Maurice Henry Pease,( second son of L. Hoyt and Julia L. (Sawyer ) Pease, was born September 10, 1883, in New Britain, Connecticut. There he attended school, and at the high school prepared for col- lege. He graduated from Yale College in 1905, and subsequently pursued a course at the Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology, graduating in 1907.
From 1907 to 1909, Mr. Pease was lo- cated in El Paso, Texas, in the interests of Stone & Webster, engineers.

September of that year. He served nine months overseas with the Fourth Corps. of the Third Army, and was commis- sioned major of engineers, November I, 1918, as a reward for service. Major Pease is a member of the college fra- ternity Delta Kappa Epsilon.
On May 10, 1920, Mr. Pease married Barbara Moore, daughter of E. Allen Moore, of New Britain.
PARSONS, Charles Henry, Head of Important Business.
Charles Henry Parsons, of New Britain, Connecticut, came of an ancestry of a sturdy, self-respecting character which led to a high place in the regard of the communities in which the Parsons dwelt, and made of them citizens of known worth and integrity.
The family name is derived from Par- son or Person, a term applied to those having dignity or authority, the final s being added to denote that the bearer of the name was a son in direct succession to the bearer of the title. The members of the family have been distinguished by their independence of thought and action, dominated by a rigid sense of justice, a kindliness of attitude towards others, and a desire to deserve whatever of good might come to them-and these character- istics were all predominant in Charles H. Parsons. He was an excellent example of a race fast disappearing of men whose character and ability formed the founda- tion on which New England's greatness has been reared.
His father was Charles Henry Parsons, a carpenter-contractor in New Britain, then a thriving village with a population of about 3,000. It was before the days of the advent of the foreign element, and there were few social cleavages or differ- ences in standing except those caused by
personal worth and ability. The factories were in their beginnings, and were oper- ated by village people supplemented by the young people from neighboring farms who found the regular wages of a shop attractive. The young contractor and his wife stood well in the community, and owned their own home and the house be- side it, both standing south of the present site of the South Church, and classed as among the better residences. Here Charles Henry Parsons was born on April II. 1847. Three years later his father died, soon followed by his mother, leaving Charles H. and his older sister Emma doubly orphaned.
An uncle, John Brainard Parsons, was made the guardian of the children and took them into his own home, where they were reared as members of his family, and where they remained until Charles H. was fully grown. He attended the New Britain public schools and high school, and to more fully fit himself for his career, finished with a course in Eastman's Busi- ness College.
Mr. Parsons' first venture into the world of affairs was made in the New Britain Post Office, which he entered at the age of nineteen. It soon became ap- parent to him that this place did not afford an outlet into bigger things, and at the end of a year he resigned to take a position in the office of Landers, Frary & Clark as a salesman. Here he remained for seven years, and it was while he was in this employ that he and his sister de- cided to have a home of their own and built the house on Franklin street, where they lived for a number of years. It was here that Mr. Parsons brought his young wife, Isabelle Seymour, daughter of Ira B. Smith, a prominent grocer of New Britain. It was here, also, that three of his sons were born, the fourth arriving after the removal of the family to the resi-

dence at No. 310 West Main street, where they lived for the remainder of Mr. Par- sons' life.
In 1873 Philip and Andrew Corbin de- cided that they needed a salesman of superior ability to cover New England and Canada for P. & F. Corbin, and their choice fell upon Mr. Parsons, who knew of the enterprise and rapid growth of the concern and was favorably inclined to the connection, so that an arrangement was easily concluded. At this time, the trade in New England and Canada was can- vassed from the factory ; but owing to the fact that the most of the hardware sold in the United States was imported, the hardware buyers of the country naturally visited New York for their semi-annual purchases of stock, and P. & F. Corbin, like many other concerns, located their sales department in that city. The terri- tory was not as frequently covered as at the present time, and in the intervals be- tween his trips. Mr. Parsons spent his time in the order department, caring for the needs of his own trade and the orders which came from New York. In 1879. when the changing conditions made it ad- visable to move the sales department to New Britain, Mr. Parsons took on in- creased responsibility and became the company's first sales manager, gradually extending to the other parts of the coun- try the methods he had found successful in New England. From that time he was responsible for the sale of the company's product, and had a deciding voice in the selection of the goods to be made, and the growth of the business and the favor its product enjoyed can be directly attributed to his genius and intuitive understanding of the requirements of the trade.
In 1883 the election of a new secretary caused a realignment of duties, and Mr. Parsons assumed a larger share of the executive duties of the company. In
1891 he was made a director of P. & F. Corbin, and later he became successively its second vice-president, first vice-presi- dent and president. Throughout all of his career he kept in close touch with the sales department, maintaining his ac- quaintance with the company's principal customers visits and through a friendly correspondence.
In 1902, when the American Hardware Corporation was formed and P. & F. Cor- bin became a division of the new organi- zation, Mr. Parsons was made a director and assistant treasurer, and continued to govern the P. & F. Corbin division as well. As the business of P. & F. Corbin continued to be conducted upon the same basis as before the consolidation, the change left Mr. Parsons with all his old responsibilities and the addition of an in- creasing burden of new ones. At the death of Philip Corbin, Mr. Parsons was made first vice-president in charge of sales of the American Hardware Corpora- tion, the management of the P. & F. Cor- bin division being transferred to his son, Charles B. Parsons, who has been con- nected with the company since leaving high school. In his new office, Mr. Par- sons had a general oversight of the sales of the American Hardware Corporation. His tenure was but brief, however, for on April 13. 1913, he died of double pneu- monia after a short illness.
Mr. Parsons was a member of the New Britain Club, the Farmington Country Club. the Hardware Club of New York, the Connecticut Society. Sons of the American Revolution, and the New Britain Business Men's Association. He was a Mason-member of Centennial Lodge, Ancient Free and Accepted Ma- sons : Giddings Chapter, Royal Arch Ma- sons; Doric Council. Royal and Select Masters : Washington Commandery, Knights Templar, of Hartford; and

Sphinx Temple, Ancient Arabic Order Nobles of of Mystic Shrine.
Mr. Parsons' death was the first break in the family circle. His sister has since died, leaving as survivors his wife, Isa- belle Seymour Parsons, and four sons : Charles Bateman Parsons, vice-president of the American Hardware Corporation, and general manager of P. & F. Corbin division ; Howard Seymour Parsons, New England representative for P. & F. Cor- bin; Robert Mason Parsons, New York manager for the Stanley Rule and Level Company ; Munroe Hotchkiss Parsons, mechanical engineer for the Babcock & Wilson Manufacturing Company of New York City.
Mr. Parsons' modesty effectually pre- vented in his lifetime any general demon- stration of affection or respect, but at his burial, restraints were removed, and the
city turned out to do him honor. Friends whom he had made in his business career came from all parts of the country from which New Britain could be reached in time for the final ceremonies.
This brief resumé of the life of Charles Henry Parsons is written seven years after his death. Viewed through the cor- rective perspective of time, the character- istics which loom large in the memory of him are his unfailing kindliness and cour- tesy; the ingrained self-respect which would permit him to do no wrong to others ; his keen business instinct and fair- ness in all things, and his magnetic per- sonality which made for him friends of all who knew him. Great in intellect and in heart, true to others because faithful to his concept of his duty to himself, he ex- ercised an influence upon all who knew him which was not ended with his death.
