lin Memoriam Eunice Richardson After a long, serious illness, Miss Eunice Richardson of the Faculty passed away November 12, 1940. Practically all of Miss Richardson's life was spent in Albion where she attended school, graduating in 1911. After finishing at Brockport Normal, she accepted a position at New York Mills. During the First World War, she Hdid her bit in Washington until she returned to Albion, where as a Fifth and Sixth Grade teacher, she taught for over twenty years. Because of her sturdy character and high principle, Miss Richardson personified the Ideal Teacher who gave completely of herself to her pupils and her position. Al- though her ill health was apparent to all, she never used her sickness as an excuse for neglecting her work. She toiled far beyond her strength and resigned only when she could carry on no longer. Truly, Miss Richardson was a lovely person and a real soldier. Lillian A. Achilles The community was shocked, April 17, to hear of the sudden death of Miss Lillian A. Achilles as she was on her way to work. Fragile and delicate, Miss Achilles had been in poor health, nevertheless, she had been able to attend her duties at the Library. Born in Ridgeway, 1871, Miss Lillian A. Achilles of three score and ten years had come to symbolize all that is good and beautiful in our midst. Helping to found, cradling, nuturing it, she gave to Swan Library a vitality that has made it a living force in the town. Many citizens, young and old, are eager readers because of the gracious presence of Miss Achilles at her desk. Although she realistically became a part of this modern age with its hurly-burly crudities, Miss Achilles never lost the kindly refinement of a Nineteenth Century Gentle- woman. 17y
