San Jose, California
March 8, 1905.
Whereas: In the fulfillment of the order of events in human affairs,
planned and worked out by a Divine hand, Mrs. Jane Lathrop Stanford has
departed this life, and
Whereas, We, the Board of Education of the city of San Jose, recogn-
ize that the cause of education has lost one of its most efficient
workers, and
Whereas, We bow our heads in the greatest respect to a life so devot-
ed, to a work so well done; and we bless the Providence that gave to our
co-worker such a fullness of days in which to perform the task which she
set for herself, and
Whereas: We congratulate the educational world upon not only a life
of devotion, but upon the results of that devotions,
Therefore, be it: Resolved that we extend to her relatives and those
friends near to her in life's trials our heartfelt sympathy in this our
common loss.
