Twenty-second Annual Meeting

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.
