EUGENE SPENCER MILLER.
Eugene Spencer Miller died at his home in New Haven
on the third day of June, 1893. Mr. Miller was born in
421
Huntington, Mass., October 18, 1848. He was the son of
William Perkins Miller and Martha Vinton. He joined
this Society February 2, 1891, as the lineal descendant of
Levi Vinton, who served thirty-five months in the war
of the Revolution, as a member of Captain Hastings'
company, in Colonel Henry Jackson's Massachusetts
regiment.
Mr. Miller spent the early years of his life upon a farm
in his native village. After the death of his mother,
which occurred when he was eight years of age, he was
the constant companion of his father, between whom and
the son the closest and most affectionate relationship
existed until terminated by death. The father early
impressed upon his son the principles of humanity,
patriotism, and liberty, which fixed the boy's character,
and actuated the whole of his subsequent life. He was
educated in the district school in Huntington, and in the
High school in Chicopee, Mass., from which he gradu-
ated. After his graduation he went to New York city,
where he secured a position in a bank. Subsequently he
received and accepted a more responsible and lucrative
position with an extensive grain merchant, with whom
he remained for several years, during which time he was
a member of the New York Produce Exchange. In 1885
he removed to New Haven, and on the 21st of October
of the same year married Miss Harriet Adella Sperry,
daughter of the late Hon. Lucien W. Sperry. He was
at first associated with Enos S. Kimberly in the coal busi-
ness ; later he received from Collector Hutchinson the
appointment of Weigher and Gauger in the Internal
Revenue office in New Haven. Subsequently he was
promoted to the position of Deputy Collector of Internal
Revenue in the same office, a place of great responsi-
bility, which he filled with marked ability and unwaver-
ing faithfulness to the day of his death.
