Obituary

Charles Allen '47.

Hon. Charles Allen '47, former judge of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, died yesterday at the age of eighty-five. Judge Allen was perhaps with a single exception the only surviving member of his class.

His career, at law lasted for nearly fifty years, during which time he held a number of very important offices. From 1862 to 1872 he was Attorney General of Massachusetts and in 1880 he was honored with the appointment as one of the three commissioners to revise the General Statues of this State.
