emily Father in his inscrutable wis
dom, to remove from our midst, our
friend, associate, and brother in pro-
ression Of law, h. p, Curry, to which
decree we bow in submission and
with reverence, therefore be 1t re-
solved:
First That we sincerely deplore
his death, by which each and every
one Of rs lost a personal friend,
who by the kindness of his heart,
his honest frankness, his genial bear
ing, his genuine charity and SYM
PATTY, has always commanded our
respect and won our affection.
Second We the members Of this
bar the Officers OF Washington coun-
ty, aud the citizens thereof, in the
death of Judge Curry, have suffered
a great loss.
Third, 1t is great pleasure for
us to attest, that he was as true and
incorruptible in his public life, as
he was faithful and true in the pri-
yate walks OF domestic and social
relations. That, his domestic life was
beautiful, his home ideal, and to be
a guest of that family circle, was a
/ benediction to the guest,
Fourth. That in his relations, as
husband, father, and brother, he was
tenderly arfeccionate and loving; al
ways laboring sor the happiness and
comfort OF the dear ones, who looked
to him for counsel and protection,
Fifth. That We will ever cherish
