RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT
Card of Thank*
Whereas it has pleases! Almighty
God to remove from our midst by
death, our esteemed friend and
fellow practitioner, Dr. M. E. Mc.
Clure, who has for many years
occupied a prominent rank in our
Society, maintained under all oir-
cumstanecs a character untarnished
and reputation above reproach.
Therefore, he it resolved by the
Cherokee County Medical Society,!
that in the death of Dr. McClure, we
have sustained the loss of a loyal
(friend whose fellowship it was an
honor and a pleasure to enjoy; that
we bear willing testimony to his
many virtues, to his unquestioned
honesty and stainless life that we
offer to his bereaved family and
mourning friends over whom sorrow
has hung her dark mantle, our heart
felt sympathy, and pray that a loving
heavenly Father may bring speedy
relief to their burdened hearts and
inspire them with the consolations
that hope in immortality and faith in
God give, even in the shadow of the
tomb.
Resolved further that a copy of
these resolutions be presented to the
3amily and a copy to the Alto Herald,
Jacksonville Progress and Rusk
Cherokeean for publication.
