''In the vicissitudes OF life no event so
promptly arrests our attention and incites
to serious reflection as the death of one
with whom we have long been pleasantly
associated, whether 10 social business or
professional intercourse. Such to us Is the
death of our friend and professional
brother George Holcombe LARSON, A. M,
M. D., which occurred March 7th, 1892.
Doctor Larson was one OF the oldest,
most faithful and efficient members OF the
society. Being a regular attendant at the
meetings OF the society he was not only
interested in Its prosperity, and keen
observer OF its doings and progress, but
was also an active and Intelligent particle
pant in its transactions. And whether In
debate on the floor of the society at home,
or as its representative abroad, he was
ever and always an advocate of high
professional standard aud the observance
Of true professional etiquette. With
mind cultivated and trained for ohserva-
ton and endowed with discriminating
judgment, he was on the alert for the in.
ception OF new ideas, as well as to grasp
and assimilate new truths when promul-
gated by others, and he endeavored to keep
abreast of the profession In its rapid adj
vancement. He was for years our meteor
ologist aud our reporter for the State So
ciety, AID amid his other multitudinons
labors he never neglected his obligations
to this society. In word che always
did his duty the highest encomium ac-
corded to fellowman.
DR.. Larson had been for many years
Fellow of the Medical Society OF New
Jersey, having been It's President. With
his mind we'll stored with interesting
knowledge and gifted with good CONVEX
sational powers, he was companiouable
and his kindliness of heart and genial dis
position made him an enjoyable associate.
Resolved, That while we bow submits
sively TO the wisdom Of God, In removing
from us our friend and professional
brother, we cannot but feel that in the
death Of DR.. Larson this society has lost
a valued member and an able supporter;
the medical profession, learned and
progressive worker; the community,
conscientious and painstaking physician,
and society, pleasing, courteous Chris
tian gentleman.
ReSotUed, That while we extend TO the
family of our deceased brother our fra
ternal regard and beg to sympathize with
them In their bereavement aud sorrow,
we nevertheless rejoice with them in the
blessed assurance that he has only passed
from the trials, temptations and conflicts
of this life, TO the enjoyment of eternal
rest in the peaceful activity of higher
and nobler state of existence In the life to
come. May we all endcavor to emulate
the life of our departed brother and fol-
low the bright example he has left US.
RESOLVED. That the Secretary be in
structed to spread this minute In full on
our records and transmit copy to the
family OF our deceased brother.n
