Drawing his life-springs from lines which have shed lustre on the annals of his native State, and of our common country, he nobly exemplified in his happy and protracted life the worth of his descent. The lessons presented by his dutiful career, and as limned in his delightful Recollections, can but be potent in inspiring posterity. Resolved, 1st. That the death of General Dabney H. Maury is an impressive loss to Virginia, to our country, and to this Society, of which he was one of the earliest and most zealous promoters, and whose interests and objects have been constantly since, first in his affections — as evinced so signally in results as Chairman of its Executive Committee. Resolved, 2d. This Society would express its profound sympathy with the family of General Maury in the poignant loss they have sustained. Robert Stiles, Secretary. Chairman, pro tern. R. A. Brock
