Charles E. Grinnell

Another man who recently had come among us was Charles Edward Grinnell of Boston. He graduated from Harvard in 1862, and to the end of his life was secretary of his class, a post requiring kindness and unselfishness. He was a lawyer, for many years Master in Chancery, at one time editor of the American Law Review, and the author of a number of interesting articles upon the trials of criminals. He was a genial man, who traveled the world over, learned to know the cities and the minds of men, finding everywhere his fellow man, and delighting in him. Late in life, with leisure on his hands and in his soul, he rather gravitated from Boston to the warmer atmosphere of The Century Club.
