HONOR MEMORY OF PENNYPACKER Notable Tributes Paid to For mer Governor at Meeting in the State Capitol "The light from him will shine over Pennsylvania for years to come," said Governor Brumbaugh in closing a flenditl tribute to the late Samuel W. :nnypacker. Governor and Ptfiilic Service Commissioner, at the memor ial meeting held in the Hall of the House of Representatives at the Capi tol last night. It was an exceptional meeting, something not known in the State's capital city in many years and it was the first meeting of the kind held under auspices of the new Penn sylvania State Society, of which Mr. Pennypacker was a charter member. The words spoken were by men close ly associated with Mr. Pennypacker and coming when his activities had closed and his acts part of the history of the Commonwealth he loved so well i.hey touched many a responsive chord. Cyrus E. Woods, secretary of the I'ommonwealth and president of the society, presided and opened the meet ing by a few words in memory of the Governor. Lilies decorated the speak er's rostrum and palms and ferns were placed upon the platform and beside the flags of the State and nation. In Ihe audience were many men promi nent in official life and in Harrisburg affairs and their families, many of whom were close friends of the Gov ernor and some of whom he had hon ored. Dr. Montgomery's Tribute State Librarian Thomas Lynch Montgomery, a fellow book lover of the distinguished Philadelphian, told of the immensely valuable services he had rendered in collating material rel ative to the history of the Keystone State from original sources, mention ing that the gifts which he bad made or caused to be made to the Historical Society of Pennsylvania at Philadel phia were worth, according to Dr. John W. Jordan, the figure of $425,- 000. Mr. Montgomery spoke of the Pennypacker translations and telling of his work as Governor said that his vetoes were models. Personally, said Mr. Montgomery, he had lost a firm and loyal supporter in all he had done in the State Library and Museum. Spencer C. Gilbert, chairman of the Capitol Park Extension Commission, and a warm personal friend, related some instances of the versatility of the former Governor, his wonderful knowledge and his loyalty to friends and church as well as his interest in Harrisburg. Mr. Gilbert's beautiful tribute expressed the feeling of many residents of this city. John S. Rilling, Public Service Com missioner, and a colleague of Mr. Pennypacker, said that he gave the State wonderful service and that his association with him had not only been delightful but had impressed him with the industry, indefatigability and courtesy of the former Governor. Chairman Ainey, of the commission, being detained by a hearing in Pitts burgh, sent his regret at being un ahie to be present which was express ed by Mr. Woods. The Governor's Words In presenting the Governor, Mr. Woods said that the love for Penn sylvania and its people that had mark ed the former Governor were a strik ig characteristic of his long time the present Governor. Dr. Brumbaugh in opening said the friendship of Governor Pennypacker when he was a young man was an in spiration and that whatever he knew of Pennsylvania history and whatever love he had for the Commonwealth and its people came from his influ ence. He was a great teacher of love and loyalty for Pennsylvania and his works will long endure. The Governor said that City Con troller John M. Walton, of Philadel phia had told him that Mr. Penny packer, when .iudge. had the clearest idea of any judge of the fundamental law of that city and that his decisions were his lucid and conclusive guide. "He knew more about Valley Forge than some people who are talking to day," said the . Governor in another part of his address. "It is to his ini tiative that we owe the Valley Forge Park. He said 'keep Valley Forge for Pennsylvania,' and that is why we kept it for our State instead of turn ing it over to the national government as was done with Gettysburg." The former Governor's love of na ture, his command of trenchant Eng lish. his ability to speak and write so directly and so beautifully were eulo ized by the Governor who said that Mr. Pennypacker was "intellectuallv and morally honest." He wore his heart on his sleeve and some days pecked at it, but the people have come to realize what Samuel W. Pennypack er was and what he did. He wrote sreat acts into the organic law of the Commonwealth and he was a fearless and impartial commissioner. During the exercises the men's chor us sang several selections in keeping with the spirit of the meeting. The following resolution was offered at the conclusion of the addresses by A. B. Millar and adopted after a sec ond by Samuel B. Rambo: "Whereas, the members of the Penn sylvania State Society have heard with deep regret of the demise of their fel low member, tho Honorable Samuel Whltaker Pennypaeker, and "Whereas, the members of the society wish to testify to the affection and es teem in which he was always held by them, be It "Resolved. That in the death of Mr. Pennypaeker the society has lost one of its most distinguished members, the State of Pennsylvania one of its most loyal sons, each member of the society a valued friend. "Resolved. That a copy of this reso lution be sent to the family of tho de ceased and that it be spread on the minutes of the society." The family of Mr. Pennypacker was represented by James and Isaac W. Pennypacker and Miss Pennypacker. I'TIMTV COMPANIES.
