At special meeting Of the Board of Directors OF
the Union League, held this evening, the following
minute and resolution were unanimously adopted =
The Board OF Directors, in view OF the special re-
lations which have been sustained towards the
Union League OF Philadelphia from its very origin,
by STEPHEN COLwELL, Esq, who died suddenly on
less to themselves than to the memory OF the de-
ceased that some marked notice should be taken of
his death and placed upon their records.
With an intelligent and thoughtful mind fully con-
Yinced OF the necessity and usefulness of such an
organization, and a heart warmly alive to its en-
couraging influences, 1t was peculiarly fitting that
at the first formal meeting which led to the estab-
lishment OF the Union League, Mr.. Colwell should
be called upon, as he was, to preside His name
thus heads the list OF the sgners OF the constitution
OF the League; and he grew with its growth, ever
in the forefront OF whatever movement was planned
for giving aid and comfort and support to his
country and its Government throughout the course
of its struggle for existence in resisting by force OF
arms causeless and wicked armed Rebellion.
We desire TO bear testimony to those virtues
which manifested themselves In all his intercourse
with u.s. to the singleness and unselhshness OF his
purpose; TO his courteousness and urbanity In our
varied relations; to his hrmness, cautousness, and
wisdom in the deliberations OF counsels; to his
patience, unwearying industry, and cheerful deyo-
tion OF time abilities, and means IN aid Of the
dear to all our hearts, to his constant unwaver-
ing JOY and faith and trust in the overrulng proVi-
dence OF the Goo of our fathers amid the darkest
hours OF the countrys peril, as well as Ia times OF
success and victory.
or his private character, his abilities as a scholar,
especially In the fields of political economy and
social science of his love OF the beautiful in art
and nature; OF his uprlghtness and integrity as a
man and a citizen; OF the bright example OF his
Christian character, there are others who may more
Gtungly bear record
God In His wisdom has taken from us our friend
and counsellor, after life OF usefulness and bless
ing, when he had attained the full measure of his
years. We mourn his loss to ourselves; we rejoice
In his unspeakable gain, for we sorrow not as with
out hope. Yet grieving and sorrowing that we shall
see his kindly and benignant face no more among
u.s. we join sympathies and our tears with those
OF all his mourning friends.
We direct the above minute to be placed upon oui
records and published in the newspapers. and copy
10 be sent to the family Of Mr.. COlwell, and as al
additional mark OF respect TO his memory 1t is
Resolved That the Board OF Directors attend hi
funeral In body.
