IN MEMORE OF
JOHN MILTON REIFSNIDER

John Milton Reifsnider died in his
prime. Grounded in legal procedure
and principles, and animated by that
ardor which is generated by a clear
conception of the dignity, the sanctity
and the necessity Of law as the key
stone in the majestic structure of So
ciety, he> brought to the performance
of his professional duties loyalty to
clients; care and diligence in the as
sembling and analysis of facts; prud-
ence and elaboration in the formation
of opinion; zeal, skill and fearless
ness in the presentation of causes;
and a decorous acquisscence in the
decisions Of the courts; and thus he
maintained while exemplifying, the
best traditions of noble profession.
1t was characteristic of John Mill
ton Reifsnider to devote, unstintedly,
his strength and his talent to the full
discharge of his responsibilities as
lawyer and as a public official The
sterner attributes of fidelity to prin-
ciple and rectitude of conduct were,
however. accompanied by such a
happy union of courtesy. fairness,
moderation and magnetism as to Gre
ate charming personality whose en-
gaging qualities made more poignant
the sorrow of his associates on his
death.
Be it resolved, therefore, that this
memorial be spread on the record of
the proceedings of this Court, and
that copy be sent to the family, and
that the Court do now adjourn as a
further tribute to his memory.

In Loving Memory of Somerset Rich.
ard Waters, M. D-Departed This
Life, May 3Oth, 1919.
One year ago there entered into
rest one whose memory will be long
cherished by all who were privileged
to share his friendship. sHe lived a
long and happy life in this world,
frightened to the last by that good
conscience that is better than earthly
goods. His was sweet sunny un-
selfish disposition. Always ready to
serve and help others Filling an Of
ficial position for many years at An
napolis his frank and sincere man
liness earned him the warm esteem
of all who shared in the affairs of the
State without regard to party ties. In
the duties of his profession he was
untiring in ministering alike to rich
and poor; tender and considerate in
the most sacred intimacies of life.
Although man of the world he kept
to the end the pure and simple heart
of little child. A christian gentleman
a beloved physician, true friend.
May he rest in peace. J. H.

In MEMORY OF
THOMAS ONEM RAUMGARTNER.

Although not in practice for num-

O'Neil Baumgartner never completely
severed his connection with this Bar.
While he was pursuing his profession
he was faithful to the highest ideals,
and was distinguished by a conscient-
ious and painstaking attention to his
work; but his course was soon divert
ed into other channels, and his associ-
alton with the members of this Bar
was not of professional nature but
an agreeable personal one, whose
severance by death was the occasion
for universal regret on the part of the
members of the Bar.
Be it, therefore, resolved that this
resolution be entered in the minutes of
the proceedings of the Court, and that
a copy be sent to the family,

that Annapolis will lose the oppor-

should be the wish of the people of

REALTY FOR RECORD
MUST FIRST SHOW
ON TAX BOOKS

Among the new laws that went
into effect yesterday is one con-
corning the daily routine of bust
ness at the Court House and is of
much interest and importance to
all those having deeds and SIM
liar papers to record in the
Clerks office
Under the new law, before a
paper affecting title to real estate
can be received for record by
the Clerk of the Court, the per-
son offering such paper must first
have gotten from the Clerk to the
County Commissioners stamp or
certificate showing that the new
owner has had the property
transferred to his or her name on
the assessment books OF the
county In this way the land
records and the tax records will
be kept uniform and be a means
OF preventing the confusion and
loss of public revenue that were
unavoidable under the old sys-
TEN.
Another point that is important
to lie borne in mind is that made
a separate and entirely indepen-
dent law, an increase in the
charge for recording papers in
the Clerk of the Courts Office has
been authorized, under which the
raise will be approximately 25 per
cent. over the former schedule
of charges.
