Whereas, The Humane Society of Ann Arbor and the Society for the Protection of Children, recognizing that in the death, on the 5th of this month, of the Rev. Andrew Ten Brook, one of the founders and incorporators of this society and chairman of its board of directors, the society has lost one of its most esteemed and useful members, and

Whereas, As chairman of our education committee he had preserved his active interest in that most effective and far-reaching part of the society's work even to the 85th year of his life activity.

Resolved, That this society record its testimony to the high Christian character of Prof. Ten Brook, his steadfastness of purpose and conscientious devotion to the right, and the important service he has rendered to the humane cause. Though the wisdom of his counsel will bc missed from our meetings and his place in the community may not be filled, the influence of his work among our people and their children will endure from generation to generation.
