Joint Resolution relative to the death of the late Professor
Otto Fuchs.
SECTION 1. Be it resolved by the General Assembly of Mary-

1429

land, That its members have heard with the keenest sensi-
bility the distressing intelligence that the useful and honored
life of Professor Otto Fuchs, of the Maryland Institute
Schools of Art and Design, has come to an end. Gifted
beyond the ordinary measure of human endowments, irre-
proachable in point of character, placed by his talents and
attainments in a situation that enabled him to leave a deep
impress upon the minds and energies of many pupils whose
careers, creditable both to themselves and the State, have
borne indisputable testimony to the worth of such a pre-
ceptor, it is meet that this action of the General Assembly
of Maryland should enduringly attest the high position that
he won in the confidence and gratitude of the community
whose higher welfare he did so much to promote.

Death of Prof.
Otto Fuchs.
