It played, however, and that served the purpose for the 12 year old boy who "liked to make things." Chatfield made that first, crude violin on the sly. He appropriated his mother's fire shovel for the neck, back and top. For strings he used thread from her sewing box. He made the bridge out of a chip from the wood pile. At a loss as to what to use for the bow, he sought out his father. "Just a stalk of wood and some hair from a horse's tail would do," came the reply from a father who didn't really suspect his son was making a violin. His son had warned his father before, however, that some day he would make a violin Chatfield followed his father's suggestion exactly — again on the sly. He cut off a branch from a family cherry tree. His uncle's white horse supplied, though unwillingly, the hair. "I guess I got too close with the shears and the horse just ripped my uncle's buggy all to pieces," Chatfield recalled recently. "I sneaked back into the cellar the same way I came." The instrument made music — after a fashion. He played it in the basement only when his mother lay down for a nap. One day Mrs. Chatfield told her husband that she thought their Troy Center house was haunted, that she heard eerie sounds, especially when she lay down. The elder Chatfield heard the sound himself one day, but he tracked down the "ghost" for his relieved wife — their son playing his violin in the cellar. Chatfield's skill as a violin maker increased considerably with the years. He now makes about two a year in his shop at the rear of his home, 213 E. Oak st. Several years ago he sold one to a person in New England, N.D. for $650 — the highest price one of his products ever commanded. He sold another 18 months ago to a person in Los Angeles, Calif., for $600. Chatfield, an employee of the Oconomowoc Water and Light department for 35 years and its chief engineer for 30, also repairs string instruments in his shop. In addition to his violins, he also has made two cellos and the tops and backs for basses. He has been playing the violin since he was 7, when his father purchased him one and a neighbor gave him lessons. "I could play three or four pieces before I went to bed the first night I got the violin," Chatfield said. "Now I'm 65 and I can't play any better than I could at 7." Chatfield has played with the Waukesha Symphony orchestra for about five seasons. Without interruptions, Chatfield feels that he could make a violin in about two weeks. But when one works eight hours a day on his regular job and has repair work to complete on instruments, there are bound to be interruptions. Once the violin is made, too, Chatfield allows another three months for varnishing so that it cures properly. A secret formula which Chatfield said only he and his son knows, is used for varnishing. Most vital element in the violin is the soft curley (flamed) maple, of which the backs, necks and ribs are constructed. Shortly after coming to Oconomowoc in 119, Chatfield found an ample supply of curley maple. He now has enough corded for 200 backs. "The backs could just as well be made out of plain wood," Chatfield explained, "but plain wood would not be as beautiful as curley maple when varnished. Selling one make of wood other than curley maple would be very difficult." Glued together in Chatfield's violins are 219 separate pieces of wood/ Spruce is used for the tops, willow for the corner and end blocks and lining (reinforcing) strips and ebony for the trimmings. Chatfield never uses his curley maple until it has been cured at least 14 years. About three months before the wood is used, it is placed in the sun and turned over periodically. The wood must pass a rigorous tone test before Chatfield uses it. Here is how he does it: From the freshly cut tree, he takes an inch square piece of wood from the second cut from the bottom and bakes it until all the moisture is out. Then he saws the wood until it is one half inch square and seven and a half inches long. This piece of wood is tied to a string, which he holds while tapping the wood with an old felt (piano) hammer. "If a certain tone is produced — I can't tell you just what tone, of course — it can be used for a violin," Chatfield said. "If the tone is above this certain tone, the violin tone would be harsh; if it is below, the violin would be sluggish." "When the tops and backs are finished," Chatfield continued, "they must be tuned together. The tops must be one tone lower than the backs." Chatfield made his second "fiddle" the same year he made his first — this one out of a cigar box. The more violins he made the better became his workmanship. Most of the early violins were given away to friends. He began making and selling violins regularly following his marriage in 1911. Chatfield's first violin transaction was completed in 1912, when he traded one in the Western part of the state for 25 gallons of honey. Chatfield has four children — one son and three daughters. Three are musically inclined. One daughter is an artist. A bolt of lightning, the small bespectacled Chatfield believes, helped him resume violin making in his younger days. He had not make any for two years following an attack of diphtheria which left him "practically paralyzed" from the hips down. He used a cane. One day, while helping his mother with the washing, a storm developed. "A lightening bolt struck a tree and the concussion knocked both mother and me down. I got up and ran into the house, forgetting about my cane. Soon after that my limbs began to loosen up." Chatfield did not say whether it was a curley maple tree.

Burial Plot: Lot N1/220, Sec 7, Grave 3. ----- [Obituary]: Sep 27, 1886: Kankakee, Illinois: ——Frank Stoddard Chatfield "His sun has gone down while yet it is day." A large and sympathizing circle of relatives and friends met on Monday afternoon to attend the funeral services of Frank S. eldest child of Wm. S. and Laura Chatfield who passed away from earth Sabbath noon after a sickness of 10 hours aged 14 years and four months. This beloved, departed one, was a youth of unusual intelligence and promise, gifted with a mind of uncommon ability, talents of a literary order, an extensive and diligent reader, he had already made a thorough and critical acquaintance with the works of many of the most popular authors of the day. A few articles published in the Truth Journal on "Dickens and Thackeray, Modern Fiction," "Victor Hugo," etc., with many unpublished manuscripts show a discriminating, and appreciative mind, mature beyond his years. In point of moral character he was affectionate and truthful, honest and upright, and chose only such characters for companions. He was reserved and unsocial with strangers, and a somewhat intimate acquaintance was necessary to draw out his amiable qualities. He invariably read from the bible before retiring for the night. The only time, for more than five years, when it was omitted, was when he lay upon the bed of death, the last night of his life. The resolutions and testimonials of his fellow students in the Commercial College read by the pastor, Rev. Mr. Upson at the funeral showed their appreciation of him, as did also their "token of love," an anchor of beautiful and fragrant flowers. Miss Shaw a former teacher, showed her esteem by a beautiful floral offering as did numerous other friends, all of which are gratefully appreciated by the bereaved parents. His last sickness, endured with patience, was short and distressing. During its continuance, he frequently said ‘'Papa I love you" or "Mamma I love you." Shortly before his death, he said "Mamma I am going to leave you, I am going to die, kiss me for good bye." Being asked, "Are you afraid to die?" He replied "No." "Are you willing?" "Yes," he answered. Retaining his consciousness to the last minute, he kissed all the family, bade them good bye, laid his hands on his breast, closed his eyes, breathed quietly a few times, and all was over. His spirit has passed into the unseen world. Consecrated to God by baptism in infancy, he was the child of many prayers and ardent hopes. --- Newspaper clipping in James Herrick Chatfield family Bible Source: THE CHATFIELD STORY, Terry & Margaret "Peg" (Chatfield) McCarty, Georgetown, Texas, www.chatfieldstory.com Parents: William Stoddard CHATFIELD and Laura Emily DOLE.

He'd worked in knitting mills in Cohoes, and rapidly rose in Munsingwear. He was posthumously awarded Minnesota Inventor of the Year, with over 20 patents in knitting machinery. Ended up a VP -- he refused the presidency because he preferred working on the floor and dreaming up new ways of doing things. ----- Inventors Hall of Fame - Minnesota Franklin Chatfield - 1979 Inductee (1875 - 1973) A mechanical genius and long-time vice-president of Munsingwear, Inc., he was considered an inventive genius throughout the circular knit industry. At age 14, his formal education ended. He started working as a laborer carrying huge yarn baskets in one of the 21 knitting mills in the area of Cohoes, New York, then the knitting capital of the USA. His curiosity about machinery, knitting, mechanics, and chemistry promoted much extra study and self instruction and, in time, he became recognized as one of the leading experts in the understanding, maintenance, improvement and repair of the relatively complicated tubular knitting machines of that era. In 1902, he debated whether he should gamble and go to the Yukon in the "new" gold rush to seek his fortune, or gamble and go to Munsingwear in Minneapolis. He felt at that time that they were equal gambles, but he knew he had mastered the care of knitting machines, so off he went to Minneapolis in 1903, with the idea that if it didn’t work out, he’d go on to the Yukon gold rush. For 40 years he developed and improved knitting and fabric processing machinery, acquiring 34 U.S. patents. His mechanical patents greatly increased the efficiency of the manufacturing process so that the mutual benefit of quality manufacturing and price control is passed on to the apparel industry and the consuming public. He fought for standardization and simplification, both at Munsingwear and in the knitting industry. He devoted many years to research on shrinkage control and on development and improvement of fabrics. His garment patents have directly affected the quality, fit and comfort of today’s underwear. Chatfield’s accomplishments helped Munsingwear grow into a multi-million dollar, international apparel company. Spouse: Alice May PEASE.
