C. H. Maxwell
C. H. Maxwell is the son of Henderson Maxwell, a former justice of the peace of Kingston Township, Delaware County, Ohio. The older members of the Bar will all remember "Squire Maxwell," as he was generally known, twenty-five years ago. The subject of this sketch was educated in the public schools of his native township, and at the Ohio Wesleyan University. He studied law with the firm of Marriott and Wickham, in the early part of the nineties and was admitted to the Bar. He soon after went to Toledo, Ohio, where he opened an office, but owing to the failing health of his father he returned to his father's home in Delaware County to look after his farm. He remained in Delaware County until after the death of his father, and until about two years ago, when he went to the State of California, where he now resides.
