From the Milton College Preservation Society web site:
"In the summer and fall 1857, the need of another building for dormitory purposes being greatly felt, the trustees authorized Hon. Joseph Goodrich and Hon. Jeremiah Davis . . . to erect one" for fifty students. Its cost was nearly $5000, and was finished by the beginning of the winter term 1857."
"At that time, and for the five years following, the dormitory was rented to both lady and gentleman students; the ladies occupying the third and fourth floors, the gentlemen the second and the basement floors."
