Hamilton At a recent meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Corcoran Gal I lery of Art, colleagues of the late George E. Hamilton, president of { the institution at the time of his j death on May 24, adopted the fol lowing resolution: On May 24, 1946, Mr. George Ernest Hamilton departed this life after a long illness. For 13 years he had been the president of the Board of Trustees of the Corcoran Gallery and for the past 20 years had served as its counsel. His wis riom, experience and broad culture {successfully carried us through the most trying period of our existence. Mr. Hamilton was elected to the Board of Trustees December 17, 1915, chosen second vice president April 9, 1931, and made first vice ; president almost immediately there after. On January 16, 1933, he was j unanimously chosen president and I occupied that office until his death. Throughout his long life he had I been interested in artistic and edu i rational matters and this, combined j with his unusual business ability {and great legal talents, made him | an invaluable adviser and admin jistrator. His sterling character and personal charm endeared him to all of the members of the board, our patrons and the personnel of the gallery'. In his death, we have lost a wise counselor and esteemed friend. Be it resolved that the board hereby expresses its profound sor row in his death and the great loss] which the gallery, the community and the bar have sustained: that we hereby extend to Mrs. Hamil- { ton and the other members of his [ family our deepest sympathy in { their great, affliction, and direct { that a copy of this resolution be recorded in the minutes and trans mitted to them.
