Charles Carroll Of Carrollton went from Paris to London, in 1757, to occupy his chambers, engaged for him by Mr. Perkins in the Temple. Mr. Perkins, a merchant of London and the owner of the ship " The Two Sisters," sailing under Captain Henry Carroll, it appears, was a sort of guardian to young Carroll during the latter's term of student-life abroad. Frequent allusion is made to these two gentlemen in the letters of the elder Carroll, and to Mr. Perkins Charles Carroll was referred in many matters of business. Whether Captain Carroll was a relative of the Carrolls of Doughoregan is not made clear, but in his frequent crossings of the Atlantic he became a messenger between the father in Maryland and his son in England. Other names familiar in the page of Maryland's history are found side by side with that of Charles Carroll of Carrollton in the records of the venerable Temple. There was Lloyd Dulany, the son of Daniel Dulany the brilliant orator, "the Pitt of Maryland," as he was v called,1 and Edmund Jennings, whose father was the Attorney-General. To Edmund Jennings Charles Carroll later addressed many of his spirited and impassioned letters denouncing in stirring words the " odious Stamp Act," those historic documents heralding the approach of the coming revolt. William Paca, Edmund Key, and Henry Kozier swelled the little band of patriot Marylanders, stanch pillars of the Province, in the future struggle for justice and independence. Letter VII.
