Report of the Committee.

The committe on neurology
having made its report, Com
rades Judge ]. A. Orr, Gen. E.
T. Sykes, and Col. C. L. Lin
coin were appointed a commit
tee to draft resolutions of re-
spect to the memory of our de-
ceased Comrades; and which
being reported were unanimous
ly adopted.
Whereas, death who knocks
with equal hand at the door of
the cottage and the palace gate
has been busy at his appointed
work, and has, during the past
twelve months taken from our
number ten (10) of our most
cherished and distinguished
comrades, viz: Generals S. d.
Lee, and J. H. Sharp; Drs. A. A,
Wofford, w. L. Lipscomb and A.
c.. Halbert; Captains Lewis
Walberg, E. c. Leech and A. L.
Myers; Comrades r. l.. Harris
and E. c. Ferguson; therefore,
be it,
Resolved, That in the death of
said Comrades the members of
this Association feel that words
are inadequate to express the
deep and heartfelt sorrow their
departure from among US have
occasioned, and we feel that we
can but feebly portray our
emotions of sadness in thinking
of the loss we have sustained.
End. That we extend to the
families and friends of our de-
ceased Comrades our heartfelt
sympathy in this time of their
great affiiction, which has fallen
to their lot, and assure them that
in their hour of sadness, their
sorrow is the sorrow of US al.
3rd. That a copy of these res
olutions be furnished to each and
a copy thereof sent to the Con-
federate Veteran at Nashville,
Tenn. and the City papers for
publication.
