MEMORIAL
RESOLUTION IN TRIBUTE TO
MR.
MEEKER
WHEREAS,
Since the last meeting of this Society, Providence
has
removed from us and other earthly
associates our fellow
member
and friend, Claude Meeker, who departed this life De-
cember
6, 1929, and
Report of the 44th Annual
Meeting 633
WHEREAS, Mr. Meeker was deeply interested in the work
of this Society, liberal in its
financial support, and for a number
of years a member of the Board of
Trustees, therefore
Be it Resolved, That in the death of Mr. Meeker this Society
has sustained the loss of a generous
patron, the State and City of
Columbus a public-spirited, upright
citizen, and all who were so
fortunate as to know him a kindly,
sincere and faithful friend,
Be it further Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be
engrossed and sent to the surviving
members of his family with
assurances of our sincere sympathy with
them in their very great
bereavement.
The motion was duly seconded and the
resolution
was unanimously adopted.
After the adoption of the resolution,
Chairman
Bareis stated:
It has been truly stated that Mr. Meeker
was a liberal mem-

remember, he bought a library
for this Society for which he paid
$5,ooo.oo and presented it to
us; and I know of other benefactions.

expiring in 1931, Mr. Albert Spetnagel;

On motion of Mr. Hinkle, the report of
the com-

directed to
