PROF. 5aumgardt's Lecture.
Dwight Lyman Sanderson, one Of Hins-
dale's most influential and respected cit
liens, died at his home on Brattleboro
street early Monday morning, aged "a
years Mr.. sanderson had suffered much
from rheumatism, but the cause of his
death seemed to be general breaking
up his last sickness being Of about three
weeks duration. Mr.. Sanderson was
born in Chesterfield, May 81, 1922. In
1S45 he married Miss Harriet M Bolt
wood of Windsor, VT, where he was then
living and serving as an officer in the
state prison. One daughter, Harriet, was
born of this union. She became an at
tractive young lady and a successful
school teacher. Her death took place in
Hinsdale many years ago. In 1S49 Mr.
| Sanderson married Elvira Stearns, second
daughter of the late John Stearns Of
| Hinsdale. The couple went to Chester
field Factory, now Spofford where for
| three years Mr. Sanderson was one Of
| the proprietors of a country store. After
living in Vermont for a time in 1862 the
| family moved to Hinsdale, and have lived
| here ever since.
/ oduueIbOn business naQ been
largely a live stock dealer, buying in the
West and bringing his purchases to the
| Eastern markets. He was connected with
the sales stables in Brattleboro and in
| Worcester, Mass. His Judgment on
horses and cattle was considered the
best He was genial and companonable,
a man Of ready wit, as well as sound
common sense.
In political belief Mr. Sanderson was a
| staunch Democrat and was never at a
loss to give reason for his faith. Until
within the last few weeks he had con-
tinued in activity and as recently as the
past summer went to Illinois buying
horses. Even since being confined to
his bed, he contemplated other trips to
be taken in the near future. He will be
| greatly missed, not only in his own town
but in many sections of the country
where he had become well known. He
was everywhere highly respected.
Besides his wife, Mr.. Sanderson is sur
vived by four sons, Leonard w, of this
village. John S. and Charles c., of Cln-
ton, Mass. and Edward B.. OF Water
bury, Conn, and one daughter, Mrs Will
liam Towne Of Clinton, Mass. There are
also eight grandchildren and three great
grandchildren. The funeral was held
Wednesday afternoon at his late home

81 years. She Is survived by one daug-
ter, Mrs. j. G. Rice, who left her home
in the West to come here and care for
her parents before the death OF her ia
Their, and she has remained with her
mother since. Mrs. Estey was a member
