Charles Harrison Tweed graduated from Ha[r]vard in 1865; admitted to the Bar, he entered the office of Evarts, Southmayd & Choate; in due time, became a partner, and married a daughter of Mr. Evarts. He withdrew from the firm to become general counsel for the Central Pacific, the Chesapeake & Ohio, and subsequently the Southern Pacific. He also became a member of the banking house of Speyer & Co. A few years ago, he retired from affairs. In his day an active yachtsman, of late years he might be often seen reading in the Century Library. He was an able lawyer, and a genial, kindly gentleman.
