John Elden

John Elden, originally from Maine, was a wounded civil war veteran, early Flagstaff pioneer, and Alaska pioneer who settled for a while at the base of Mount Elden, just north of Flagstaff, Arizona, and is the individual in which Mount Eldon takes its name from.
John Elden settled at the base of what is today Mount Elden north of Flagstaff with his wife in February,1877. They built their log home at what is the today the base of Mt Elden from the abundant Ponderosa pines in the area using only hand tools and horses. The Elden's chose this home-site because a small spring nearby provided water for both domestic use and for their sheep and cattle.National Forest John Eldon Home-site Historical Marker Today this spring is known as Elden Spring. This location is also sheltered from cold north winds and warmed by the winter sun. Their three children, Helena, Eloise Felicia, and John were born at the settlement. The John Eldon home-site sits just off the Pipeline Trail that runs along the side of Mt Elden, and is identified with a historical marker.

===The murder of little John Elden===
According to a story by Helena Elden Lindsey, the oldest daughter of John Elden, her six year old brother John is buried in a grave near the settlement. Legend has it that one day in 1887, a teamster named Bob Roberts attempted to water his head of mules at the nearby spring. Mrs. Elden confronted Roberts and insisted he water his stock elsewhere. Roberts was infuriated as he left ans fired a random shot, which struck and killed little John Elden. A citizens' posse was formed to track down and catch Roberts, who led them on a long hard chase, eventually leading to the discovery of Robert's body was found in a wash. It has never been determined who killed Roberts. John Elden's then left Flagstaff and moved his family to California.National Forest Little John Elden Grave-site Historical Marker
A wooden cross and picket fence originally marked the little John Elden grave, but has since been enclosed with stones and a cross made of pipe. The little John Elden grave is located adjacent to the John Elden home-site and is marked with a historical marker. The grave-site is located at 35.227270857419114, -111.60131051824222Google Maps
Although the story of the little Jon Elden murder is well documented at the historical grave site and in historical literature, no obituary records of either little John Elden or Bob Roberts were ever found. No deaths were recorded in the mid 1880's at the Coconino County courthouse that matched the circumstances of little John Elden or Bob Robert's deaths, and the Coconino Sun did not document the murder. Some believe the story to be pure fiction.

== Life ==
He was educated at East Ham Grammar School, London, and King’s College, Cambridge. He has an M.A. from Cambridge University (1965) and a Ph.D. from Cornell University (1974).

He became Professor Emeritus on retirement from the University in 1999.Personal website
 
In 1981 he proposed a new relative dating of Seneca’s dramas, based on the structure of the iambic trimeter.“Sense-Pauses and Relative Dating in Seneca, Sophocles and Shakespeare”, American Journal of Philology 102 (1981) 289-307. This was followed by an detailed edition with commentary of Seneca’s Hercules, and simultaneously by a study of the anapaestic verses in the dramas (both 1987). Later came an edition of all the dramas in the bilingual Loeb Classical Library, accompanied by a separate textual commentary (both 2004). He has also written on the construction of selfhood “Construction of the Self in Senecan Drama”, Mnemosyne IV.55 (2002) 18-40 (with S.

Fitch is also interested in the poetry of knowledge, particularly that of Lucretius and Vergil. In 2018 he published The Poetry of Knowledge and the ‘Two Cultures’, which examines the interrelationship of knowledge and poetry across a wide range of literature from antiquity to the twenty-first century, and argues for their compatibility.
He has also published an illustrated translation of Palladius’ Opus Agriculturae, accompanied by discussions of textual issues in that work.“Textual Notes on Palladius Opus Agriculturae,” Harvard Studies in Classical Philology 107 (2013) 385-408.
