    Deacon Truman Saunders was born in Berlin, New York Nov. 13,1814 and died Nov. 24, 1894, aged 80 years and11 day. He movedto Illinois in 1854, where he resided until he came to Miltonfifteen years ago. He bought a large tract of land in Illinoisand by industry,act and economy he succeeded in paying for andimproving his land which though sold to others is now worth $100per acre. But Deacon Saunders will be remembered not for whathe acquired of real estate, but for what he was, anunexceptionably fine man. He was of excellent stock to beginwith; received a good educationfor those days, taught school inNew Jersey when young, was afterwards a merchant and finally amodel farmer. He was successful in everything owing to hisnatural talent, application, honesty and many qualities whichcombine to render one successful in life. Above all he was aconsciencious christian, kind and gentlein his intercourse withothers and firm as a rock where any principle was involved. Heleaves a daughter, four sons and two sisters. The funeralexercises werelargely attended on Tuesday at the S. D. B.Church of which he was an esteemedmember, Rev. E. M. Dunnofficiating assisted by President Whitford.

    "The Janesville Gazette", Tuesday, Feb 21, 1882.
    Milton - On Friday afternoon, Deacon Saunders received atelegram from Milwaukee announcing that his son Truman W.Saunders had suffereda stroke of apoplexy. Mr. and Mrs.Saunders took the night train for the city,but arrived toolate, their son dieing before their arrival. The sad news sentathrill of horrer through our community, where the deceased waswell known and had a large circle of friends and acquaintances.The deceased dpent a number of years as a student here, andgraduated here. After his graduation at Williams College hebecame a member of our College Faculty, and remained here inthat capacity until he took up his residence in Milwaukee.During his connection with the college he made an extensiveacquaintance with those from abroad who were students, and amonghis fellow citizens. He was highly esteemed for his truemanlinessthrough culture and curteous manners. His untimelydeath, occuring as it did when he was entirely alone, withoutthe kind offices of wife, mother, father or friend makes it oneof the saddest occurances ever brought to our notice. His heartbroken wife and grief stricken relatives have the heartysympathy of our community in this their hour of sorrow.President Whitford and Prof. W. F. Place, a classmate of thedeceased, attended the funeral. It is probable that the remainswill be brought here for interment. The following clippings arefrom the Milwaukee Wisconsin, and Republican and News:
    "Truman W. Saunders, an accound of whose sad case appeared inlast night's Wisconsin, died at 2 o'clock this morning.
    It is now supposed the bursting of a blood vessel in his brainresulted from violent retching as undigested food which had beenthrown from his stomach was found by the bedside. Thephysicians say that the ??ffusion of blood was so violent thatMr. Saunders could not have been saved had medical attentionbeen summonedat the moment the vessel broke.
    Mr. Saunders, who was born in Rensselaer County, N. Y., was oneof the purest and most honorable and faithful members of theMilwaukee bar. His college career was brilliant and his recordas a professor inMarkham Academy first class. He was agraduate of Alfred University, N. Y., Milton College andWilliams College, and in School and at his profession was aconspicuous and untiring student. He had practiced law threeyears in Milwaukee, and for some time had been the trustedattourney of the Wheeler & Wilson Manufacturing Company.
    His wife with her father and little child will arrive from theeast tomorrow; his parents arrived from Rock County today.
    Mr. Saunders was prominent member of the Allen Council, RoyalArcanum, from which order his widow will receive $3,000."

    Sudden death of Rev. E. B. Saunders
    At 10:45 a. m., lastThursday morning, we were greatly shockedto receive a telegram from Mrs. Saunders, then at Washington, D.C., telling of the sudden death of her husband, Rev.E. B.Saunders, from acute indigestion. We know nothing further ofthe particulars as to his last hours on earth. On the Tuesdaybefore, Secretary Saunders was in Plainfield [NJ] on his way toconference with his wife and daughter, makingthe trip to Salem,W. Va., in their automobile. It was their purpose to stop inWashington. They left here [Plainfield] Tuesday and this sadtelegram was thenext word that reached us. It states thatburial will be at Milton, Wis.
    All hearts will go out in sympathy for the wife, son anddaughter so suddenly bereaved. The General Conference thatconvenes next Tuesday will deeply mourn the denomination's loss,and its sessions will be so saddened as it sits under the shadowof so great a sorrow.

    ALBERTA CRANDALL WAS A WOMAN OF MUSICAL TALENT

    In1909 Dr. Jairus M. Stillman resigned from his post aschairman of the Department of Music at Milton College. Hissuccessor was the first, and only, woman to hold the post, MissAlberta Crandall.
    Crandall had been a teacher in the department since 1903, firstas an instructor in Piano Playing, next as instructor of Violin,Viola and Violincello
    Playing.
    She was born on April 20, 1879 in Lexington, KY. A graduate ofMilton College, Crandall studied at the college's SchoolofMusic from 1893 to 1898.
    Not only an instrumental music instructor, CRANDALL was also anaccomplished composer. Her song 'Where the Elm Trees Bend TheirBranches,' was sung traditionally by the college's Treble Clefall female choir.
    Treble Clef was organized and directed in 1913 by Prof. L. H.Stringer. The following year the membership enlarged andCrandall was given the
    position of director.
    By 1921 the choir had grown to include 32 girls. During thatyear Crandall suffered poor health. She gave up her work nearthe end of first semester, brought in Miss Beth BINGHAM to takecharge of her classes and went to Californiato rest andrecuperate.
    Her health restored, she returned to Milton in 1922 andcontinued her career. In June of 1948 CRANDALL was presentedthe Milton College alumni 'Pillar of Milton' award, the highesthonor bestowed by the alumni association.
    Crandall never married, but she was affectionately known as'Miss Alberta' by her students. In 1949, after 45 years ofteaching, she retired, only toreturn in September of 1949 toserve as an assistant in the music department until June of1950. She continued to teach music out of her home followingher retirement."
