In January 1931, Charles was appointed warden of the Delaware County Prison at Media. A group of his friends organized a testimonial dinner for him in February at the Four Horseman Club in Marple Township. Only a month later, however, he was stricken with an illness which sent him to Hahnemann Hospital in Philadelphia. His condition fluctuated for a few months but he never recovered and died that summer of "a complication of maladies."
He was buried in July 1931 in the Chester Rural Cemetery.
