Bulletin of the American Institute of Mining Engineers

As an officer of the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway Company he commanded the confidence of the Executives, and conducted his organization with marked ability. Added to his scientific attainments, which were notable, and to his fine sense of organization, which was of a high order, was the unique personal gift of eliciting the complete loyalty, and even the affection, of his subordinates. Tireless, himself, as a worker, he imbued those working with him with a like spirit. Thus he became a power on his road.

Mr. Scarborough was peculiarly fearless in his mental characteristics. Ever reasonable, open to conviction, yet when he saw what seemed to him to be the truth, he maintained his position with the utmost firmness, and with unfailing courtesy. His opinions were sought, and were the guides for men handling important matters. All of this is spoken of the accomplished engineer, the able leader and governor of men, the counsellor in his profession.

We, who knew him as the man, think of him as the large-hearted, generous, loyal and beloved friend. We think of him as the unassuming, open-handed delightful companion, ever speaking of all men only that which was kind, with a soul devoid of malice toward any man.

The last months of his life were clouded by sickness, but even then his spirit never lost its brightness, his courage never failed. As all men should, he met his last earthly summons, and when the message came, made answer without fear.

He was a member of the American Society of Civil Engineers, The American Society of Mechanical Engineers, The American Institute of Mining Engineers, The American Society for Testing Materials and The American Railway Engineering Association.
