In 1872 he was elected by the Board of Supervisors to the position of Clerk, remaining in that capacity seventeen years altogether, and resigning when he was chosen Clerk of the Senate. He was elected to this responsible position in
1892, and served for two years, in the sessions of '92 and '93. The duties of the office were very arduous, but were always well and faithfully performed. The Clerk is the principal administrative officer of the Senate, and it was his duty to see that all orders relating to the daily business of the body were executed. On him also devolved the duty of defining and directing the work of his assist-ants, who numbered about thirty. That his services were appreciated, the following resolution will testify:
"Resolved, That the thanks of the Senators are due, and are hereby tendered, to Charles T. Dunning, Clerk of this body, for the able and conscientious manner in which he has performed his duties, and for the uniform courtesy which he has displayed throughout the session." It is needless to say the resolution was adopted unanimously. December 6, 1893, he was appointed a member of the Board of Commissioners of Appraisal, receiving his appointment from Judge Dykeman, of the Supreme Court, and entering immediately upon his duties.
The marriage of our subject occurred in Goshen and united him with Miss Georgia Thompson, a daughter of the late Martin L. Thompson, who was a prominent hotelman of this village. Her death occurred in 1888. Mr. Dunning's residence is on Murray Avenue and is a beautiful and comfortable home. In politics he is a Democrat and has been a member of the Democratic County Committee of Orange County for some years, serving as its Chairman in 1887-88.
