A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE PORTION OF SOUTH CAROLINA HIGHWAY 267 IN ORANGEBURG COUNTY FROM ITS INTERSECTION WITH UNITED STATES HIGHWAY 15 TO ITS INTERSECTION WITH UNITED STATES HIGHWAY 301 "REVEREND DR. SAMUEL MARSHALL HIGHWAY" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS ALONG THIS HIGHWAY THAT CONTAIN THE WORDS "REVEREND DR. SAMUEL MARSHALL HIGHWAY".

Whereas, the Reverend Dr. Samuel Booker Marshall was born on February 27, 1922, in St. George, South Carolina, to the late Reverend Jerry M. and Cinderella Davis Marshall; and

Whereas, he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Agriculture from South Carolina State College in 1944 and later earned a Master's of Science degree in Education from South Carolina State College. In 1984 he received an honorary Doctor of Divinity degree from Morris College; and

Whereas, he served as an Agricultural County Agent for Clemson University in Newberry County for many years; and

Whereas, for over fifty years he pastured both Second Providence Baptist Church in Bowman, South Carolina, and Good Hope Baptist Church in St. George, South Carolina; and

Whereas, he was the founder and owner of Shuler-Marshall Funeral Home in Holly Hill, South Carolina; and

Whereas, he was a dedicated public school administrator for many years and served as a member of the Orangeburg County District Three School Board for thirty-two years and its chairman for thirty years; and

Whereas, it is fitting and proper for the members of the General Assembly to name a portion of a highway in Orangeburg County in honor of this remarkable son of South Carolina. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:

That the members of the General Assembly request that the Department of Transportation name the portion of South Carolina Highway 267 in Orangeburg County from its intersection with United States Highway 15 to its intersection with United States Highway 301 "Reverend Dr. Samuel Marshall Highway" and erect appropriate markers or signs along this highway that contain the words "Reverend Dr. Samuel Marshall Highway".

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
