Newman. Scheid - _--- � Wells • \ Mr.Chairman . Result RESOLII+ION WHEREAS, Harper J. Dininny, City Attorney for Salt Lake City has departed this life in which he held first rank as a man and as a. lawyer; and, WHERRAS, it is fitting that this Board subscribe to the splendid record made by ?:`r. Dininny during his twelve years of unremitting service to Salt Lake City; and, l+irE'REAS, his passing is a great loss to the City he served so well and a deep sorrow to this Board, whose members held him in high regard, both as counselor and friend; now therefore be it RESOLVED, that this Board does hereby express its unmeasured appreciation of Pr. Dininny, his life and char- acter. His services to the City will endure far beyond the generation he was a part of. In the hearts of his many friends the memory of him will live undimmed, cherished as something to be guarded against the forgetfulness of the years. As a lawyer he was a fearless and honorable adher- ent to the law as he knew it. policy and compromise were to him unknown. Careless of personal interest he stood al- ways for the right, interpreting the law with high-minded ability, and ever ready to stand by his position with all the force of nis earnest soul. That in the fine simplicity of his character, his intelligent devotion to duty, and in his unimpeachable ad- -2- herence to honor and high morality, in private as in public life, Mr. Dininny approached close to the ideal of christian citizenship. The whole community will mourn his passing as the loss of a rare and lovable personality - a man for whose living his fellows are the better. BE IT FIRTHER RESOLVED that these resolutions be spread upon the minutes of this meeting and a copy tendered to the family of our friend. � _ � ,..": /:�' '--..0- 1,-,ems • tom-, , eflopassed by the Board of Commis-i. er o1' salt Lake City, Utah, September 10, 1917. ^Tayor City Recorder.
