Stokes requested to sot as Secretary. The Chairman stated the objeot of the meeting was to draft suitable resolutions on the death of Judgo ROBERT MUNRO and have them presented to the C nrf. ? On motion of T. ^B. Butler, Col. I. G. McK ss ck, Mnj. D. A. Townsend and C. C. Culp, Esq , wore appointed a committee to draft visible resolutions on the death of tatt Muuro and present them to ^ftmorning sossion of the Court Col. MoKisslok presented i evolutions, accompanied by some very fueling remarks, and'asked that they be spread upon tho Minutes of the lfiturl. Col. D. It. Duncan. C. C. Gulp and J. C. Wallace, Esq's., responded to tho resolutions in very appropriate and eloquent remarks. Judge Fiascr also paid a he&rtful tubule to the illustrious dead, and erdored the preumble and resolutions to bo spread upon tho minuds, and that the court stand adjourned in ro*pect for the lamented Judge Robert Muoro until Friday morning at 9 1 o'clock. Death has again entered our community and summoned hence an esteemed and honored -member. On the 6th day of May, 1889, at his residence in the town of Uuion, the lion. ROBERT MU.NRO departed this life, in the 98d year of his age. Judge Muoro was horu ia Charleston, 8. C., August 19th, 1796. He received his eduoation inSootlaud, the former home of his parents. Ho scrvod in the Merchant ' Marino service during hi* youth. His vessel was so near that ho heard distinctly the battlo of Waterloo. During his said sorvico he visited nearly all the ports of the world. He was admitted to the Bar in 1823, and almost immediately acquired and preserved for 80 years a largo and luorativo practice. He represented his Distriot in the Stato Senato for some years. In 1863 he was oleoted one of tho CirIouit Judges of the State of South Carolina, and continued to hold that honorable posiI tion until the days of reconstruction, whan 1 all the old Jlldcrfta w?r? dnnnanil r? r? that lime until his death lie practiced law i at Union C. II. in copartnership with his son, tho lion. William Munre. Suoh is a brief outline of the history of the deoeased. It is diffiouit to do full jus- I tice in a brief spaoe to the many noble qualities which adorned his character and illustrated his life. As a citizon ho was exemplary, and as a Judgo he was upright, conscientious and impartial. In all tho relations of life ho strove to do h:s duty. His mind was naturally clear and strong, and hod been improved by study and oultivalion. These advantages of themselves are sufficient to m&ko a successful lawyer, but in other respeols, too, his mind was eminently fitted for the profession of his ehoioe and gave him deservedly a high reputation all over our State. In oommemorating tho virtues of our departed friend there is another quality which marked his character, and which in its highest manifestations is as rare as it is honorable ; that is, an honest independence of mind in forming and maintaining his opinions, and in expressing them on all proper occasions. This grand prinoiple of his character was well tested and oxoinplified in the days of reconstruction, when he was deposed from the office of Judge ; for vflPV snrm nfiKa?ln? # Nwtiujj uvvu vuoioa the same position by the party in power he gpurncd tho offer and rejected the office, declining e?eu the appearance of affiliating 'with wH "party. 1a paying our la?t tribute to our doparted friend we may truly say that lie li?od the life of a noble gentleman and died-the death of an huinblo christian. As a mark of our respect for the character nod memory of the deceased, Be it Rttolved, 1. That in tho doathof Judge Hubert Munro, our community hat sustained a loss that oannot be filled, and tho Bar has lost one of its most honest and upright members, and tho State of South Carolina one of its brightost oraamorts. 2d. That we respectfully tender our sincore aondolence to the bercared members of his family, and.as?uro them of our sympathy. 3d. That these proceedings bo presented to tbe presiding Judgo at the next term of the Circuit Court with the request that the same be entered upou the Minutes of the Court, and a blank page be insoribed to his memory. 4th. That a copy of this preamble and resolutions be transmitted to the family of ine accessed. 6th. That these proceedings be published in the Union Timki. * A Fatal Riot at Dulutu.?Duluth Minn., July 0.?This evening fifteen hundred street employees who went on a strike a few days ago became unruly and attaoked the police with stones and clubs, compelling them to fire.
