Charles Gardner Rought (16 October 1884 – 31 January 1919) was a British rower who competed in the 1912 Summer Olympics.
==Life==
Rought was born in Surbiton. He became a member of Thames Rowing Club and in 1909 and 1911 was a member of the crew that won the Stewards' Challenge Cup at Henley Royal Regatta. Also in the 1911 regatta, Rought and Bruce Logan dead heated in a heat of Silver Goblets against the eventual winners Julius Beresford and Arthur Cloutte to set a course record which lasted until 1934.〔(Henley Royal Regatta ''When they prayed for rain'' 29 June 2009 )〕 A year later in 1912 Rought and Logan won Silver Goblets.〔(Henley Royal Regatta Results of Final Races 1839-1939 )〕 Rought was a member of the Thames Rowing Club coxed four which won the silver medal for Great Britain rowing at the 1912 Summer Olympics.〔(Sports Reference Olympic Sports - Charles Rought )〕
Rought saw service in the First World War〔(New York Times ''Oarsmen in the War'' 24 January 1915 )〕 in the Royal West Surrey Regiment〔(Supplement to the London Gazette, 4 November 1918 )〕 but spent much of the conflict as a Prisoner of War. Rought died in the Lambeth district aged 34.〔Office for National Statistics - Death indices 1919 (non-official sources give his death as January 1918)〕 The cause of death was a bad oyster. Since Rought was awaiting demobilisation at the time, he technically died on active service.
