"SUPREME COURT OF ALABAMA, "Montgomery, February 13th, 1862. "Resolutions adopted at a meeting of the Bar of the Supreme Court of Alabama, held at the Capitol at Montgomery, on Wednesday, February 5th, 1862, to take some suitable notice of the death of EGBERT J. JONES, EDWARD C. BULLOCK, and JAMES B. MARTIN.

"The resolutions were presented to the Court on Thursday morning by Abram Martin, Esq., Chairman of the meeting, who accompanied them with appropriate remarks, which were responded to by the Chief Justice; and they were then ordered to be spread upon the minutes of the Court, and are as follows:

“Resolved, That the Bar of the Supreme Court of Alabama is penetrated with a profound sorrow at the loss it has sustained, since the last term of this Court, in the death of EGBERT J. JONES, EDWARD C. BULLOCK, and JAMES B. MARTIN, honored members of the bar of this Court, who occupied the first rank among the most worthy, intellectual, and able members of the profession.

"Resolved, That this sorrow, though deep, is greatly alleviated by the reflection, that they laid down their lives a willing sacrifice to liberty and their country. These noble men have manifested to the Northern despotism, and to their own beloved country, that the model men of the South, her men of genius, character and piety, hold it sweet and glorious to die for their country in this contest.

"Resolved, That, in imitation of these bright examples, we hope and believe, that the Bar of Alabama, as a body,

would sooner lie in honored graves, beside JONES, BULLOCK and MARTIN, than ever submit to Northern domination; and that we will never look to any conclusion of this unholy war, but the independence of our country, or her utter annihilation.

"Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be presented by the Chairman of this meeting to the Supreme Court, with the request that they be spread upon the minutes of the Court."
