Excerpt from Memorials of Charles Parry: Commander Royal Navy This simple Memoir of a young Naval Officer is enriched with no stirring tales of hardship or adventure. But the uneventful record of an unobtrusive, cheerful piety and of consistent Christian principle may, it is earnestly hoped, be of use to the noble Service, which Charles Parry never discredited, and always loved. Those who knew him best had augured much from his increasing influence, as he rose to the higher grades of his fathers honoured profession.
