| 3454 | W. Lebanon, N.H. — Mildred Fielding, born in Lynn Mass. On Aug. 15, 1914, died on Thursday, March 14, 2013 at her home in W. Lebanon, N.H. She was the daughter of Charles and Emma March and graduated in the class of 1932 from Lynn English High School in Lynn, Mass. She was married for 61 years to Wm. A. Fielding, a well known and respected former Councilman Rochester, N.H., and member of the House of Representatives for the state of N.H. In 1947 the Fieldings moved from Mass. To N.H. where Mr. Fielding was part of the team sent to Somersworth to set up the General Electric plant there, for the assembly and production of electric meters. Mrs. Fielding was an accomplished seamstress, making her daughter's clothes which were beautiful and fashionable. She was a consummate mother and wife and enjoyed her many special interests — golf being a predominant one. She and her husband were members of the Rochester Country Club for many years, and both were excellent golfers. She also enjoyed her Bridge and Poker ladies groups. She loved to "keep house" and enjoyed decorating her home and filled it with lovely antiques she searched for and then refinished, constantly painting and wall papering and moving things around. She stressed with her children that if you did something you had to do it right and frequently made them start over on a project until it was right. She was a member of the 1st Church Congregational where she sang in the choir. She volunteered at the Well Child Clinic at Frisbee Memorial Hospital, and also for the Rochester Red Cross. She was payroll supervisor for Frisbee Memorial Hospital, retiring in 1973. In 1999, Mrs. Fielding moved to West Lebanon where she was close to her son Bill's family and home. Here she was able to stay in her adopted and loved state of N.H., and be close to one of her children. She is survived by her son, William C. Fielding and his wife, Barbara and their children, Jessica (Michael) Lindamood, Leah (John) Hinckley, Kerry (Doug) Heavisides and Bill Fielding. Her daughter, Shirley lives in West Chester, Pa., with her husband, Jim Pritchard. Their daughter, Jennifer (Chuck Frye) and son, Jeffrey (Debra) who live in Calif., and N.J., respectively. Sister Violet lives in Mass. and sister, Helen pre-deceased her. Mrs. Fielding had six grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren, and nieces, Susan, Patti and Jayne, all of whom thought she was pretty cool. There is a website devoted to her and her love of cooking, and zest for life titled ProjectMimi.com. She was loved and admired for all of her 98 years by friends and family, and an inspiration to all of us. A graveside service will be Saturday, May 11, 2013 at 11:30 a.m. at the Rochester Cemetery. Arrangements are under the direction of R.M. Edgerly & Son Funeral Home, 86 South Main St, Rochester NH 03867. | March, Mildred Gladys (I28766)

| 3484 | Western Star \endash March 1, 1946 NOTE FROM OUR CORRESPONDENTS Queen's Cove Quite a pleasant- evening was spent at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Stoyles. Northern Bight Station, on Wednesday, January 23, where a number of friends had assembled to extend Happy Birthday greeting to their son Alfred James. Amongst those present were members of the American Repeater Station, who are stationed at Shoal Harbour. Reprinted from All Aboard, by Bill Baggs I went to work with the railway in June 1943 as telegraph operator. In June 1945 I took up duties as brakeman until June 1946. In July 1946 I went back as operator and worked at Alexander Bay for 4 1/2 years. In 1951 I moved to Gander until October 1951. Then I moved to Northern Bight until 1955 and worked at Goobies and Clarenville swing shift, moving to Grand Falls April 1957. I was operator on work trains for several years. I retired October 1988 with 45 years service. A. Stoyles Reprinted from All Aboard, Volume II, by Bill Baggs, 1997 Reminiscences of Co-workers on the Railyway. Memories of a Telegraph Operator (1943-1988) by A.J. Stoyles In 1943 I started to work with the railway. I was influenced by my mother, who was working with the postal telegraph, and by my father, who was the railway agent at Northern Bight. My mother would make me site at the telegraphy key and practise until I got it right, and, believe me, she wouldn't take "no" for an answer. Of course, I wasn't very fast, but as time went by I became much better, thanks to my mother's persistence. She was a great teacher and a very fast telegraph operator. My first test came one day when I was only thirteen years of age. My mother was out of town and my father became very ill. My sister said, "Al, you have to get on the key and call Clarenville and have them instruct the conductor on the eastbound freight train to stop at Northern Bight to pick up our father, Jim Stoyles, and take him to Come By Chance to see the doctor." I was so scared of the telegraph key, I said, "My God, how can I do that?" She said, "Just do it, or our dad may die." I thought, I guess I have no choice. So I got on the key and sen the message; and, believe it or not, they could read me! After that I figured, well, if they could read me, I couldn't be too bad. When I turned fifteen, my first job was with the fire patrol. That lasted one and a half years; then I passed the job to my uncle, Alfred Vey, and from there I went to work as a telegraph operator at Northern Bight. In 1944 I was the operator on a work train at Southern Bay (BO BCH) when engine No. 195 went off the track while backing up, rolling over an embankment into the salt water, wheels up. Engineer Ron Lowe and fireman Jim Hunt were seriously injured. Again I had to get on the key and call Clarenville for help. That was a terrifying experience for a young kid. My mother was so proud of me she said, "Now, my son, consider yourself a qualified telegraph operator." That was all I wanted to hear: that's when I made up my mind to be a railroader. Thanks to Bill Baggs for letting me share the space in his well-written new book, All Aboard! (Volume II). | Stoyles, Alfred James (I9916)

| 3485 | Western Star, 1973-03-27 Newfoundland's first female baliff named A few years ago it might have been difficult to find a woman in court except as plaintiff, defendant or witness, but with the advent of lady jurors, however, women are becoming more and more necessary to the smooth running of the court. Mr. Bessie Barfitt, the first woman bailiff or court attendant in Newfoundland, and wife of the court bailiff Harvey Barfitt, doesn't anticipate any difficulties in her new job or in working closely with her husband. "One woman did warn me," she laughs, "that a man had been looking in my purse. She was relieved when I told her it was my husband." Mrs. Barfitt's new job became necessary because of women jurors who might need to be accompanied to such places as the ladies room or their hotels. Mrs. Barfitts present experience in court has been purely as a spectator but she anticipates no problems. She also doesn't mind working with and seeing her husband during the day and says, "I wouldn't mind seeing him 24 hours a day." Mr. Barfitt is a 26-year veteran of the court, serving first as a cryer and then as bailiff Because Mrs. Barfitt's position is so new, no one seems to know just what to call her. She feels that she will be more of a court attendant as she will not be serving processes as her husband does. The job is temporary and part-time with Mrs. Barfitt being paid by the hour and when she is needed and with her expenses taken care of the same as the jurors. There are no sessions in the summer, so her job will be temporarily ended in May or June. The 51-year-old matron is originally from Green's Harbor, Trinity Bay, which she left about 30 years ago. Her husband is also from Trinity Bay, a place called Long Beach, where they met originally. They were married in 1946 and have one daughter who is married and living in St. John's. Mrs. Barfitt keeps busy when she is not needed in court by sewing, knitting, and keeping her mother, who lives with the couple, company. She said she did bowl once and likes sports but gave them up when she got older. She and her husband enjoy an active social life, however she says, nothing pleases them more than getting together with friends of their own age. | Crocker, Bessie Elsie (I561)

Mrs. Barfitt's new job became necessary because of women jurors who might need to be accompanied to such places as the ladies room or their hotels. Mrs. Barfitts present experience in court has been purely as a spectator but she anticipates no problems. She also doesn't mind working with and seeing her husband during the day and says, "I wouldn't mind seeing him 24 hours a day." Mr. Barfitt is a 26-year veteran of the court, serving first as a cryer and then as bailiff Because Mrs. Barfitt's position is so new, no one seems to know just what to call her. She feels that she will be more of a court attendant as she will not be serving processes as her husband does. The job is temporary and part-time with Mrs. Barfitt being paid by the hour and when she is needed and with her expenses taken care of the same as the jurors. There are no sessions in the summer, so her job will be temporarily ended in May or June. The 51-year-old matron is originally from Green's Harbor, Trinity Bay, which she left about 30 years ago. Her husband is also from Trinity Bay, a place called Long Beach, where they met originally. They were married in 1946 and have one daughter who is married and living in St. John's. Mrs. Barfitt keeps busy when she is not needed in court by sewing, knitting, and keeping her mother, who lives with the couple, company. She said she did bowl once and likes sports but gave them up when she got older. She and her husband enjoy an active social life, however she says, nothing pleases them more than getting together with friends of their own age. | Family F3253

| 3488 | Western Star, March 1, 1946 NOTE FROM OUR CORRESPONDENTS Queen's Cove Quite a pleasant- evening was spent at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Stoyles. Northern Bight Station, on Wednesday, January 23, where a number of friends had assembled to extend Happy Birthday greeting to their son Alfred James. Amongst those present were members of the American Repeater Station, who are stationed at Shoal Harbour. Reprinted from All Aboard, by Bill Baggs I went to work with the railway in June 1943 as telegraph operator. In June 1945 I took up duties as brakeman until June 1946. In July 1946 I went back as operator and worked at Alexander Bay for 4 1/2 years. In 1951 I moved to Gander until October 1951. Then I moved to Northern Bight until 1955 and worked at Goobies and Clarenville swing shift, moving to Grand Falls April 1957. I was operator on work trains for several years. I retired October 1988 with 45 years service. A. Stoyles Reprinted from All Aboard, Volume II, by Bill Baggs, 1997 Reminiscences of Co-workers on the Railyway. Memories of a Telegraph Operator (1943-1988) by A.J. Stoyles In 1943 I started to work with the railway. I was influenced by my mother, who was working with the postal telegraph, and by my father, who was the railway agent at Northern Bight. My mother would make me site at the telegraphy key and practise until I got it right, and, believe me, she wouldn't take "no" for an answer. Of course, I wasn't very fast, but as time went by I became much better, thanks to my mother's persistence. She was a great teacher and a very fast telegraph operator. My first test came one day when I was only thirteen years of age. My mother was out of town and my father became very ill. My sister said, "Al, you have to get on the key and call Clarenville and have them instruct the conductor on the eastbound freight train to stop at Northern Bight to pick up our father, Jim Stoyles, and take him to Come By Chance to see the doctor." I was so scared of the telegraph key, I said, "My God, how can I do that?" She said, "Just do it, or our dad may die." I thought, I guess I have no choice. So I got on the key and sen the message; and, believe it or not, they could read me! After that I figured, well, if they could read me, I couldn't be too bad. When I turned fifteen, my first job was with the fire patrol. That lasted one and a half years; then I passed the job to my uncle, Alfred Vey, and from there I went to work as a telegraph operator at Northern Bight. In 1944 I was the operator on a work train at Southern Bay (BO BCH) when engine No. 195 went off the track while backing up, rolling over an embankment into the salt water, wheels up. Engineer Ron Lowe and fireman Jim Hunt were seriously injured. Again I had to get on the key and call Clarenville for help. That was a terrifying experience for a young kid. My mother was so proud of me she said, "Now, my son, consider yourself a qualified telegraph operator." That was all I wanted to hear: that's when I made up my mind to be a railroader. Thanks to Bill Baggs for letting me share the space in his well-written new book, All Aboard! (Volume II). | Stoyles, Alfred James (I1072)
