MARYLAND EDITORIAL ASSOCIATIONS
The Maryland Editorial Association met at
Guys Hotel, Baltimore, on the 9th of Sep
TENDER. Several new members were elected
and the deaths of Hon. Geo w. Wilson, late
President ofthe association, and of Charles II
Keefer, of the Frederick Examiner, were an
nounced, and the following resolutions adopt.
ed
Whereas, We are called, in the mysterious dis
pensatons of Providence, TO mourn the loss of
our beloved friend and vcnerated president,
Geo. w. Wilson, of the Marlborough Gazette,
and of our esteemed brother, Charles H. Keefer,
of the Frederick Examiner
ReSOlVed, That while we bow submissiyely TO
the will of our Heavenly Father, who doet6 all
things WE'LL and who has summoned our chief
and our co-laborer from the scenes of eal thly
trial to the reward of the just, cannot refrain
from expression of the loss we have sustained
by their withdrawal from our midst.
Mr.. Wilson was gifted in such an unusual de-
gree with that personal magnetism which draws
to its possessor the utmost strength and warmth
of attachment, affection and sympathy, that his
departure is felt as II household calamity. AS
long as the present membership of the Mary
land Editorial Association shall continue, we
shall increasingly miss his benevolent face, his
gladdening smile, his cheering manner, his
amiabe disposition, his unfailing kindhcarted-
ness and his unselish readiness to serve his
friends to the full extent of his power
ReSotOed, That we place on record our keen
and abiding sense of the loss which this associa.
ton has suffered in the death of our president;
that we convey to his family our earnest sym-
pathy in their ailliction; and that We will always
cherish with grateful remembrance his solid
merits and sterling virtues.
ReSolVcd, That by the sudden and tragic deaf
of our friend and brother, Charles III. Keefer,
from the shock of which we are not likely to re-
cover during our earthly life, we are deprived of
the presence and counsel of one whom we always
held in the highest esteem, whose kindly greet
lngs sui llnger in our memory, whose devotion
to his profession and to the interests of this AS
sociation will be severely missed in the future.
heSotged, Ihat the Association transmit to
the widow of the deceased its heartfelt sympathy
with her in this crushing afIliction
Eloquent and touching tributes were paid
to the memory Of the deceased members by
Messrs. Cruikshank, of the Ekton Democrat,
Malone, of the Salisbury Advertiser, and
lglehart, of the Annapolis Adoertiser.
The following officers were elected for the
ensuing year:
George Cotton, President; Charles Cole,
Lemuel Malone, j. Guest King, Clement
Sullivan, II. @. Longnecker, A. P. McCombs
Vice Presidents; w. II. Vanderiord Cores
ponding Secretary; George Savage, Record.
ing Secretary; Peter Negley, Treasurer; V.
L. Baughman, c. 9. Bombaugh, l. s. Wilson,
Or. w. Fl. Rppard, w. II. Ruby, Executive
Committee.
The annual dinner will be held at Anna
polls, at some time during the session of the
Legislature.
