 BIRMINGHAM BAR.
 The following was reported by the com- mittee:
 In the death of Baylis Earle Grace, Jr. the Birmingham bar feels the loss of one whose true manliness of character com manded their respect, whose splendid talents claimed their admiration, and whose generous and magnanimous disposi- tion won heir love and sympathy. For years the career of our deceased brother called forth unusual hopes and ex- pcctations of a brilliant future for him, and not until desease had sapped his strength and his health destroyed did we realize that his bright promise could not be realized.
 All of us remember how cheerful and full of life he was; how his sparkling remarks and well.told anecdotes charmed all who heard them.
 Like other dear friends and associates he has Fit us, but we will treasure up the memories of him as among the precious things of life. We knew his talent; we enjoyed that wit and humor which made him the delightful companion; and we can scarcely realize that he has done with life and entered upon an intending existence. As bar we wish to express our great sorrow for the loss of our lamented friend, and to put this memorial Of him upon the records of our courts; therefore be it Resolved by the bar of Birmingham CD, That we deeply feel the loss of our brother and would tender to his loved ones our heartfelt sympathies in this hour of their sadness and gloom.
 Resolved (2), That this tribute to his memory be presented to the courts or law and equity of Jefferson county and page be asked on which to record It in their records.
 Resolved (3), That copy of this memo. rial be sent 10 the family of our deceased brother and 10 the several newspapers pub lished in the city of Birmingham.
