I just heard from a friend on the faculty of the University of Georgia Hugh
Hodgson School of Music that trumpeter Fred Mills was killed in a car
accident today in Athens.  He had just returned from a trip to Italy.

I don't know that Fred ever made any 78s, but he was a long-time trumpeter
with the Canadian Brass, and for the past several years was a professor of
trumpet at the University of Georgia.
