Wednesday, March 14, 1888 Page Three Tribute of Respect At a regular meeting of the County Medical Society of Dale county, the following preamble and resolutions were had to-wit: Whereas, it has pleased Almighty God to remove from our midst our beloved friend and co-laborer, Alonzo W. Ford, M.D., who was once a member of the examining board of this county, and after fulfilling all the duties thereof became one of the most active of the Society workers; and was one of the Board of Censors. By his death the Society has lost one of its efficient members, the Profession an ornament, his friends and patrons an efficient, competent and sympathetic medical advisor. Dr. Alonzo W. Ford was born in Dalton, Ga., April 1st, 1849 and died in Newton, Ala., Sept. 15th A.D. 1887. Graduated in medicine in the Louisville Medical College in 1874, and was married to Miss Sallie Morris, Dec. 20th, 1877, and to them were born four sons, on whom we feel it is a duty to bestow our fostering care. Resolved 1st. That the Medical Society of Dale county extend to his family their heartfelt sympathy in this their sad bereavement. Resolved 2nd. That this preamble and these resolutions be spread upon the minutes of the Society, a copy furnished to his family, the Southern Star and the Newton Messenger, with the request that they be published.
