sity, taking the course of arts, while subsequently he matriculated in the University of Michigan, and in due course of time was graduated. In the vacation periods he read law, and when he had sufficiently mastered the principles of jurisprudence to enable him to successfully pass the required examination he was admitted to the Ohio bar. On leaving college he re- - moved to Columbus, where he engaged in the practice of law for a short time, after which he turned his attention to banking, entering that field of activity under General John Beatty, of the Citizens Savings Bank of Co- lumbus. For several years he was actively connected with that institution, and then organized the City Deposit Bank, which was later converted into the City National Bank. As cashier of this bank he is largely controlling its affairs, and the methods he has instituted are those of modern, progressive banking tempered by a safe conservatism that makes no false steps. Mr. Jennings is also connected with a number of leading industrial enterprises, and his position in business circles is one of prominence.


On the 14th of January, 1892, Mr. Jennings was united in marriage to Miss Isabel Pagels, and they have one daughter, Elizabeth. Mr. Jennings gives his political allegiance to the republican party. He belongs to the Sigma Chi, a college fraternity, and to the Episcopal church, and his influ- ence is ever on the side of progress and improvement, whether in affairs re- lating to his private business concerns or to municipal interests. He is today a valued representative of the business life of the city, ranking high in financial circles.


JAMES T. CARROLL.


James T. Carroll, editor and publisher of the Catholic Columbian, has been a resident of Columbus for twenty years. He was born in Ireland in 1868 and attended school at St. Michael's Preparatory College in Listowel, County Kerry, Ireland. Subsequently he pursued a college course in Glas- gow, Scotland, and his thorough educational training has proved an excellent foundation for his success in business life. He assumed the management of the Catholic Columbian in 1905, and was one of the promoters of the Colum- bian Printing & Publishing Company, which is capitalized at one hundred thousand dollars. They do a general printing and publishing business and have an extensive patronage, the volume of their trade constantly increasing in importance and extent.


For four years Mr. Carroll also occupied a position of large responsibil- ity as the national secretary of the Ancient Order of Hibernians, occupying the office from 1904 until 1908. He was elected to the position in St. Louis, Missouri, in 1904, and was unanimously reelected at Saratoga, New York, in 1906. He is also a member of the Knights of Columbus, the Catholic Order of Foresters, the Knights of St. John and the Catholic Knights of Ohio. As editor of the Catholic Columbian he has proved himself compe- tent, manifesting a spirit of progress in all that he undertakes in this con-

nection. The paper has become a power for the spread of Catholicism and Catholic ideals under his leadership, and is widely read among the followers of this church. Mr. Carroll is married, has three children and maintains the family residence at No. 681 Neil avenue.


NICHOLAS MONSARRAT.


Nicholas Mousarrat has since the first of March, 1889, been the presi- dent of the Hocking Valley Railway Company and stands as a splendid type of the railway official who, in his executive capacity, guides and di- rects the operations of the most important line extending diagonally across the state of Ohio and proving one of the most important outlets for trade interests in the state.


Mr. Monsarrat is a native of Canada, his birth having occurred in the city of London on the 1st of March, 1839. His parents were Charles and Elizabeth Monsarrat, well known residents of that city, and while spending his boyhood days in their home the son was sent to the grammar school con- ducted by Rev. Benjamin Bayley. In further pursuit of an education that would qualify him for the practical and responsible duties of life, he entered Toronto University and was graduated therefrom with the Bachelor of Arts degree as a member of the class of 1859. This constituted his scholastic training, while his business education was secured in the broader academy of actual experience. Throughont his business career he has been identified with railway interests. He sought the freedom and appreciation of the great American republic, crossing the border into this country, where com- petition is greater but where advancement is more quickly secured. Early in life he realized the fact that the successful men are those who prove their worth by the capable, efficient, prompt and faithful discharge of duty and it has been along this line that he has worked his way steadily upward, being advanced from one position to another since 1872 he became identified with railway interests, his connection therewith now covering thirty-seven years. The employer today is constantly on the alert to find efficient, capable assistants and when the individual is found who does not fear laborious attention to detail nor thinks that he is giving his employer an unrequited service, in time his promotion follows just as surely as the night the day. Gradual advancement through positions of increasing responsibility have brought Mr. Monsarrat to the presidency of the Hocking Valley Railroad Company, controlling the most important coal-carrying system west of the Allegheny mountains in this great middle section of the country. He was chosen to the presidency March 1, 1889, and has been unanimously reelected at each successive annual election.


Mr. Monsarrat was united in marriage to Miss Corinne Blanche Henry, a member of a prominent family of Bowling Green, Kentucky. They now occupy a beautiful manorial country seat near the town of Powell, a few miles distant from the northern limits of Columbus, where they freely but
