YOUR HOME IS NOT AN E.R. DON’T LET IT BECOME ONE.

Your home is the center of your life. A place of comfort and familiarity. But it’s not an emergency room. So, don’t let it become one. If you experience symptoms of a stroke or heart attack, have trouble breathing, or have a serious injury or medical issue, it is critical that you don’t wait to seek care. McLaren is here for you – and still the safest place to go in an emergency.

LINDEN Continued from Page 4 Seth Sadler’s diary was written in Spencerian script, which was time consuming to decipher but enjoyable to read. He reported the results of Linden Village’s first charter election held March 6, 1871, as Linden be- came an Incorporated Village. It is rewarding as curator to have helped verify the dates of Linden’s charter election of March 6, 1871 written in Seth Sadler’s own hand- writing from his diary which I tran- scribed and subsequently shared with Pete Maas in his successful quest for provenance of Linden as an Incor- porated Village helping to make the Milestone Award plaque a reality. It is humbling to hold the diaries from so long ago and turn the pages to read what life was like in those early days. The Linden Museum and the Mill Building will always hold a special place in my heart. Not only are ex- hibits important to have and to view, but I felt it was important to tell the story of Linden and its people, their ancestors and families who lived there and created history in their ef- forts and dedication in making Lin- den the dynamic town that it is. I would encourage families to visit our museum and see all that we have to offer for everyone. View our history storyboards de- picting much of Linden’s history including Fairview Cemetery tours of 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2015.
