WHEREAS, The Hon. A. W.

Therefore be it

Resolved, That in his death the family are bereaved of a kind and affectionate husband, the community in which he resided an honest and upright man and the State and Nation a useful and honorable citizen.

Resolved, that we extend to the family of the deceased who are bowed with grief and sorrow our earnest sympathy in this their sad affliction and request the clerk of this House to transmit an engrossed copy of these resolutions to the bereaved widow and that the same be spread upon the Journal of this House as a part of the records thereof.
