meeting fthe Marion county Bar
shis morning that the members should
attend tho funeral OF William 81
Black, late clerk Of the circuit court,
which will be held on Sunday.
II calling the meeting to order
Judge Raymond said that the purpose
of the gathertng was to pay respects
to Mr. Black
Because this It was a meeting OF
the bar and not the bar association,
Judge Raymond stated that he was
asked to preside. He stated that he
thought that it would be proper TO
arrange for the drafting Of resolu-
tio0s on Mr. Blacks death as well as
to procure a floral tribute. The Elk5
will have charge OF the services, but
the Officers OF the Circuit, InteTr7edt-
ate and County courts have been des
ignated as honorary pail bearers.
Judge Raymond appointed Clarence
Currey, Of NcSsrgah, acting circuit
court clerk. as secretary OF the meet
ing. Judge Raymond appointed A. L.
Lehman, president OF the Marion
County Bar Association. Hon. w.
Scott Meredith and Trevey Nutter
COMMITTEES to secure an appropriate
floral tribute.
A. J. Kern suggested that the mem
! bers NEE; and attend the funeral IN
a body. Later NJ. W. ogden made
this as a motion and NJ. l. Sturm
seconded the motion. It was agreed
that all OF the members Of the county
bar should meet at the court house
! on Sunday afternoon at 1:45 O'Clock
to attend the funeral in body.
Judge Raymond in speaking OF MI.
Blacks death In part laid:
"The court itself has lost one OF
! its arms-the past grandmother IN the
preparation of orders and the con-
duct Of his office. His affairs are
| insofar as they appeartain to clerical
| work in be$ter condition and better
! arranged than IN any other circuit
| clerks ottiae in the State OF West
/ Virginia No labor OF no work was
! too sever or too drastic for him to per
| form. 1 feel that the suggestion Of
| Mr.. Kern is. proper and that is one
! OF the ways and perhaps the only
wav the members of the bar have to
! express their last respects"
On the motion of NJ. L. Sturm it
! was decided to draft a set Of resolu-
| ton son the death Of Mr.. Black. The
| members appointed on that commit
| Showalter James s.. Meredith, Hon.
| George A. Vincent, and II. II. Rose.
