Dr. Isaac Lincoln Drake
Resolutions of the Lebanon Medical Society.
Whereas, It has pleased Almighty God to remove from his earthly sphere our
worthy professional associate, Dr. I. L. Drake, of Lebanon, Ohio, one of
the oldest, ablest; most devoted and useful members of this society, we,
his surviving brothers, deeply conscious of the loss we have sustained,
wish formally to record our high appreciation of his character, his work
and his worth.
Be it therefore
Resolved, That we hereby express our sincere grief for the sadly sudden
death of our friend, an elegant, cultivated gentleman, active, earnest,
patient in his search after truth, constant, courageous and firm in
maintaining the truth as he saw it, an honest Christian man. In obedience
to the Almighty power that rules the destinies of men, that build up or
cast down, that can give or take away, we bow in humble submission about
the bier of our departed fellow member and professional brother.
Resolved, That we most heartily tender to Dr. Drake's bereaved family and
relatives this expression of our profound sympathy, and the acknowledgment
that in his death we lose a true and cherished friend and co-laborer; and
be it further
Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the family of the
deceased, and that they be furnished to the papers of Lebanon, the
Cincinnati Lancet and Clinic and to the Journal of the American Medical
Association.
