TROTT, Nicholas, jurist, born in England in 1663; died in Charleston, South Carolina, in 1740. After a residence in the Bahamas, of which he was governor, he emigrated to South Carolina about 1690, settling in Charleston. He became speaker of the assembly in 1700, was a councillor in 1703, and subsequently a judge. He was deeply versed in the Latin, Greek, and Hebrew languages and in the principles of jurisprudence, and during nearly forty years was among the chief men in the province. He revised and published "Laws of South Carolina before 1734" (2 vols., Charleston, 1736), and is the author of "Clavis Lingua Sancta" (1719), and " Laws relating to the Church and the Clergy in America" (London, 1721).
