Memorial Resolutions


At a meeting of the Old Residents' association, held Sept. 1, 1886, called 
to attend the funeral of Henry Jewett, it was, on motion of W. N. Cook,


Resolved, That we heard, with deep sorrow, of the sudden decease of our 
associate, who, although advanced in years, was a few days since moving 
amongst us with his usual activity, and exhibiting his usual demeanor of 
kindness and affability; as ready, as he ever has been, to take his part in 
the duties and responsibilities of life; that we review with pride his many 
years' record of usefulness in the public offices in which he was placed; 
the universal recognition of his worth in the respect and confidence of the 
community of which he was a citizen, and in the love of his relatives and 
family.


Resolved, That this testimonial of our regard and this expression of our 
sympathy with the grief of his surviving children, be conveyed to them by 
our secretary in a transcript of these resolutions, and by publication of 
them in the journals of the city.
