He had just turned 30 when he came back East to Providence as superintendent of the old Boston and Worcester Railroad. A Typhoid epidemic broke out among workers living in tents in the rail yards, and when going down and checking the condition of his men, he contracted the disease, and died at age 36. Charles married Ethel Raymond Mason (who would marry brother Edward after Charles' death) and they had 2 children.
