WASHINGTON IRVING BOOTH. This is a name of genuine prestige in banking circles of West Virginia. Mr. Booth has been and still is identified with several banks, but his main achievement is represented in the Clarksburg Trust Company, which he helped organize and of which he is president.
Mr. Booth is a native of Barhour County, West Virginia, and was born at Belington on June 11, 1882, son of John and Rachacl R. (Coyle) Booth.

John and Rachael Booth were the parents of three sons and four daughters. The mother (now deceased) was a Baptist and was greatly beloved for the qualities of her heart and mind. The father is a Presbyterian, has always been a stanch democrat, and his life has been one of commendable industry and good citizenship.
Washington Irving Booth during boyhood and youth worked on the farm and in his father's sawmill.

He ac- quired a good cominon school education, and after gradu- ating in 1903 from a business college at Parkersburg he became associated with the First National Bank at Beling- ton as assistant cashier. In that institution he laid the foundation of his banking experience and knowledge. Re- signing in 1908, he became assistant cashier of the Mer- chants and Mechanics Savings Bank at Grafton. Mr. Booth has gained a high reputation for his success as a bank organizer. He organized the First National Bank at Shinn- ston, and on July 15, 1909, became cashier of that institu- tion. He was also the organizer of the First National Bank at Fairview, and is still vice president at that point. Acquiring a block of stock in the Dunkard Valley Bank at
Blacksville, he has since been vice president of the institution.
Mr. Booth was the prime mover in the organization ( the Clarksburg Trust Company, which opened its doors fo business September 15, 1914, with him as president. Whi this is one of the younger banking institutions, in point ( resources and strength it is one of the most solid in th state. During the presidency of Mr. Booth it has ei perienced wonderful growth, now has resources of ove $3,000 000, total deposits of more than $2,500,000, and ove 14,000 accounts. The bank has a capital of $400,000.
Among other business connections Mr. Booth is presider of the Clarksburg Wholesale Company, is treasurer of th Prunty Real Estate Company and secretary-treasurer of th Parr Coal Company.

CHARLES W. TAYLOR was four years old when his father, Union soldier, died in a Southern prison. He early learned o face the serious responsibilities of the world, and in spite f handicaps he has won a substantial success. For a num- er of years he was a teacher, but the solid basis of his prosperity has been laid as a farmer.
Mr. Taylor, who lives on his farm up the waters of Stone Coal Creek, six miles east of Weston, was born on another arm, three miles nearer Weston, on September 7, 1860, son f Sandy and Augusta C. (Newberger) Taylor. His father was born in Buckingham County, Virginia, in 1835, and moved to West Virginia when about fifteen years of age. He had a limited education, and was married in Lewis County. His wife was born in Baltimore, Maryland, No- vember 28, 1838, and had a public school education. After their marriage they settled on a farm in Lewis County, and Sandy Taylor never got beyond the stage of a renter. When his children were all small he enlisted in Company D of the Fifteenth West Virginia Infantry, and was with his com- mand until wounded at the second battle of Bull Run. He died in 1864, being one of many Northern men who literally starved to death in Southern prisons. He was a republican in politics. His four children were: Frank, who lives on First Street in Weston; C. W .; Celia, deceased; and Sandy, a farmer on Stone Coal Creek.
Charles W. Taylor grew up on a farm, and always made the best possible advantages of his opportunities in the public schools, thus qualifying himself as a teacher. For seven terms he taught in West Virginia and then went out to South Dakota and took up a homestead and farmed there for five years. On his return to West Virginia he taught seven more terms of school and farmed at the same time.
On July 25, 1888, Mr. Taylor married Barbara Danfel, of Bunker Hill, Indiana, She died in November, 1892, the mother of two children, Lillie, wife of O. W. Gum, of Lewis County; and Leslie O., who graduated from the Glen- ville Normal School, the State University, with the A. B. degree, served in two training camps during the war and is now a student in Chicago. In 1900 Mr. Taylor married Iza Swisher, of Lewis County. Two children were born to this union: Ralph, now deceased, and Clifford, who is a graduate of an automobile school in Detroit. On February 9, 1922, Mr. Taylor married Elizabeth Hindinan, of Flor- ence, Alabama.
The well managed and valuable farm of Mr. Taylor con- tains 184 acres. He is also a stockholder in other enter- prises. His political allegiance is with the republican party, and he is a past noble grand of Lodge No. 136, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, is a member of the Encampment, and is affiliated with the Methodist Protestant Church.
H. ROY WAUGH, who is presiding on the bench of the Circuit Court of the Twentieth Judicial District of West Virginia, was elected to this office in November, 1920, and the preferment came as a consistent recognition of his ability as a lawyer and his high standing as a citizen. He maintains his home at Buckhannon, county seat of his native county.
Judge Waugh was born in the southern part of Upshur County, on the 4th of January, 1879, and is a son of Homer M. and Melissa J. (Morrison) Waugh, the former of whom was born May 19, 1854, and the latter August 14, 1858. Homer M. Waugh was born in Pocahontas County, this state, a son of James Waugh, whose father, James Waugh, Sr., immigrated from Scotland to America in 1739 and established his residence in Virginia. His son James
married Miss Sarah McGuire, and the son Samuel married Ann McGuire. The son James was a patriot soldier in the War of the Revolution. Jacob Waugh, another of the sons, was born in 1809, married Mary Brown and they became the parents of thirteen children.
Homer M. Waugh was reared in Upshur County, received the advantages of the common schools of the locality and period and became a prosperous farmer and rural merchant. He was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in which Jacob Waugh was a local preacher, besides which he served twenty years as clerk of the Circuit Court for Upshur County. Homer M. and Melissa J. Waugh became the parents of three children who attained to years of ma- turity, and of the number Judge Waugh of this sketch is the eldest; Ica remains at the parental home; and Jay is engaged in business activities at Clearfield, Pennsylvania.
Like other farmer hoys, Judge Waugh had his character founded on the fundamental of life, and his alert mentality has enabled him to supplement most effectively the training given by the realism of the farm. His early education was obtained in the public schools of his native county, and after a period of successful service as a teacher he entered West Virginia Wesleyan College, in which institution he continued his studies until he received therefrom his degree of Bachelor of Arts. Thereafter he attended the law de- partment of the University of West Virginia, in which he was graduated with the degree of Bachelor of Laws, with virtually coincident admission to the bar of his native state. He engaged in the practice of his profession at Buckhannon, and under the administration of President Taft he was ap- pointed United States district attorney for the Northern District of West Virginia, during his four years' incum- bency of which office he maintained his residence at Parkers- burg. He then returned to Buckhannon, where he continued to give his attention to his substantial and representative law business until his election to the bench of the Circuit Court in November, 1920, his assumption of the duties of this important judicial office having occurred on the 1st of January, 1921. Judge Waugh had previously served four years as prosecuting attorney of his native county, besides which he was for one term a member of the State Legisla- ture, in which he made a characteristically excellent record of loyal and progressive service. His political allegiance is given to the republican party, he and his wife hold mem- bership in the Methodist Episcopal Church, he is a past master of the local lodge of the Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, is a past chancellor of the local lodge of the Knights of Pythias, is a member of the Buckhannon Chamber of Commerce and the Rotary Club, and is a di- rector of the Peoples Bank of Buckhannon.
On the 17th of October, 1905, was solemnized the marriage of Judge Waugh and Miss Louisa P. Newlon, who likewise was born and reared in West Virginia and who was gradu- ated in both the musical and elocutionary departments of Keymeyer College. Judge and Mrs. Waugh have three children: Mary, John and Helen.
ALEXANDER MITCHELL was a native son of what is now the State of West Virginia, and he honored the common- wealth by his upright life and large and worthy achieve- ment. From the Wheeling Intelligencer of July 15, 1921, are taken the following extracts: "News that Col. Alex- ander Mitchell, for many years a foremost figure in banking circles of the city, passed away this morning at the Ohio Valley General Hospital, shortly after midnight, will be received with profound sorrow throughout this community. No man was more greatly admired and re- spected for many fine qualities of mind and heart. Integrity was synonymous with his name. His life work, the guidance of the Mutual Savings Bank, which he organized in 1887. has been a business achievement to which any man could point with pride. Kindly and unassuming, be counted friends and admirers by the thousands."
Alexander Mitchell was born on the old homestead farm of the family on the Bethany Pike, east of Wheeling, and the date of his nativity was March 19, 1847. He was a son of Zachariah and Ann (Baird) Mitchell, the latter a daughter of George Baird, of Washington, Pennsylvania.

HISTORY OF WEST VIRGINIA
Upon the death of his mother, in 1853, Alexander was takon into the home of his maternal grandfather at Washington, Pennsylvania, his father having removed to the West. He gained his early education in the schools at Washington and in 1867 graduated from Washington and Jefferson College, at Washington, Pennsylvania. In the same year he began the study of medicine in the office of his uncle, Dr. George Baird, at Wheeling, later he held a clerical position with the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, and in 1872 he became connected with the National Bank of West Vir- ginia. In 1879 he became assistant cashier of the Peoples Bank, and in 1887, assisted by Dr. George Baird, Howard Hazlett and other substantial citizens, he organized the Mutual Savings Bank, of which he was the guiding execu- tive until the time of his death. This was the first savings bank in West Virginia, and under his able administration it became one of the great financial institutions of a great industrial city and state. There is all of consistency in the following estimate: "Alexander Mitchell typified honesty, ability and honor in business, and his personality more than any other factor counted in the bank's wonderful progress." He was the father of the Wheeling Clearing House Associa- tion, which was organized in 1900, and he otherwise did much to stabilize and advance the general financial interests of his home city and native state. He was a loyal and ardent supporter of the principles of the republican party, but had no desire for political preferment. His fine civie loyalty was shown, however, in his vigorous and effective service as a member of the city council, to which he was first elected in 1887, his final election having occurred in 1907. He held for several terms the office of West Virginia vice president of the American Bankers Association. He was an earnest member of the Presbyterian Church, as is also his widow. Colonel Mitchell was one of the vital and progressive men who did much for the development of the "' Greater Wheeling," his civic liberality being in evidence at all times and his influence and co-operation being given in support of measures and enterprises advanced for the general good of the community.
In 1880 was solemnized the marriage of Colonel Mitchell and Miss Delia G. Harbour, daughter of the late Joseph C. Harbour, of Wheeling. Four children survive the honored husband and father: Baird, who succeeded his father as executive head of the Mutual Savings Bank; Harbour, who is vice president of the American Foundry & Construction - Company at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Miss Katharine, wlio is secretary of the Mutual Savings Bank; and Alexandra, who is the wife of Harry Eckhart, of Fort Worth, Texas.
