Twenty-second Annual Meeting. 255
above named gentlemen as Trustees. The
Secretary cast the bal-
lot as instructed, and the five men
designated, were declared
elected as Trustees of the Society to
serve for the ensuing three
years, ending at the Annual Meeting in
1910.
Mr. Wood, in making the report of the
Nominating Com-
mittee, stated that the committee
further desired to recommend
that General R. Brinkerhoff be elected
by the Society President
Emeritus for life. Such action he thought would be justified
because of the long and valuable
services of General Brinkerhoff
to the Society. The original Ohio
Archaeological Society was
organized in 1875 at the home of General
Brinkerhoff, who was
one of the three original organizers.
Further, General Brinker-
hoff has been a member of the Ohio State
Archaeological and
Historical Society since its
organization in 1885, and had been
its honored and active President since
1893. After many expres-
sions of approval and of tribute to
General Brinkerhoff, the vote
was unanimous that he be elected as
proposed, namely, President
Emeritus for life. General Brinkerhoff, with much feeling,
briefly acknowledged the honor so
unusually accorded him.
The meeting of the Society then
adjourned.
