Tribute by Prof. Joseph L. Daniels, of Olivet College, Michigan, Dec. 2, 1897, Mr. Philo Parsons was born at Scipio, N. Y., February 6, 1817. His early years were spent in Gouverneur, Homer, and Perry, N, Y. At the latter place, he entered into busi- ness with his father under the firm name of L. B. Parsons & Son. And he also married there, in 1843, Miss Ann Eliza Barnum. Their long and happy married life was ter- minated in 1893 by the death of Mrs. Parsons, Mr. Parsons following her three years later, dying at Winchenden, Mass., January 20, 1896. Eight children were bom to them, of whom seven survived their parents. In 1844, Mr. Parsons removed to Detroit, Mich., and entered upon the grocery business under the firm of Parsons & James. A few years later he established a private bank. In 1861, when the Government created the national banking system as an aid in carrying on the war, Mr. Parsons was the leader in organizing the First National Bank of Detroit, was its first president, and for many years one of its directors. He did much to promote the commercial prosperity of Detroit. He entered heartily into the project for bringing the Wabash Railroad into the city, was an active member of the Board of Trade, and for a time its president. For many years he 154 represented his own city in the National Board of Trade and was honored repeatedly as one of its vice-presidents. His discussions in these national conventions show a wealth of information, a candor and breadth of view, and a dis- crimination akin to prophecy. He was an ardent lover of his own city and State, and yet on one occasion explained his vote, apparently against their interests, as " for the greatest good of the greatest number." Mr. Parsons was active in the municipal affairs of Detroit, and for a time a member of its council. The State, too, more than once conferred upon him distinguished honors and trusts; notably as commissioner to the Yorktown Cen- tennial, and as chairman of the Commission to secure the statue of General Lewis Cass to be placed in the Capitol at Washington. He brought to this work all the enthusiasm of a lifelong friendship and a patriotic pride for the honor of his beloved State. The statue, almost vocal with life, crowned his many months of toil and effort and was one of the great joys of his life. He honored himself in honoring the State. Yet political offices and honors he did not seek. He even declined to consider them when they merely appealed to his personal ambition. Too much Puritanic and revolu- tionary blood flowed in his veins to ever regard public offices as anything but a sacred trust, a patriotic service. Mr. Parsons had a lively interest in agriculture, was an active member of the State Agricultural Society of Michigan, and served most acceptably as its president. He was an enthusiast in horticulture and fruit culture, and found relaxation and pleasure in personal work in his own garden, one of the finest in Detroit. He was a royal entertainer, and was never happier than when sharing the hospitality of his elegant home with his friends. His benevolence was a matter of principle. He took special delight in aiding young men who were preparing for the work of Christian ministrjr. He was one of the largest and most systematic givers to the cause of missions. He was an enthusiastic believer in education. While several institutions were looking with eager eyes toward the Ram Library at Heidelberg, Mr. Parsons bought and donated it in its entirety to the Michigan State University. In keeping with his father's spirit, he was espe- cially devoted to the Christian College. He early became interested in Olivet College, Michigan. For thirty-six years he was a member of its board of trustees. He built his name into the history and even the very walls of the col- lege. Parsons Hall and the Parsons Professorship are honored words today. Not only his munificent gifts, but his wise counsels and his lifelong devotion to the work at Olivet are gratefully remembered. And no less were these deeds of benevolence a grateful remembrance to Mr. Par- sons himself. They were his glory and joy in his later years of illness. He found a rich reward in the satisfaction of building himself into institutions of education and religion. Olivet College grew dearer to him. His home church, the First Congregational Church of Detroit, grew dearer. His beloved pastor and his intimate friends at Olivet received frequent letters full of gratitude and joy for what he had been permitted to do, and full of trust and hope in prospect of a blessed immortality. In this spirit, he entered into rest. His death was literally a sleep. He slept on earth to awake in Heaven.

Middlesex was formed in 1796 while still part of Ontario County, New York. Middlesex was known as "Augusta" until 1808, when the name was changed to "Middlesex" to avoid confusion with another location named Augusta. When Yates County was formed in 1823, Middlesex became part of the new county.
The Town of Potter was formed from part of Middlesex in 1832, and more of Middlesex was added to Potter in 1856.

Ironwood Daily Globe, Thursday, July 5, 1979, page 2:

Man Drowns In Imp Lake
WATERSMEET ? An elderly man drowned in Imp Lake about 10 miles east of here Tuesday afternoon despite the efforts of his teenaged grandsons to rescue him. The body of Charles D. Saxon, 63, Paulding, was recovered by Michigan State Police divers around 9 a.m. Wednesday in about 45 feet of water. State Police, Gogebic County Sheriff's deputies and Watersmeet Police, as well as a number of volunteers searched for the man Tuesday after the 1 p.m. report to no avail.
Saxon was paddling a 17-foot fiberglass canoe on the lake when he overturned the craft, state police said. His grandson, Russell Saxon, 14, and Charles Saxon, 12, both of Trout Creek, were nearby and tried to save him. He was said to be a good swimmer but had had heart surgery in January, state troopers said. Saxon was not wearing a life jacket, Gogebic County Sheriff Donald Pezetti said.
His body was recovered about 40 feet from the north shore of the lake, which is just south of U.S. 2. The Tuesday search ran from 2 to 9 p.m.

Asa M. Bunn
ASA M. BUNN is one of the best known civil engineers of the state of Kansas and he has been engaged in some of the most important construction work carried on in this section, and the son of one of the state's stalwart pioneers. Mr. Bunn can look back over a busy, extremely varied and thoroughly interesting career, and one of constantly increasing usefulness.
The subject was born in Bloomington, Illinois, February 2, 1848, and is a son of David M. and Hanna (Hendricks) Bunn, both natives of the state of Pennsylvania. The paternal grandparents Henry and Jane (Freelenheisen) Bunn, were also natives of the Keystone State, as were those on the maternal side - John and Sarah Hendricks. Mr. Bunn's parents came to McLean county, Illinois, with their parents when children and there married and homesteaded one hundred and sixty acres of prairie land. The father improved the same and added to it from time to time, and in 1868 he traded two thousand, eight hundred acres of swamp land for four thousand acres in Franklin County, Kansas, the chiefest treasures of the latter being three elm trees. Henry Bunn removed to Kansas and located upon this great tract of raw land and there raised the first Durham cattle in Kansas, having brought some of this famous breed with him when he came. He was a man of great executive ability and accomplished the remarkable achievement of putting over four thousand acres under cultivation. He died on the farm which had been the scene of his successful endeavors. The subject's father married three times, and he is the third and youngest in order of birth of the children of the first wife, whose maiden name was Hanna Hendricks, as has been previously mentioned. The second wife, Ellen Ritter, became the mother of one child; and the third wife, Elizabeth Horr, reared six sons and daughters. Mr. Bunn has one sister, Mary, now Mrs. John Micheal, a resident of Bloomington, Illinois. The mother died when Mr. Bunn was an infant and he lived at the home of an uncle and aunt until the age of twelve years, when he went back to the home roof and remained there until he became twenty-two years of age.
Filled with the spirit of youthful love of adventure, Mr. Bunn secured work in railroading, which ever seems to appeal to the young. From Colonel A. C. Titus he secured a position as engineer with the Kansas City & Burlington Railroad, of which colonel A. C. Titus was then superintendent, and from 1872 until April 1, 1876, he ran the train conveying the transit men. In 1878 he ran the train of the Adams Express Company from Ottawa, Kansas, to Burlington, Kansas. In 1881, he abandoned railroading and made a radical change, buying a saw mill near Garnett, Anderson county, Kansas. He conducted this mill for three years and then sold out and removed to a farm his father gave him in Franklin county, Kansas. Being still somewhat dissatisfied and having his ambitions set upon higher positions, the young man sold his farm and went to Ottawa, Kansas, where he studied civil engineering and became exceedingly proficient in this science. In 1887 and 1888 he put in two and one half miles of sewerage in Ottawa, and after finishing that important work, he removed to Pittsburg, Kansas, where he superintended the installation of five miles of sewerage. He next removed, in 1892, to Girard, Crawford county, where he was engaged in the same line of work and he then located for a time in Pittsburg, Kansas, where he engaged in real estate transactions. About this time Mr. Bunn entered upon an important work in the opening of coal mines in Illinois, and he remained there for six months, bringing in that time the mines to a state of successful operation. He subsequently went to Canyon City, Colorado, and took charge of the coal mines belonging to the Atchinson, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad in Colorado. Over a year later he came back to Illinois, and after staying there for two months, went to Lansing, Kansas, where for a few months he held the position of superintendent of the coal mines of that place. A few months later he went to Topeka, Kansas, and in 1902, he went back to Illinois again. In the meantime he had also spent sometime in the Indian Territory engaged in the opening of coal mines, in which department his engineering skill has ever proved of the highest order.
In 1902, Mr. Bunn became identified with Kansas City, Kansas, assuming the office of civil engineer with the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific railroad, and in the month of January of the ensuing year he began upon construction work. He was given charge of the division at Leeton, Johnson county, Missouri, and did not finish the work there before 1906. In that year he leased certain coal fields in Missouri, and engaged in the work of developing coal mines. His next change took him to St. Joe, Missouri, and he traversed the states of Missouri and Iowa, locating two railroads and at the termination of this great civil engineering work, in 1909, he became engineer in charge of the construction of the Kaw Valley drainage district, this being the largest work of its kind ever accomplished. In fact, Mr. Bunn's experience, executive ability, tireless energy, engineering skill and genius in the broad combination and concentration of applicable forces render his services of great and unusual value.
Mr. Bunn was happily married when in June, 1877, Miss Anna Harlan, a native of Ohio, and daughter of Chauney and Nancy (Freede) Harlan, became his wife.

rdrw30rdrsrdrw30rdrsrdrw30rdrsrdrw30rdrs ntblCLARE HELEN PRYCE DOUGHERTY, a former member of St. Joseph Parish, died on Sunday, 19 June. Born on 24 February 1928, she was 83 years of age. Clare is the youngest of the three daughters of the late Thomas and Helen (Hoar) Pryce. Her sisters are: Mary E. Pryce Geyer (deceased) and Emma Pryce Keiser. On 04 March 1928, Clare was baptized in St. Joseph Church by Fr. Edward H. Allen. On 03 July 1948, she was married to Thomas J. Dougherty IV, in Immaculate Conception Church, Philadelphia, in the presence of Fr. William H. Herrity. [Mr. Dougherty is a native of Mahanoy Plane and a 1942 graduate of Gilberton High School.] Thomas and Clare have two children: Thomas J. Dougherty V and Kathleen C. Dougherty. They have three grandchildren: Patricia Dougherty Leinmiller; Thomas J. Dougherty VI; Kristina Dougherty. They have five great-grandchildren: Alexis Wichert; Emma Clare Leinmiller; Maks Christian Leinmiller; Molly Dougherty; Carly Dougherty. The Mass of Christian Burial was celebrated in St. Joseph Church on Thursday, 23 June, at 11:00 am. On Wednesday evening and on Thursday morning, prior to the Mass, there was a viewing in the McDonald Funeral Home. The interment took place in the parish cemetery in Fountain Springs. Eternal rest grant unto Clare, O Lord, and let the perpetual light shine upon her. May her soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.rdrw30rdrsrdrw30rdrsrdrw30rdrsrdrw30rdrs ntbl Postscript to the above: Mr. Dougherty (husband of Clare) told me an interesting anecdote as we conversed at the luncheon after the funeral. In 1943, when he was an 18-year-old Marine, he was assigned to be part of a security detail for a visit to the Washington Navy Yard by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Security was especially tight because of the War and consequent threats on the President's life. Private Dougherty was one of several Marines who were holding rifles, ready to defend the President against any would-be assassin! He was up close to the President's car as it pulled up and a wheel chair taken out. Then he saw FDR come out and take his seat in the chair. FDR looked at Tom and said, "When I see young men like you on duty, I know that the country is safe!" That's the end of the story, as far as I know. I thought it was worth sharing. It sure impressed me! The last seven and a half years of FDR's presidency were the first seven and a half years of my life. I remember very well the awe in which he was held by my elders. I don't think there has ever been a president like him, at least as far as the "awe quality" is concerned. So, while I certainly can't claim to have had any personal encounter with FDR, now, at least, I can say that I had lunch with someone who did. That has to be worth something!
