"Charles B. Evarts, oldest son of Hon. William Maxwell Evarts and Helen (Wardner) Evarts, died suddenly of heart failure at his home in Windsor, Thursday morning. Deceased was a sophomore in the Yale college class of 1866 before enlisting February 15, 1864, at New York City. He didn't resume studies after the war. He was mustered in as private, Company K in the famous 1st New York Cavalry (Lincoln cavalry) , February 15, 1864, to serve three years. He was discharged for disability from injuries received in the field January 23, 1865, at United States hospital, New York City. He never fully recovered from a consequent illness.

For many years he had the supervision of his father's large landed property in Windsor ; but of late had laid aside most of business cares. He was about 47 years of age, and will be missed by many deeply attached to him by the strong bonds of friendship. It is understood that the funeral services will be held in St. Paul's church, Sunday afternoon with interment in Ascutney cemetery."

Part of his work shortly after the Civil War was to build the dike for Lake Runnemede, known locally as Evarts Pond. It is a spring fed oxbow shaped lake.
