A LOSS TO BURLINGTON.
Death of Albert c. Spaulding, One Of
the City's Substantial Business Men.


the City's Substantial Business Men.
In the death of Albert c. Spaulding
Burlington loses one of her substantial
business men and man who probably
had as wide an acquaintance and as many
firm friends as any man in the city. Mr.
Spaulding died at 7'30 Friday night after
an illness of several weeks, his first at
tack being pneumonia, which later de-
veloped into typhoid and from which he
was unable to rally His condition during
the Illness has been varied. his rallying
to fill his friends with hope and for
few days, until few hours before
his death, there had been such a marked
Improvement in his condition that his re-
covery was regarded as probable. His
brother Ernest j. Spaulding, was in Eu-
rope but upon receiving word that Mr..
Spauldng was seriously i'll, sailed for
home on the first steamer and arrived in
Burlington before his brothers death.
MIR. Spauldng was born in Jericho, June
10, 1880. and was therefore SO years old.
He was the eldest son of Cyrus Nj. and
Abbe Gould Spaulding. During his early
manhood he was employed in Massachu-
sets but later returned to Jericho and
became a partner with his father in the
wholesale produce business, which proved
to be a very successful venture. Later
the senior members of the firm retired
and came to Burlington and Mr.. Spauld-
ing continued the business alone. While
resident of Jericho Mr.. Spaulding was one
Of the substantial citizens Of the town
and secured and retained the good will
and respect of all with whom he came
in contact
About IS years ago Mr.. Spaulding came
to Burlington and with Mr. John Van
Sicklen formed the firm of Van Sicklen
n Spaulding. taking the business of the
Van Sicklen. Seymour & Co. On
the death of Mr.. John Van Sicklen
in 1888 the firm of Spauldng, Kim
ball & Co. was formed. The business
of this firm has been carried on most
successfully throughout the State and is
widely known as n wholesale house of
honest and upright dealing. Mr.. Spauld-
ing early became identified with some
of the leading business and financial in
situations of the city and at the time Of
his death was vice-president of the Bald
win Refrigerator Co.; treasurer of the
Champlain Transportation CO.; president
of the Consumers Ice Co.; director of
the Howard National ank; and director
of Rutland railroad.
Aside from being prominent in business
lines. Mr.. Spaulding was we'll known in
social circles, being a member of the
Algonquin and Ethan Allen clubs. 1t was
in politics that Mr.. Spaulding was es-
pecially known. Although urged to ac-
cept the nomination of every city office
within the gift of the Republican party
in Burlington. Mr.. Spaulding constantly
declined to accept and put in all his cf-
| forts to secure the election Of some one
else who would accept. Mr.. Spaulding Is
! survived by a wife and one son, Frank
| his mother Mrs c. NJ Spaulding. one
sister. Mrs. II. f. Percival, and a brother
Ernest j. Spauding.

VALUABLE ADDITION TO THE MI
scum OF THE UNIVERSITY.

To the Editor of The Free Press.
DR.. Clayton G. Andrews of Water
bury, class of 1895. has given to the
museum OF the University OF Vermont
an exceedingly interesting and valua-
BILE specimen of Indian pottery. 1t is
one of the finest jars, as well as one
of the largest ever found in New Eng
land.
This jar was found in a sort Of cave
in Bolton Falls by Mr.. j. w. Thompson
and was purchased by DR. Andrews. So
far as know, the only other New Eng
land jar at all approaching this in
elaborateness of form and ornamental
ton is the famous Colchester jar in the
| museum which was figured In Thomp-
sons Vermont first. though rather poor
ly and since in several scientific per-
iodicals and Harpers Magazine.
Although comparatively common in
| the Mississippi valley and the west,
| complete specimens of Indian pottery
are extremely rare in the east and
probably not more than half dozen
whole jars which were found in New
England are now in existence any
where. With this last addition our
| own museum has three, and the three
| finest.
This jar is 10 inches high. nine inches
| across the rim, which is six sided and
highly decorated on the fiat sides with
lines, circles and notches.
The lower and larger portion Is
globular and Is ~ inches in diameter,
When quite full, the Jar holds 10
| quarts.
1t Is most likely the work OF some
| Algonquin squaw who lived some two
hundred years ago, or perhaps more.
1t cannot we'll be less than two hum
bred years old for the Indians ceased
making pottery as soon as they could
| supply themselves with brass or iron
kettles from the early traders and these
metal kettles were very common more
than two hundred years ago.
| The collection of Vermont pottery In
our museum 10 not very large but 1t
is | think, safe to say that II Is by far
the best collection of New England pot
terry there is and one that can never
be duplicated,
From what has been said above 1t
| will readily appear how greatly the
museum is Indebted to DR.. Andrews for
his generous gift u. III. +.
