After Judge Knapp had tendered his resignation as president of the organization, the attorneys voted that the old officers of the Lackawanna Law and Library association be continued until the end of their term.

There was a general discussion as to what plans would be used in the organization of the association with the result that a special committee of five, Attorneys S. B. Price, W. J. Fitzgerald, W.
