ADIE LIJHI AL CA JJ EIU Y. In Memoriam. EDKWIN BEERS. DIED, NOVEMBER IBTH, 1894. Extract from the records of the Board of Trustees for February 18, 1895 : To, thc already long list of departed worthies who have been con- nected with the Board of Trustees of the Adelphi Academy, must now be added the name of Mr. Edwin Beers, one ofthe original members of the Board and its Treasurer for two years. At tl1e'Board meetings he was habitually a regular and punctual attendant, bringing there the- same business capacity, the same circunispection, the same fairness which characterized him as a successful merchant. We shall nmiss his quiet Ways as much as We shall miss his Wise counsels. As individuals we all have felt the infiuence of his unobtrusive goodness and of his devotion to duty. To his family we extend our heartiest sympathy in their severe affliction, and beg to assure them that the memory of his example will always go with us as an incentive to a higher measure of faithfulness to the trust committed to us, in which he has shared for more than a quarter of a century.
