COLONEL CHARLES PARROTT.

Colonel Charles Parrott, one of the original members and a life

member of the Ohio State Archaeological and Historical Society, and for

many years one of its active trustees, died at his home, Columbus, Ohio,

January 22, 1901. Colonel Parrott was born in Dayton, Ohio, September

2, 1834. A brief sketch of his life will be found in Vol. IV, page 470,

of the Society's publications. The last few years of his life were devoted

to the work incidental to his membership in the Ohio State Board of

Charities, to which position he was at first appointed by Governor For-

aker in 1889. He was an earnest student in the subject of public char-

ities, and had become by both study and experience, one of the best

authorities in matters of the conduct of eleemosynary institutions. Col-

onel Parrott was a graduate of the Ohio Wesleyan University and the

Cincinnati Law School, and was a gentleman of much learning and

culture.
