Death Notes: Obituary - Hartford Courant, 25 Apr 1937: D. D. BIDWELL IN 71st YEAR // Rites for East Hartford Civic Leader, Newspaperman and World Traveler to Be Monday // Daniel D. Bidwell of 318 Burnside Avenue, East Hartford, war correspondent, newspaperman, short story writer and civic leader, died at the Hartford hospital early Saturday morning after a brief illness. He was in his seventy-first year.
A traveler with a keen news sense, Mr. Bidwell found much of interest in two round-the-world trips, several visits to European countries and during his work in various parts of the United States. He was, in 1911, holder of the record for travel around the globe, east to west.
The funeral will be held at St. John's Episcopal Church, East Hartford, Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock, with Rev. James W. Lord, rector of the church officiating. Burial will be in Center Cemetery. Friends may call at the Whitney Funeral Home, 921 Main Street East, Hartford, until noon Monday.
Exiles to Attend Rites. // Harry N. Anderson, commandant of the Hartford Exiles of which Mr. Bidwell was a charter member, historian, and executive committee member, has named the following delegation of eight Exiles to represent the organization at the funeral:
Colonel Anson T. McCook, Major Frank E. Johnson, George B. Armstead, George E. Stansfield, Ward E. Duffy, Fred E. Innes, James E. Rhodes, 3rd, and J. Alley Wiley.
Commandant Anderson will be one of the bearers. Other members will attend the funeral at the church in body.
Born in East Hartford, August 7, 1866, Mr. Bidwell was the son of Charles M. and Emma W. (Brewer) Bidwell, and a descendant of some of the early settlers of this section. He was educated in the public schools of Hartford, and was graduated from Yale University in the class of 1886.
Was Newspaperman. // While in college his interest were of a literary nature, and upon graduation he entered the newspaper field, becoming a member of the staff of the Springfield Union. From that city he went to Jacksonville, Fla., where he was news editor of the Florida Times-Union. A short time after this he became one of the editors of the New York Ledger, and then served other New York newspapers and press associations before returning to Hartford in 1895 to join the Hartford Post. Upon leaving this paper he went to work for the Hartford Times, and later for The Courant.
He was for some years active in the old Second Division, Naval Militia, which took many cruises to the Caribbean on the United States gunboat "Machias." While a member of the division he assisted in arranging the athletic meets which the division gave for several years at the State Armory.
Mr. Bidwell was married in 1891 to Miss Edith Mary Mines of Broad Brook. Besides his wife he leaves a daughter, Mrs. Pauline B. Hickmott of Hartford and a son, Joseph B. Bidwell.
He was a member of St. John's Church, and of the Masonic, Odd Fellows and Knights of Pythias lodges in East Hartford, as well as of the Grange. Mr. Bidwell was one of the most active members of the Hartford Exiles, which numbers among its members many prominent men active in France during the World War.
In 1905 and again in 1907 he represented East Hartford in the General Assembly, and for some time served as a member of the School Board. He was also a member of the building committee under whose direction the Second North School in East Hartford was constructed.
Mr. Bidwell was one of the original directors of the East Hartford Trust Company, organized 20 years ago, and resigned only last year because of poor health. He participated actively in the work of several other companies, and developed East Hartford real estate. He served in various capacities with committees of the East Hartford Chamber of Commerce.
Besides his newspaper and historical work, Mr. Bidwell was at one time an active short story writer, and his stories appeared in many magazines of national circulation.
Courant War Correspondent. // Mr. Bidwell was appointed war correspondent for The Courant in October 1917, but it was not until December that he sailed from New York to Brest, France, landing in that port on December 10. He had made six previous trips into the war zone, the first when Austria and Serbia were at war. He obtained this first eye-witness story of the fighting at Liege when Belgium was invaded, and undertook a free-lance commission to write for several papers.
He was in Lille the day before it was entered by the German troops and witnessed their actual arrival in the city. Making his way through the German and Allied lines to Dunkirk, he returned to the United State. He returned to the war zone when the "Lusitania" was sunk landing in Glasgow and going to Ireland, where he was the first of the American writers to pick up the story of John Redmond's forming of the Irish Brigade. He then made his way to France, and falling under suspicion, was detained for several days for investigation, but was released when the British and French decided he was not a spy.
He returned to the United States and subsequently made several trips to Scandinavia, Spain, Italy and England before becoming The Courant correspondent with the American troops.
While with the American troops, Mr. Bidwell secured a great deal of information regarding the activities of Connecticut men and women serving at the battle front, and following the Armistice, wrote a series of graphic pen pictures of the famous battlefields and high official in the Army.
Covered Peace Conference. // Mr. Bidwell covered the peace conferences for The Courant, and while acting in that capacity was elected a director of the United States Press Association, composed of members of the American press.
It was on New Year's day in 1919 that Mr. Bidwell and 11 other Hartford residents temporarily "exiled" to France by their duties in the AEF, formed a society, unique among war organizations the "Hartford Exiles," who at the time called themselves "Exiles from Hartford and Apostles to the Parisians," in the Hotel Regina's American grill room.
The organization, at whose initial meeting were combatant and non-combatant members of different branches of the American Expeditionary Forces, thus forming a cross-section of the AEF, has continued to this day, and each New Year's Day meets in Hartford, and adds a member of two to its ranks. Mr. Bidwell and Harry N. Anderson, who served overseas with the AEF-YMCA, have been the moving spirits in the group since it was organized.
Mr. Bidwell represented Governor Templeton of Connecticut in the laying of the cornerstone of the memorial fountain donated by Connecticut troops to the town of Seicheprey, scene of some of the fiercest fighting in which they were engaged. He also presented flowers from Caldwell Colt Robinson Post, Veterans of Foreign Wars, and was the bearer of a letter from Mayor Kinselia of Hartford to the Mayor of Seicheprey.
Aided Ex-Service Men. // During the long contact with military men, Mr. Bidwell became thoroughly imbued with the military spirit, and was untiring in his activities on the behalf of ex-service men. He was the author of a book, "East Hartford's Part in the World War," tracing the activities of people from that town during the World War, as well as several other books and pamphlets on military subjects.
He was a frequent contributor to newspapers and magazines, and two years ago won a prize for the best short story in the American Legion Monthly. The story, based on his experiences while detained by the British for investigations, was entitled "The Yankee Spy."
Globe-Circling Record. // Nearly by accident Mr. Bidwell was, for some time, holder of the world's record for a West-East trip around the globe. Leaving Hartford in 1911 for a brief rest in Montreal he decided upon reaching the latter city to take a trip around the world. After racing to the west coast in a short time, he decided to make an effort to see how fast he could make the entire trip. By ship and train, and despite an enforced delay of three days in Japan he completed the trip from New York to New York in 46 days, 23 hours and 45 minutes, bettering the record of Cecil Gray, and Englishman by eight days.
Delegations to Attend Funeral. // Announcement was made Saturday that delegations from Orient Lodge of Masons, Crescent Lodge of Odd Fellows; Lodge No. 63, Knights of Pythias; Rochambeau-Elms Post, VFW, of which Mr. Bidwell was an honorary member; Brown-Landers Post, American Legion, and the British War Veterans, would send delegations of their members to the funeral. The Veterans of Foreign Wars will stand guard over the body this evening from 7 to 10 o'clock and the ritual will be read by Chaplin Charles Phelps of Rochambeau-Elms Post at 8 p. m.
The bearers will be Lieutenant Colonel Anson T. McCook, Henry Bryant, Ralph W. Neal, Robert Cooper, George S. Miltimore and Charles P. Carter. Honorary bears will be S. Wesley Nesbitt, Rollin U. Tyler, Harry N. Anderson, Everett E. Pilling, John J. Burke, George Goodwin, George E. Slye and H. Howard Brewer.

She passed away in the comfort of her family home in which she was blessed to have lived for the last 55 years. Her son David, daughter Catherine, niece Joan Barnes, daughter-in-law Josette, two granddaughters, and two great-grandchildren survive her. Lorin Larsen, her husband of 59 years and their son Thomas, predeceased her. "Ginnie" as she was known by her friends, was a native of Sacramento and attended McClatchy High School, where she and her husband-to-be, Lorin, became high school sweethearts and later married in 1953. She graduated from the University of California at Berkeley with honors and was a legacy and member of Zeta Tau Alpha (ZTA) sorority. She is a direct descendent of the 3rd Vice-President of the United States, Aaron Burr, Jr. who served under President Thomas Jefferson. Her paternal ancestors the Burrs, Lords and Breeds have been in America since 1676, and lived in Massachusetts during the American Revolutionary War. Also of historical significance, her ancestor Breed was involved in the "Battle of Bunker Hill" in 1775, with the majority of combat taking place on Breed's Hill. Ginnie's paternal great-grandparent, Edwin Allyn Burr, settled in Sacramento in 1850. The Burr family was prominent and active in Sacramento for four generations and third generation alums of UC Berkeley. Her maternal grandparent, Whitefield Webster Bacon of Concord, California, built the historic landmark Bacon Block, a merchant and boarding house in 1914, which is still operating today. Ginnie's maternal ancestors trace their arrival in America back to 1640 in Massachusetts. Ginnie was an avid golfer, bridge and card player, and reader, as well as a devoted wife and mother. She will be greatly missed. Her memorial service will be held on September 28, 3:00pm at Gethsemane Lutheran Church, 4706 Arden Way, Carmichael. A reception immediately to follow at the Dittman residence.

Death Notes: Obituary - Associated Press Archive, 4 Dec 2002: SHELBURNE, Vt. (AP) -- Henry Chauncey, the man credited with turning the SAT into an admission standard used by thousands of colleges and universities, died Tuesday. He was 97.
Chauncey founded the Educational Testing Service to administer the SAT out of a belief that access to the nation's colleges should be decided through merit, rather than through family connections.
A former assistant dean at Harvard University, Chauncey started Princeton, N.J.-based ETS in 1947 and served as its president until 1970. He also was a director of the New York-based College Board, the organization that sponsors the SAT.
During his tenure with ETS, higher education embraced standardized tests as a determining factor in the college admissions process. The SAT was taken by 1.3 million college-bound high school seniors in 2001.
Chauncey and ETS were also responsible for the Graduate Management Admissions Test and other exams used around the world.

Obituary - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 5 Dec 2002: HENRY CHAUNCEY MEMBER OF OLD ELITE WHO REVOLUTIONIZED COLLEGE ENTRANCE TESTING
Henry Chauncey, who shaped the nation's standardized testing practices and, through them, a new meritocracy as founder of the Educational Testing Service, died Tuesday at his home in Shelburne, Vt. He was 97.
With the backing of his patron, James Bryant Conant, the president of Harvard University, Mr. Chauncey helped create a system that opened the most elite universities to young people who performed well on academic achievement tests.
He began proselytizing for the use of standardized tests in the late 1930s, when, as assistant dean of the faculty at Harvard University and chairman of its scholarship committee, he persuaded the College Board to introduce achievement tests as a basis for choosing scholarship students.
"He believed in meritocracy. He believed that the people who should be admitted to colleges were people who deserved it based on their intelligence and achievement," said Mr. Chauncey's son Henry, who is known as Sam. "When he started the national scholarship program at Harvard, it only admitted young people from blueblood schools.
"He crisscrossed the country, looking for qualified people from little-known high schools," Sam Chauncey said. "He found James Tobin and Casper Weinberger and John Morton Blum. But he knew he needed a better way to measure the young person from Topeka, Kan., against one from a well-known school, and that was his motive in starting ETS."
Standardized tests like the SAT have since become a central feature of American academic life -- financially, through fees for the tests and the tutoring services they have spawned, and socially, as gatekeeper to the nation's leading colleges and bane of millions of anxious students and parents.
"He was a remarkable person, a really important historical figure," said Nicholas Lemann, the author of "The Big Test," (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1999) a history of standardized testing. "Together, he and Conant created a system that shapes the life of most Americans. There's nothing quite like it in any other country, and it wouldn't have happened without them."
Lemann added: "Henry was a creature of the old elite. He exemplified the best qualities of that elite: He was very public-spirited, positive and energetic. There's some irony in the fact that he used those qualities to work ceaselessly to replace the elite he grew up in with a new elite that he probably wouldn't have been in."
Without question, Mr. Chauncey's family background placed him squarely in the old elite. The first of his ancestors to come to America, a Puritan minister who was a professor of Greek at Cambridge, left England for Massachusetts in 1637 after he was imprisoned for publishing a treatise protesting the placement of a railing around the communion table.
Henry Chauncey was born Feb. 9, 1905. His father, Egisto, a minister, was rector of Episcopal churches, first in Mount Kisco, N.Y., then Columbus, Ohio. Henry was sent to Groton, where he was senior prefect. But for all its social standing, the family had little money, so when Mr. Chauncey finished at Groton, he attended Ohio State for a year, until a Wall Street financier arranged to help finance his education at Harvard.
But it was at Ohio State that Mr. Chauncey became interested in the emerging field of "mental testing." At Harvard, where there was not yet a psychology department, Mr. Chauncey majored in philosophy and took some courses at the education school that touched on testing.
In his early years, it might have seemed that Mr. Chauncey's prodigious energies would find their outlet in sports. He began playing baseball as a child in Mount Kisco, and at Groton, he was captain of the baseball team and played football and basketball. At Harvard, too, Mr. Chauncey was a football and baseball star. But in 1927, he twice turned down offers to play professionally with the Boston Braves.
He graduated from Harvard in 1928, majoring in philosophy and psychology. A year later, he was back at Harvard as assistant dean of freshman, responsible for the administration of freshmen scholarships -- and assistant coach of freshman football and baseball.
Mr. Chauncey resigned from Harvard in 1945 to become associate director, then director, of the College Entrance Examination Board in Princeton, N.J.
The Educational Testing Service was a post-World War II creation. In 1946, with hundreds of thousands of veterans clamoring to enroll in college, the Carnegie Committee on Testing recommended a merger of the American Council of Education, the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Testing, and the College Entrance Examination Board, to streamline the college-admissions process.
Mr. Chauncey served as president of ETS from its beginning in 1947 until his retirement in 1970. Under his leadership, ETS created such tests as the Graduate Management Admissions Test and the Law School Admissions Test.
Mr. Chauncey was married three times. He was divorced from his first wife, Elizabeth Phalen. His second wife, Laurie Worcester, died. He is survived by Phalen and his third wife, Janet, and eight children: William, Henry, Ann, Donald, Susan C. Horkey, Caroline T., Deborah L. and Sarah K.; 14 grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren.

Henry married Elizabeth PHALEN [8634] 2007,2008,2009 on 6 Jun 1932 in West Newton, Middlesex, Massachusetts.2009 The marriage ended in divorce in 1953. Elizabeth was born on 15 Jun 1912 in Hingham, Plymouth, Massachusetts2008 and died on 16 Oct 2013 in Shelburne, Chittenden, Vermont, at age 101.

Death Notes: Obituary - The Allentown Leader, Allentown, Pennsylvania, 15 Mar 1904: DIED AT THE ALLEN // Traveling Man Expires in His Room at the Hotel. // DEATH DUE TO Heart Trouble. // F. A.

Boise, aged about 45 years, of Jamaica, Long Island, traveling for Mack Bros. & Co., jobbers in tailor's trimmings at 8 West Fourth Street, New York City, was found dead in his room at the Hotel Allen this morning.
Mr. Boise was a traveling man of the quiet, business-like kind, and had been coming to Allentown for years, always stopping at the Allen. He did business with all the clothing houses of Allentown.
He left New York Monday for Allentown on the Black Diamond. He got sick on the train, and falling into a stupor was carried to Mauch Chunk. He took the first train back, arriving in Allentown at 5:30. When he registered he complained of feeling badly, but declined the services of a doctor, asking for a hot punch and some quinine.
At 7 o'clock a waiter was sent to his room with a bill of fare. Mr. Boise said he felt better and refused to eat in his room, soon after making his way to the dining room. After supper he wrote several letters and chatting with acquaintances until 9 o'clock, went to bed.
His violent coughing caused some comment and several times during the night he was asked if he wanted a doctor, always declining. He had a particularly bad spell of coughing about 5 o'clock. He had left a call for 7 o'clock, but didn't answer. Half an hour later his room was entered through a door from an adjoining room. It was at first thought he was only unconscious, but Dr. Huebner who was quickly summoned, pronounced him dead. Both Dr. Huebner and Coroner Scheirer said death was due to paralysis of the heart. An inquest was deemed unnecessary.
The body was removed to Undertakers Burkholder's establishment and the firm and the man's family notified.

General Notes: Francis Emroy Warren (June 20, 1844 - November 24, 1929) was an American politician of the Republican Party best known for his years in the United States Senate representing Wyoming. A soldier in the Union Army during the American Civil War, he was the last veteran of that conflict to serve in the U.S. Senate.
Early life and military service - Warren was born on June 20, 1844 in Hinsdale, Berkshire County, Massachusetts and grew up attending common schools and his local Hinsdale Academy. During the civil war, Warren served in the 49th Regiment, Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry as a noncommissioned officer. At the age of nineteen at the siege of Port Hudson, Warren received the Medal of Honor for battlefield gallantry. His entire platoon was destroyed by Confederate bombardment and Warren, taking a serious scalp wound, disabled the artillery. Warren later served as a captain in the Massachusetts Militia.
Following the civil war, Warren engaged in farming and stock-raising in Massachusetts before moving to Wyoming (then part of the Territory of Dakota) in 1868. Settling in Cheyenne, Warren engaged in real estate, mercantile business, livestock raising and the establishment of Cheyenne's first lighting system, becoming quite wealthy.
Warren's political work included: member, Wyoming Territorial Senate (1873-1874, 1884-1885), serving as senate president; member, Cheyenne City Council (1873-1874); treasurer of Wyoming (1876, 1879, 1882, 1884); and Mayor of Cheyenne (1885).
In February 1885, Warren was appointed Governor of the Territory of Wyoming by President Chester A. Arthur, although he was removed by Democratic President Grover Cleveland in November 1886. He was reappointed by President Benjamin Harrison in March, 1889, and served until 1890, when he was elected first Governor of Wyoming (October 11, 1890 - November 24, 1890).
Senate years and death - In November 1890, Warren resigned as governor, having been elected to the United States Senate as a Republican, serving until March 4, 1893. He then resumed his former business pursuits before returning to the senate (March 4, 1895-November 24, 1929). During his long senate service, Mr. Warren was chairman of the several Senate Committees:
Committee on Irrigation and Reclamation of Arid Lands- Committee on Claims- Committee on Irrigation- Committee on Military Affairs- Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds- Committee on Agriculture and Forestry- Committee on Appropriations- Committee on Engrossed Bills.
Senator Warren died on November 24, 1929 in Washington, D.C. His funeral service was held in the United States Senate chamber. At the time of his death, Warren had served longer than any other US Senator.
Legacy - F. E. Warren Air Force Base in Cheyenne, Wyoming is named after Warren. Additionally, Warren's daughter married then-Captain John J. Pershing in 1905. Several years later, President Theodore Roosevelt promoted Pershing from captain to brigadier general over 900 senior officers. Pershing's wife and three daughters were later killed during a fire at the Presidio in San Francisco. Warren was also the first senator to hire a female staffer and, as appropriations chairman during World War I, he was instrumental in funding the American efforts. Warren and his second wife, Clara LaBarron Morgan, bought the Nagle Warren Mansion in April, 1910, and their dining room hosted people such as Presidents Teddy Roosevelt and William Howard Taft.

Death Notes: Obituary - The Daily Chronicle, DeKalb, Illinois, 11 Dec 1933: FRANK S. COREY DIES SATURDAY // Well Known DeKalb Business Leader Passes Away After Long Illness // In failing health for the past year or more, although his condition did not become critical until about a month ago, Frank S. Corey, age 72, and a resident of this community the greater part of his life, passed away Saturday afternoon at 3:00 o'clock. Although his condition was known to be serious his death was very sudden and came more suddenly than had been anticipated by his family.
Funeral services for Mr. Corey were held this afternoon from the First Congregational church at 2:00 o'clock, Rev. Glen A. Rowles being in charge. Interment was in the mausoleum at the Fairview cemetery.
Frank Siegel Corey, son of Daniel and Mary Caroline Corey, was born in South Grove Township, DeKalb county, September 27, 1861.
Mr. Corey lived all his life in the county in which he was born, with the exception of twelve years, from the age of six to nineteen which were spent with relatives in Middlefield, Mass.
He was married to Caroline G. Willrett, February 10, 1891 at Malta, and to this union three daughters were born, with their mother, survive their father; Dorothy, of Evanston, Mrs. Howard Bebeau, of Detroit, Mich., and Mrs. Paul W. Arndt, or Marengo.
Came here in 1902 // Mr. and Mrs. Corey lived on the Corey homestead farm in South Grove township until 1902 when they moved to DeKalb, and since then Mr. Corey has been engaged in business here, being a member of the firm of Corey & Evans. He also maintained extensive farm interest and gave much time to these matters.
A year or more ago he underwent an operation at the Glidden hospital which was followed later by two operations at St. Luke's hospital, Chicago. He seemed to recover remarkably well from these illnesses but in the end his strength proved inadequate for complete recuperation.
During the past month, since returning from Chicago, he had failed rapidly and death came as a release from physical disabilities which were insuperable.
Mr. Corey was identified with several fraternal orders of the city and for a number of years was an active member of the Rotary Club. He was interested in every good cause for civic betterment. One of his major loyalties was to the First Congregational church, of which he had been a faithful member and official for many years.
By nature retiring in disposition he was content to let others occupy the limelight yet there never was any questions in the minds of those with whom he labored as to the integrity of his principles and ideals. He was a thorough-going Christian in his home, in his business relationships, in the midst of his civic duties. His death has removed one of the finest citizens from this community.

General Notes: Biography of Morris F. Cole (Updated: June 8, 2012): Mr. Cole was a farmer, spent his life, which was prematurely cut short at the age of forty-nine, in Champaign County, and had gained a competence for himself by his well directed labors.
He was born on a farm in section 24 of Philo Township, November 27, 1867. His death occurred at his home April 8, 1917. His parents, Charles F. and Maria (Pease) Cole, were natives of Massachusetts and were early settlers in Champaign County. His father was a practical farmer, and died in this county January 7, 1899. The mother is still living at Philo. They had eight children: Nellie, deceased; Belle, wife of Millard Porterfield, of Fairmount, Illinois; Hattie, wife of J. N. Black, of Mahomet; Angie, wife of J. T. Black, of Peru, Indiana; Morris P.; Royal G., of Cortland, New York; and Stella and Charles, both of whom died in childhood.
The late Morris F. Cole was reared at home and in the local schools acquired a good education. At the age of twenty-one he went out to Wyoming and put in three years of adventure and exciting experience as a cowboy on the ranches. He returned to Champaign County in the winter of 1892, was married soon afterward, and he and his wife started housekeeping on a rented farm. He handled about 300 acres of rented land and worked it profitably for himself and its owners for about seventeen years. In the meantime he began buying land of his own and at the time of his death had 200 acres in section 25 of Philo Township.
Mr. Cole was married February 2, 1893, to Lydia Thrash, daughter of John and Matilda (Knepper) Thrash. Her parents were born in Fairfield County, Ohio, and moved to Champaign County, Illinois, in 1873, locating on a farm in Philo Township. Her father died March 8, 1917, and thus Mrs. Cole suffered bereavement of her father and husband within a few weeks. Her mother passed away October 4, 1906. Mrs. Cole was one of seven children: Emma, wife of A. J. Pettigrew of Wayne County, Illinois; a daughter who died in infancy; Perry of Tolono, Illinois; the fifth child also died early; William lives in California; Mrs. Cole is the next; and John H. lives at Fort Wayne, Indiana.
Mr. and Mrs. Cole had five children: Hazel Mae, Estella M., Nina B., Charles F. and Gladys L. All the children are still living except Nina.
Mr. Cole was not only a practical and progressive farmer but a man who commanded the confidence of his fellow citizens and was frequently entrusted with offices of responsibility in the community. He served as road commissioner, school director, was active in the Champaign County Agricultural Association and also held the offices of assessor and collector. He was affiliated with the Modern Woodmen of America, the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and the Court of Honor, the Knights of Pythias, and the Loyal Order of Moose. He and his family worshipped in the Presbyterian Church.

Other than his aunt, Elizabeth Colt and her son Caldwell, Samuel Colt's major beneficiary was Master Samuel Caldwell Colt, "son of my late brother John Caldwell Colt," whom even Mrs. Colt regarded favorably.

Death Notes: Obituary - New York Times published Aug 14, 1921: COL. SAMUEL P. COLT DIES OF PARALYSIS //Prominent in Society and Business and an Active Figure in Rhode Island Politics // UNCLE INVENTED THE REVOLVER // Chairman of the Board of the United States Rubber Company Since 1918. // PROVIDENCE, R. I., Aug 13. - Colonel Samuel P. Colt, Chairman of the Board of the United States Rubber Company, died at his Bristol home at 1:10 this afternoon, his death following a severe paralytic shock which he suffered a week ago yesterday.
Colonel Colt had been sinking fast for the past twenty-four hours, and early today it became apparent that the end was near. He was unconscious for several hours before he died. United States Senator Le Baron B. Colt, a brother of Colonel Colt, was at the bedside together with the Colonel's two sons, Roswell C. and Russell G. Colt, and other relatives.
Colonel Samuel Pomeroy Colt came from one of the most distinguished families of this country. Not only was he socially prominent in New England and a figure in the business world, but he had been active in Rhode Island politics. In 1907 he was mentioned as a possibility for the United States Senate, but he withdrew his candidacy. He was a Director or officer in about forty corporations.
Colonel Colt was born in Patterson, N. J. Jan. 120, 1852. His father was Christopher Colt and his mother was Theodora De Wolf Colt, a member of the De Wolf family of Rhode Island. On his father's side he was a descendant of the Colt family of Hartford, Conn. He was named after his uncle Samuel Colt inventor of the Colt's revolver and founder of the Colt's Patent Firm Arms Manufacturing Company of Hartford. His grandfather was Peter Colt of New York.
His mother's family was one of the prominent Colonial families in Rhode Island, and Colonel Colt's summer home in Bristol, R. I. was built in 1810 by his grandfather, General George De Wolf. It was there that he founded the Colt Memorial High School, in memory of his mother. The De Wolfs were extensively engaged in trade with the East and West Indies in the early part of the last century, and they amassed a fortune.
James De Wolf, the Colonel's great-uncle was United States Senator from Rhode Island in 1821. He drove from Bristol to Washington with his own four-in-hand and the coach he used is said to be still preserved. Henry Goodwin of Newport, Attorney General of the state from 1787 to 1789, was a great-uncle. His great-grandfather was Governor William Bradford, the sixth descendant of Governor William Bradford of Plymouth Colony, who crossed on the Mayflower.

Columbia Law School

Colonel Colt received his early education in Hartford and Bristol and following a course in Anthon's Grammar School, New York, he entered Massachusetts Institute of Technology when he was 18 years old. He was graduated at 21. Shortly after graduating Colonel Colt went abroad and for a year, 1873-74, he traveled through England and the Continent. He returned to New York and at once entered the Colombia Law School. He received his degree in the Spring of 1876 and in the same year was admitted to practice in this State. In 1877 he was admitted to the Rhode Island Bar.
Even before he became a lawyer Colonel Colt was interested in politics. Governor Henry Lippitt appointed him an aid on his staff in 1875 and from 1876 to 1879 he served as a member of the General Assembly from Bristol. When his term in the Assembly ended Colonel Colt was made Assistant Attorney General of Rhode Island. He served until 1881, when he became the Republican candidate for State Attorney General and was elected. After retirement to private life in 1885 Colonel Colt again visited Europe.
In 1887 Colonel Colt founded the Industrial Trust Company of Providence.

Entered Rubber Field

While President of the trust company he entered, as a legal advisor and reorganizer, the field of rubber manufacturing, of which he was to become the leading executive. The National Rubber Company of Bristol was in bankruptcy, owing its operatives ten month's wages. He took hold with characteristic vigor and resource, became President and started the plant going again in April 1888. Four years later Joseph Banigan, "the rubber king," formed the United States Rubber Company, which was soon merged with the Colt concern, the Colonial taking the Presidency of the combination, which he retained until 1918, retiring then to the Chairmanship of the Board of Directors.

The list of other corporations in which he was a Director includes more than a score of organizations, most of them directly or indirectly in the rubber industry.
Cornel Colt was married in 1881 to Miss Elizabeth M. Bullock. She survives, as do his two sons, Russell Griswold Colt and Roswell Christopher Colt. Russell was married in 1909 to Ethel Barrymore, the actress.

General Notes: Samuel Pomeroy "Pom" Colt was an industrialist and politician from Rhode Island. A farm owned by Colt was later purchased by the state of Rhode Island, and transformed into the Colt State Park.

An appraisal filed 31 Dec 1924 valued his estate at $5,198,966, of which $4,516,404 was in personal property. His two sons in 1927 were reported they would soon attempt to break their father's Will on behave of their children. His public bequest included $50,000 to Brown University, $1,000 to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, $52,000 to the Town of Bristol and $17,500 to St. Michael's Church of Bristol. The following organizations received $8,750 each; Home for Destitute Children, Home for Aged Women, Benjamin Church Home and the Juniper Hill Cemetery.

Marriage Notes: She claimed adultery in an 1895 petition for divorce. In 1912 they entered a separation agreement that gave her $10,000 per year during her lifetime and use of her residence at 25 Charles Field Street, Providence. At the time they had been living apart for ten years which in Rhode Island constituted grounds for divorce but under the agreement here income would be reduced to $5,000 a year therefore they remained legally married and there was no provision for her in his will.

Stricken ten days ago, after being a semi-invalid for some years, William H. Collier veteran of the Confederate Army and resident of Washington for forty-three years, died early this morning at his home in East Seattle. Mr. Collier was well known among the pioneer of Washington, with whom he had long fraternized, for it was in 1872 that he came to Puget Sound from his native state of Georgia to establish his home.
He was born 68 years ago and served in the Confederate Army and was prominently identified with the local organization of Confederate veterans.

General Notes: He grew up on the ocean traveling the waters with his father beginning at the age of four when his mother died. His school experiences began in Connecticut then New York moving on to Hong Kong, China, and Calcutta. His first marine experience consisted in sailing out of New York and Southern ports to Australia and the Orient. When the Civil War broke out, he returned to the United States and for a time was in the recruiting service for the Confederate army up until August, 1864, when he went to Australia where he worked for the Sydney Morning Herald and the Melbourne Argus. In 1868 he resumed a seafaring life as a marine engineer, traveled the world visiting nearly every important port and helped usher in the conversion to steam. He arrived in San Francisco in 1872, and began running to Victoria on the steamship Prince Alfred. He was mostly in the merchant marine, but for a time was connected with the United States Coast Survey, which work he did not particularly like.

Mr. Collier first came to Seattle in 1859, and subsequently dropped anchor in Puget Sound several times. Being attracted by the future prospects of the city, he finally decided to make the area his permanent home in 1876. For many years he was the chief engineer on nearly all the steamers on the routes out of Seattle. When not on the water he made his home at Bangor, Kitsap County, Washington. In 1901 he retired from the water and went to East Seattle (Mercer Island).

Harvard College, 25th Anniversary Report, 1894-1919: Married Rose Evangeline Weidman at Berea, Ohio, Sept. 1, 1896. Children: Corinne Katherine, born Aug. 19, 1897; Charles Arthur, born Sept. 26, 1899. Occupation: Clerk. Address: (home) 187 Beech St., Berea, Ohio; (business) East Sixty & Rockwell Sts., Cleveland, Ohio.

I ATTENDED Harvard University three years and received the degrees A.B. and A.M., my principal work being English and History. I remember with special delight the class work under Professor Child in Bacon, Chaucer, and Shakespeare. In 1895, I was elected Professor of English Literature in Baldwin University, Berea, Ohio. I was Librarian of this institution for five years, Acting President for two years, and Dean of the College Faculty for four years. I was granted the degree of L1rr. D. by Baldwin University in 1906. During the summer of 1910, my wife and I spent six weeks in England and Scotland, and about the same length of time touring Holland, Belgium, Switzerland, Western Germany, and France. We had the pleasure of seeing the Passion Play at Oberammergau, Bavaria. I have given several lectures on my trip, particularly concerning the Passion Play. In the fall of 1913, I was appointed Professor of History in Baldwin-Wallace College, Berea, Ohio. Was publicity chairman of our college faculty and wrote numerous news articles for the press concerning our college and its work. At present I am not engaged in educational work. I made a vigorous fight for Americanism in Baldwin-Wallace College, and succeeded in forcing the President, after an investigation by a special committee, to resign his office. I then started a movement to emphasize the one-language propaganda and true loyalty to our flag in our community and college. Our college has been largely German and dominated by the so-called German-Americans. Our community is not in hearty accord with several administrative heads and pro-Germanism is not entirely eradicated. I prefer mercantile work to such an environment. I am profitably and pleasantly located with the Standard Oil Company, Cleveland, Ohio.

Death Notes: Obituary - Homestead, Des Moines, Iowa, October 4, 1889: OAKLEY A. NORTON //The sad tidings of the death of Mr. Oakley G. Norton, from inflammation of the bowels, which occurred at his home near Durant, Iowa, on Saturday, September 21, will be a severe shock to the stockmen of the State, He was among the foremost young men of the State, and widely known, not only us a skillful and honorable breeder, but as an active worker in the various associations of stock breeders. At his death he was secretary of the Iowa Draft Horse Breeders' Association, an active member of the Iowa Short-horn Breeders' and the Improved Stock Breeders' Associations. It is seldom, indeed, that a young man of twenty-seven is brought, by his talent and industry, into positions of greater influence in those associations than was conceded to Mr. Norton. The death of any one of the older members of these associations would have been less surprising.
It is expected that the older men must pass away. A prominent feature of recent meetings of the stockmen of Iowa has been the presence of young men, some of them the sons of the older members and the remark has frequently been made, that when these older men passed away the interests of the associations would be in safe hands. This reversal of the ordinary course of nature is one of the sad features of Mr. Norton's death, and singularly paralleled by the like calamity that befell Mr. Moninger less than two years ago, in the death of his two sons. Mr. Norton leaves a wife and two children to mourn his untimely death. His untarnished name will long be held in grateful remembrance by the brotherhood of Iowa stockmen.

Noted events in his life were:

What the doctor ordered: In 1912, the Territory of Arizona became the 48th state to be admitted to the Union. For the previous 19 years, Territorial Veterinarian Dr. James Collier Norton had served under seven governors, overseeing the health of the district's growing cattle industry. With statehood granted, he resigned his government post, establishing a dairy and constructing a home on the historic Hancock homestead, which Norton had purchased at the turn of the century. A visionary, Dr. Norton had anticipated residential development on the southern half of this land. Shortly after purchase, he planted prospective gridded streets with tamarack, ash, and orange trees. With completion of his home on the property's northern edge, a large two story Mission Style structure he called Del Norte House, the scene was set for development.

The Arizona Republic, Phoenix, Sunday July 30, 1961: Norton Home Is Still One Of City's Landmarks. This is another in a series of stories on old Phoenix homes. By MARGARET THOMAS
It was just a small town--8,000 people, city limits from Seventh Street to Seventh Avenue and from Van Buren to Jackson Streets containing 31 saloons--Phoenix 1892.
But even in those days, its bright sun and clear air were attracting new citizens. Among the arrivals that year was Dr. James C. Norton of Ames. Iowa. He left a position as assistant professor at Iowa State College to come West for his health, and in the ensuing years became one of the area's outstanding residents.
Today hundreds of cars daily stream by 2700 N. 15th Avenue, his lovely home that once stood in the center of his 200-acre dairy ranch in the countryside west of town.
Dr. Norton was a son of a prosperous Iowa cattle grower. After finishing first in his class of veterinary medicine, he stayed on as an assistant professor until he moved to Phoenix, opened his practice here. That same year, he married his Iowa sweetheart -- Miss Clara Tufts.
His first office was at 144 W. Washington and he kept his horse and buggy across the street. When he received his appointment as territorial veterinarian in May 1893, they provided 10 cents a mile travel expense for the new official.
Before he retired from this position, he was credited with eradicating the cattle tick in the state. In 1904 he was named national president of the United States Livestock Sanitary Association.
When the doctor arrived in the town, he was dismayed to find that there was no Young Men's Christian Association. Through his efforts, first meetings were held in a rented storeroom. The late William B. Christy, a civil war colonel, was first president. Finally, in 1904, a board was elected and Dr. Norton spearheaded the first YMCA building program fund drive.
His association with the First Presbyterian Church spanned nearly 60 years. For 48 he was chairman of its music committee, served as an elder, and was named a commissioner of the general assembly of the church in 1931.
He also found time to serve as president of the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce in 1916, as president of the Arizona Farm Bureau, and a member of the Phoenix Rotary Club. He aided in efforts to rebuild the Southern Pacific Railroad tracks and managed the project to permanently dike the Salton Sea, whose escape necessitated the rebuilding.
In 1912, he resigned as territorial veterinarian to establish the Norton Dairy. The spacious home was built shortly after for his wife, sons James, Oakley and the late Victor, and his late daughter Marietta.
Mrs. W. W. Pickrell recalls living with the Norton family during 1916 and 1917 when she and Marietta attended college in Tempe. In those days, the two younger boys helped with the dairy and the oldest was a student at Occidental College in Los Angeles.

Death Notes: Obituary - Hartford Courant published 16 Jan 1926: JOHN M. HOLCOMBE, INSURANCE LEADER, and DIES IN 78TH YEAR // Chairman of Board f Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance Company was at His Desk Eleven Days Ago. // STARTED ONE BANK, ACTIVE IN OTHERS // Originated Hartford Health Board, Served on City Plan Commission and Board of Finance. // John Marshall Holcombe, chairman of the board of directors of the Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance Company, and for over twenty years, until February 29, 1924, president of the company, died yesterday morning at 10 o'clock at his home, No. 79 Spring street, in his 78th year. He had been in ill health for several months, but did not give up visiting the office of his company on Elm street until the fifth day of this year. Mr. Holcombe was one of the most active life insurance officials in the country, and was well-known throughout the life insurance world, being a man of commanding position and influence in the field of insurance and finance, in Yale alumni gatherings, and in the civic life of Hartford, where he was born.
Of Colonial Ancestry // Mr. Holcombe was the son of James Huggins and Emily Merrill (Johnson) Holcombe and was born here June 8, 1848. His first American ancestor was Thomas Holcombe who came from England about 1630 and settled in Dorchester, Mass., subsequently coming down to what is now Windsor in 1635. From that ancestry he could trace his descent through eight direct antecedents, Phineas Holcomb and his wife Nancy Smith Huggins, being his grandparents.
After attending the local grammar school he was graduated from the Hartford Public High School, Class of 1865, some of his classmates being the late Arthur K. Brocklesby and William C. Brocklesby, Henry W. Raymond, Ezra Brooks, William L. Bennett, Frank R. Childs, Luther C. Glazier, Professor Bernadotte Perrin and Professor Henry T. Terry, of Tokyo, Japan. He entered Yale University with the class of 1869 and upon graduation he studied law and entered the employ of the Connecticut General Life Insurance Company in the actuarial department, from whence he went to the state insurance department as actuary in 1871 and remained until 1874. In the latter year he was elected secretary of the Phoenix Mutual Like Insurance Company (before mutalization), was prompted to secretary in 1875 and vice-president in 1889 and became president of the company in 1904. He was very active in the reorganization in 1889 of the company.
Promoted Yale Course // Mr. Holcombe was one of the promoters of the insurance course at Yale University, and lectured there on insurance and kindred topics for several years and also on the same subject at the Western Reserve University and at life insurance gathering in various parts of the country. A collection of his lectures was published by him in 1908, entitled, "Addresses on Life Insurance."
Due to his experience in the science of life insurance, Mr. Holcombe was frequently consulted by state officials and legislators, a notable instance of this being the insurance investigation in New York State in 1905 and 1906, and during the codification and passage of legislation emanating as a result of this codification. He was one of the originators of the Life Insurance Presidents' Association.
Serviced in City Offices // A republican in politics, Mr. Holcomb served in the common council from the old Second Ward in 1882 and 1883, the latter year as president of the board. He was president of the board of alderman in 1885, and the originator of the Hartford board of health, upon which body he served as commissioner. As a member of the city plan commission and board of finance, Mr. Holcomb also served the city.
Active in Banks // He was one of the organizers of the old Fidelity Trust Co., of which he was a director and for some years, president. He was also a director of the Phoenix National Bank and the United States Security Trust Co. At the time of the merger of the two trust companies, he resigned his directorship in the Phoenix Bank, due to the federal law restrictions. He was one of the charter members of the Actuarial Society of America; president and trustee of the Mechanics Savings Bank; the Hartford Municipal Society and the Insurance Institute. He has been treasurer of the Yale loan fund, and was a director of the Phoenix (Fire) Insurance Company and the Peck, Stow & Wilcox Company.
He was president of the Hartford Meadows Development Commission, and also a director of the Harford Retreat, of which he had been treasurer for many years.
Mr. Holcombe was a member of the Sons of the American Revolution, the Society of the War of 1812, the Society of Colonial Wars, the Wolf's Friend Society of Yale, The University Club of New York, the Hartford Club and the Hartford Golf Club. He was a member of the Center Church.
Had Two Honorary Degrees // Mr. Holcombe was the recipient of two honorary degrees, that of M. A. being conferred upon him by Yale in 1909 and that of Ll. D. by Trinity College in 1920. He was married, January 29, 1873 to Emily Seymour Goodwin, the daughter of Edwin Olmsted Goodwin of Brooklyn, N. Y., and they had three children; Harold Goodwin Holcombe, in the insurance business in this city, Miss Emily Marguerite Holcombe, and John Marshall Holcombe, jr., manager of the Life Insurance Sales Research Bureau of this city. There are also nine grandchildren. Mrs. Holcombe died March 28, 1923, and is buried in the Ancient Burying Ground, in the rear of the Center Church, on Gold street, in the work of restoration of which she was active. Two years previous to Mrs. Holcomb's death they celebrated their golden wedding at their home in this city.
Funeral Monday // Mr. Holcombe's funeral will be held at his home, No. 9 Spring street, at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon. Rev. Warren S. Archibald of the South Congregations Church and Rev. Quincy Blakely of Farmington, officiating. The body will be place in the vault at Spring Grove Cemetery, and will later be buried in the Ancient Cemetery. Authority for the burial of Mr. and Mrs. Holcombe in this cemetery was granted by special act of the common council in June 1923, this vote authorizing the park commissioners to permit not more than two burials there.
The honorary bearers will be President Archibald A. Welch presenting the Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance Company, President Edward Milligan of the Phoenix (Fire) Insurance Company; President Robert B. Newell of the United States Security Trust Company; Treasurer Wickliffe S. Buckley of the Mechanics Savings Bank; former Governor Marcus H. Holcombe; Dr. Ernest A. Wells; President Leon P.

General Notes: Biography: He was president of the Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance Company and of the Fidelity Company, both of Hartford, lecturer at Yale University, bank director, and a prominent factor in the city government of Hartford, was born in that city on the eighth of June, 1848. The Holcombe ancestry is very interesting and distinguished and embraces men of note in every walk of life. John Marshall Holcombe is a descendant of Thomas Holcombe, who settled in Dorchester, Massachusetts, in 1635 and was later a settler and deputy in Windsor, Connecticut. He is in the same line of descent as Amasa Holcombe, the distinguished scientist, and Rev. Frederick Holcombe, the eminent divine and founder of Trinity College. Among Mr. Holcombe's ancestors were three Revolutionary soldiers and many other men prominent in early American history, including John Webster, one of the early Colonial governors of Connecticut; William Phelps, magistrate and deputy to the General Court for many sessions; Edward Griswold, also magistrate and deputy for thirty-five years; Captain Joseph Wadsworth, who hid the charter in the oak, and Gen. Nathan Johnson, an officer in the War of 1812, who was also State senator. These and many other ancestors came from England and were early settlers and proprietors in Colonial and later times. Mr. Holcombe's father was James Huggins Holcombe, a lawyer, who was clerk of court and of the House and Senate of Connecticut. He was characterized by the usual New England traits of rectitude, fidelity, and thrift. Mr. Holcombe's mother was Emily Merrill Holcombe.
The city of Hartford has been Mr. Holcombe's home and the center of all his interests from his earliest days and he is now living there in the house in which he was born. He attended the Hartford Public High School and then entered Yale College, where he received his B.A. degree in 1869 and his M.A. degree three years later. In 1869 he began his career as an insurance man in the office of the actuary of the Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company, and in 1871 he became actuary of the insurance department of the State of Connecticut, which office he held for three years. In 1874 he became assistant secretary of the Phoenix Mutual Life, the following year he was made secretary and, in 1889, vice-president of the company of which he is now the president. He is also president of the Fidelity Company, a director in the American National Bank, in the Connecticut Fire Insurance Company, in the Mechanics Savings Bank of Hartford, and in the National Surety Company of New York. In addition to these interests he has been a lecturer at Yale University, in the insurance course. This last named position shows, even more than his many other business positions, what a capable authority he is on the important subject of life insurance. He has also written valuable articles on life insurance for the North American Review.
In the municipal affairs of Hartford Mr. Holcombe has taken as important a part as he has in the business life. He brought about the organization of the board of health and served on it for many years. In 1883 he was a member of the common council and, in 1885, he was a member of the board of aldermen, and he was president of both of these branches of city government. He is a director of the board of trade and of the Retreat for the Insane. In politics he is a Republican and in creed a Congregationalist, being a member of the Center Church of Hartford. He has been president of the Yale Alumni Association of Hartford, is a member of the University Club of New York, of the Sons of the American Revolution, of the Society of Colonial Wars, the Society of the War of 1812, of the Hartford Club, and a fellow of the Actuarial Society of America, another evidence of his high place among the life insurance "captains" of to-day. Mrs. Holcombe was Emily Seymour Goodwin, whom he married January 29th, 1873, and by whom he has had three children, a daughter and two sons: Harold Goodwin Holcombe, Emily Marguerite Holcombe, and John Marshall Holcombe, Jr. Mrs. Holcombe is as much a leader in social, intellectual, and patriotic circles as her husband is in business and public affairs.

Death Notes: Obituary - William Henry Ely was taken ill on Saturday, May 22nd, and passed away early on the morning of Wednesday, May 26th, 1909, at his home in New Haven.
He was born in Hartford, November 27th, 1856, where he received his early education. He was graduated from the Hartford High School in 1873, and from Amherst College in the class of 1877. He studied law with Briscoe & Maltbie of Hartford, and was admitted to the bar in that city May 27th, 1879.
Commencing the practice of his profession in Winsted, Connecticut, Mr. Ely continued there until June 28th, 1884, when he moved to New Haven and formed a partnership with William C. and William S. Case, under the name of Case, Ely, Case. This firm was succeeded by the firm of Case, Ely & Webb. Upon the death of William C. Case, this firm was succeeded by that of Ely & Barclay; and on July 1st, 1907, the partnership of Ely, Zacher & Ely, of which he was senior member at the time of his death, the junior member being his only son and child, William Brewster Ely, was formed.
After his admission to the bar, Mr. Ely's lot was not an easy one. With no one to create business for him, his hard work and his success alone brought clients to him. His cases were carefully and well prepared. In reading the law applicable to his cases, the underlying principles and questions were studied and understood, so that the beginning of a trial found him master of the facts and law. It was a delight to hear him argue questions of law. Involved points became so plain that a layman could understand them. He was an aggressive, but a fair, fighter. To be associated with Mr. Ely in a case was to have the aid of a lawyer thoroughly equipped, and one who knew how to use the equipment. To have him as an opponent was to know that no trickery would be used, but every possible legitimate aid to win the fight would be employed. As a cross-examiner Mr. Ely had few equals, and certainly no superiors, among his associates at the New Haven County bar. There was no noise; no splurge. He achieved his object. The testimony sought was given, before the witness, yes, at times even before his adversary, realized it. Gradually his great ability as a lawyer and his rugged honesty were recognized and became generally known, and he was retained in very many of the most important cases brought in the county. He was about to reap what he had sown, to realize the financial reward for his labor, when he was so suddenly and unexpectedly called away.
Mr. Ely hated, and never lost an opportunity to denounce, all sham and hypocrisy. At no time and at no place did he fail to expose them. He was also keen to detect them. Necessarily he made some enemies, but this did not deter him, and necessarily this quality made men respect him and made loyal friends of those who shared this hatred with him.
Mr. Ely had sociable qualities. He loved to entertain and be entertained. Surrounded by those with whom he loved to be, he was the life of the gathering, and was indeed "a good fellow" among good fellows.
