At a meeting of members of the class of 1885 who are resident in Cambridge, the following resolutions upon the death of A. E. Strong were adopted. It was voted that they be printed in the CRIMSON and Advocate and that a copy be sent to the parents of the deceased.
In the death of Abner Ernest Strong, we feel that the hand of Providence has taken from our number one whose earnest life, high endeavor, and steadfast character has gained our sincere respect and esteem. As his classmates, we have recognized his success as a student; as his friends, we have seen those genial qualities which spring from generous impulse and which cement true friendship. We remember, too, at the time, with satisfaction his deep and constant Christian faith and his active Christian influence. At the same time we feel, and desire to express a heartfelt serrow at the loss we have sustained in the early death of one in whom the promise and power of usefulness was so great, and we extend to his family the assurance of our full sympathy in this, their keen affliction.
