Hartford Times, Tuesday, March 27, 1912: George B. Cleveland Dead at 80 Years of Age. Formerly Prominent Citizen of Portland - Connected With Brownstone Quarries Many Years. George B. Cleveland of No. 52 New Park avenue died this noon, after a short illness, as the result of a stroke of apoplexy, at the advanced age of 80 years. He was first taken down about six weeks ago and suffered several additional shocks from which he failed to recover. Mr. Cleveland was born in Winsted, this state, and spent his early years in that place. After attending the public schools in Winsted he went to Williston seminary in East Hampton, Mass. On returning to Winsted he taught school for several years, in Winstead, New Britain, and other places. Mr. Cleveland was elected to the legislature from Winsted in the '60's and throughout his whole life took an active part in politics. He was a republican. When about 45 years of age he moved to Portland, this state, and for twenty years was connected in an official capacity with the brownstone quarries in that town. While in Portland he was first selectman of the town for several years and a member of the republican town committee for many years. He was a prominent member of Warren Lodge, F. and A. M., of Portland and has been active in Masonic circles for fifty years. He was also a member of long standing of Apollo lodge, K. of P., of Middletown. He was also a Fremonter and attended their last banquet held in Hartford. Mr. Cleveland had an endless host of friends. His genial disposition and abiding integrity for all that was good was a qualification that won for him the respect and love of all with whom he came in contact. It has often been said that he "never had an enemy." Among his most intimate friends was E. Irving Bell, one of Portland's most prominent men, to-day, and the late Erastus Brainard of Portland, another, who was all his life a very influential man in that place. Mr. Cleveland has been a resident of Hartford about eight years. Besides a wife he leaves two sons and two daughters, C. D. Cleveland and R. G. Cleveland of Bridgeport and Mrs. L. B. Norton of No. 340 Farmington avenue and Miss Grace Cleveland of No. 52 New Park avenue, Hartford. A sister, Mrs Warren A. Crane of New York city and a brother, Hon.

Clifford ? Mistress. Children were: William LONGESPEE Earl of Salisbury, Geoffrey Archbishop of York . Alice
Broadus Clifford
was born on
1 Apr 1927. Alice worked for many years at Goddard College in Plainfield, Vermont,
and later worked for Ben and Jerry's Incorporated, handling the consumer correspondence.
She lived in Adamant, Vermont, in the house previously owned by her former mother-in-law,
Natalie Sloan. She married second, Wilfred Hamlin of Plainfield, a faculty member
at Goddard College.
From the Swarthmore alumni bulletin: "Opening a pint of Ben and Jerry's ice cream can bring on any number of reactions: guilt for your self-indulgence; gratitude for the size of the chunks in Chunky Monkey or for the smoothness of Wavy Gravy; pride in your support of one of the most unique and charitable businesses operating in this country today; or possibly even disappointment that your Cherry Garcia is missing cherries. And if you are inspired to share your feelings with the creators of the original "bad-for-your-waistline, great-for-the- environment" dessert, write to Alice Clifford Blachly '49. Blachly is the consumer relations coordinator for Ben and Jerry's, which means she has spent every workday for the past 10 years reading and responding to consumers' letters on corporate policy, environmental policy, grassroots politics-and ice cream. Blachly arrived at Ben and Jerry's through what she calls a "circuitous route," during which she indulged a "vague interest in publishing" and served stints in early childhood education, university administration, teacher training, and as a reference librarian. While working at Goddard College in Vermont, she met her husband-to-be, and they bought a farm outside of Adamant, near Calais, Vt. When farming proved untenable, they converted their barn into a playhouse for "Unadilla," the local theater troupe they had founded and named after the town Unadilla, N.Y., where the barn's rafters had been made. Blachly's interest in theater had first been awakened by the Rose Valley Players of Rose Valley, Pa., whose performances she had attended while at Swarthmore. She was particularly struck by their production of Chekhov's The Seagull. Mentioning this years later to her husband, it turned out that he had also seen the Rose Valley Players. Today Chekhov is standard stock for the Unadilla players, as is Tom Stoppard, J.B. Priestley, and of course Shakespeare. Now considered a professional group by the local population, they are "the only access to this kind of culture for miles around!" says Blachly. So what finally led Blachly to Ben and Jerry's ice cream parlor-apart from the obvious allure of a double scoop of Chunky Monkey? At the time when farming was becoming impossible, she was approached by an acquaintance in the company who felt that with her education and friendly manner she would be a great consumer relations coordinator. Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield felt that her cultural background matched that of their customers, who are "very literate and make lots of literary allusions, " she says. The company's two founders had definite ideas about the importance of good writing and how to personalize responses. (Jerry's mother was an English teacher, so he grew up a stickler for good grammar.) When Blachly first began working there, Jerry would review her responses and add personal P.S.s to them, often dealing with more serious questions about how to start a small business or about social issues. "I learned a lot about style from him. He gave very thoughtful answers," she says. Remarking on the humor and intelligence evident in consumers' letters, Blachly recalls one from an apparently desperate customer : "This is a protest letter denouncing ... your corrupting influence in my life with your degrading, addictive product euphemistically called Coffee Almond Fudge Frozen Yogurt [CAFFY]. How could you do this to me? Here I am in my sunset years and a hopeless, non-rehabilitative, over-the-hill addict. Oh, I've tried your other enticements, all equally irresistible, but none with the power to guide my hand away from CAFFY in the Kroger Cabinet of Temptations. And yes, I've tried abstinence ... but the withdrawal symptoms are unprintable." The letter ends with a cheerful "Keep up the good work." "The people who write have given themselves permission to play," says Blachly, "so I play too. Ben and Jerry want me to do that." In response to a customer's feigned dismay at the absence of any real monkey in the Chunky Monkey ice cream, Blachly responded: "When we came out with Chunky Monkey back in 1988, the name was sufficiently bizarre as to not risk confusion with reality. However, we didn't reckon with California, where evidently the cuisine is so exotic that a name like Chunky Monkey might actually be taken literally. Just in case you were wondering, there's no gravy in Wavy Gravy, no hubby in Chubby Hubby, no rainforest in Rainforest Crunch, and no Aztec in Aztec Harvests Coffee either. We're deliberately trying to confuse people." The pleasure Blachly draws from her work is evident. "I'm concerned with `the fundamental things of the universe,'" says Blachly, who has cultivated her liberal arts education into a lifestyle. She is continually grateful for her "intense" experience at Swarthmore, where she "learned a respect and love for the truth ... and how to learn for the sake of learning." Writing for Ben and Jerry's creates no conflict with this lifestyle, even if she is now technically a part of "corporate America." The company donates a significant portion of its proceeds to grassroots organizations and groups that work with disadvantaged children and families and the global environment. Specifically they are interested in groups that attack the root causes of problems in society. "I wouldn't feel they were unique," Blachly says. "Ben and Jerry are now aging hippies," she continues, "in the best sense of the word. They are very mellow, terribly nice guys with great ideas. They are very idealistic but also practical." They have faced the fact that they must make money in order to give it away, but they have thought it through in a fresh way. "Is it possible to be a successful business and to care about the global community? It can be done, and it makes the public feel hopeful. I hear that in their letters," she says. And she'd love you to drop her a line-even if you don't like ice cream." She was married to William Norton BLACHLY in May 1956. She was divorced from William Norton BLACHLY about 1983.
