Compliments for a BrattIeboro Singer
E. II. Miller, the representative from
Dummerston, who has been the sooist In
the Brattleboro Unitarian church several
years, sang at sacred concert in Bethany
church in Montpelier Sunday. The reus
says: "Mr. Miller sang a number of Sc
lections and it was only by an effort that
the audience constrained itself from burst
ing into applause at the conclusion of each
selection. His voice is of great power and
sweetness and he has wonderful range
the notes OF his entire register being of un-
varying sweetness. Although the Interior
of the editice was too cool for the comfort
OF the audience, those comprising it would
have gladly remained longer had Mr.. Mil
Ter continued to sing"
The Montpelier Record says: "Althouph
the notice was brief, the auditorium of
Bethany church was well filled last evening
by o'clock when K. II. Miller, the mem.
Der from Dummerston, assisted by the
choir entertained the audience for an hour
with his rich baritone voice in sacred Sc
lections. Mr.. Miller, always pleasing, was
at his best last evening and was the subject
OF much favorable comment"
The Montpelier Journal said of Mr..
Miller's singing at the Fish and Game
league banquet Tuesday evening: "Rep-
resentative Miller of Dummerston then
sang ballad, king of the Forest with
such beauty and thorough mastery of a
magnificent voice that the hundreds went
wild over it.. This called for another wild
outburst OF enthusiastic admiration. Mr..
Miller has magnificent voice, finely train
ed, and whenever he exercises his art is an
event."
