from Memorial Addresses Commemorative of the Lives and Characters: Of Hon. Isaac N. Arnold, Late President of the Chicago Historical Society, Etc;; And Hon. Thomas Hoyne, Late Vice-President of the Chicago Historical Society, Etc; Delivered Before the Society, Tuesday Evening, October 21, 1884 The Hon. Isaac N. Arnold, president of the Chicago Historical Society, died at his residence in Chicago, on the 24th day of April, 1884. At the first meeting of the Society after his death. May 20, 1884, the following resolution, offered by Judge Skinner, was adopted: Resolved, That the Hon. E. B. Washburne be requested to prepare and deliver before this Society, at his convenience, a Memorial Address, commemorative of the life and character of the Hon. Isaac N. Arnold. Before the adjournment, Mr. Washburne, the acting-president of the Society, said: "I am certain that all the members of the Chicago Historical Society, and all others present, will have heard with emotion the resolution in respect to our late President, first presented by Judge Mark Skinner. "The Society has met with a great and almost irreparable loss in the death of Mr. Arnold. Long identified with it, giving to it his attention and his services, he has done much to elevate its character and increase its usefulness. We can never forget with what courtesy and dignity he presided at our meetings. Dying, as it were, in the harness, he has left us the recollection of an honest man, a cultivated gentleman, a good citizen, and an honored public servant. At some time in the future, the Society will pay appropriate honors to his memory." A regular monthly meeting of the Society was held at the Society Rooms, on Dearborn Avenue, Tuesday evening, October 21, 1884. After the disposal of the preliminary business, Mr. Washburne delivered the accompanying Address. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
