     High on the roll of the legal profession in Utah appears the name of Caleb
M. Marriott, of Ogden. His entire life has been passed in the west and he has
ever been actuated by the spirit of enterprise and progress which has been the
dominant factor in the upbuilding of this section of the country. He was born at
Marriottsville, Weber county, Utah, November 20, 1880, and is the eldest of the
eleven children of Mr. and Mrs. Moroni S. Marriott, eight of whom are still
living. He was educated in the schools of his native town, in Weber College and
in the Brigham Young College at Logan. Later he pursued higher courses of study
in Weber College and ultimately entered the University of Utah in preparation
for the bar, there winning the LL. B. degree with the class of 1913. In early
life his attention had been given to sheep raising, farming and to the grocery
and commission business in Ogden, in which enterprises he was associated with
his father. He desired, however, to follow a professional rather than a
commercial or agricultural career, and having prepared for the bar, he entered
upon the practice of law and soon won recognition as an able lawyer by reason of
the ability which he displayed in the presentation of his cause before the
courts. In 1901, however, he was sent on a mission to Australia, where he
remained through a part of 1904. Aside from his law studies he has pursued a
course in voice culture covering three years, giving his attention also to
instrumental music and to the study of composition and harmony. Ranking with the
leading musicians of this section of the state, he was for ten years connected
with the Ogden Tabernacle choir. His time and energies at the present time are
mostly concentrated upon his general law practice. He is well versed in all
departments of jurisprudence and his ability is manifest in the many favorable
verdicts which he has won for his clients. He is conscientious in the
performance of all professional duties and the thoroughness with which he
prepares his cases is one of the strong elements in his success. About the time
when he completed his law course he was made a clerk in the juvenile court and
this gave him splendid experience, constituting an important element in his
growing success as a representative of the bar.

     In Evanston, Wyoming, on the 29th of December, 1915, Mr. Marriott was
married to Miss Delia E. Danielson, who was born in Council Bluffs, Iowa, a
daughter of N. P. Danielson. They have become parents of a daughter, Helen
Rosemary, who was born May 29, 1918.

     During the war Mr. Marriott was deeply interested in various war activities
and was especially active in aiding in the questionnaire work. His political
endorsement has always been given to the republican party and he is a well known
club man, having membership in the University Club of Ogden and in the Weber
Club. His religious faith is indicated in his connection with the Ogden
Tabernacle. Along strictly professional lines he has membership with the Weber
County and the Utah State Bar Associations. Along with those qualities essential
to success in the practice of law,— a keen, logical mind plus the business
sense,—he brought to the starting point of his legal career certain rare
qualities, including a gift of oratory and a strong personality. From the
beginning he recognized the necessity for thorough preparation and his
presentation of his cause has ever been comprehensive and exact. Thus possessing
the requisite qualities for success at the bar, Caleb M. Marriott has gained for
himself an enviable position as one of Ogden's prominent attorneys at law.
