Millard's obituary as it appeared in the Boston Globe, May 29, 1928. It is datelined "Special Dispatch to the Globe, Damariscotta, ME" and says, "... In September of 1875 he quite the sea, went to Boston and became a conductor on the old Highland Street Railway, remaining there till 1881, when he became a passenger brakeman on the old New York and New England Railroad. On Nov. 5 of that year [he] was appointed to the Boston Police Department as a patrolman ... He was married in 1880 to Miss Sada F. Atkinson." Millard, the grandson, has felt certain that the facts contained in this "dispatch" were supplied by Sada so that in the record she wanted to present in 1928. There was no mention of any of Millard's children in the Obit.
