WHEREAS, Comrade William A.

Resolved, That the thanks of our several Associations are due to Comrade Spicer for the patient persistency displayed in his search for material, and the skill with which he has woven the threads of his narrative, as well as for the careful discrimination displayed in the production of a book which may find its welcome in the family circle, or the public library, as well as at the camp-fire : and,
Resolved, As a further testimonial of our appreciation, that Comrade William A. Spicer be, and he is, hereby appointed Treasurer, to receive and to disburse all funds appropriated or coming from the sale of books, reporting as required to this committee, or its successor.
