W. E. Corlett.
William E. Corlett, who died in June 1960 at the age of 94,was an active climber in the Alps and Wales in the nineties and the early years of this century. He was a leading solicitor, business-man and philanthropist in Liverpool. An original member of the Climbers' Club, he presented to them the garage at Helyg. He climbed a great deal with Marshall K. Smith, who endeavoured unsuccessfully to secure Corlett's election to the A. C. Around the turn of the century Corlett was largely responsible for keeping Pen-y-Gwryd and its climbing traditions alive during a period of difficulty before the Lockwoods took charge.
