Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Canadian Club of Fort William: Annual, 1908 Almost as many places vie with one another for the honor of being the first to evolve the idea of the Canadian Club as contended of old for the distinction of being the birth-place of Homer, But, among all the claimants the City of Hamilton seems to have the first place, the idea of the Canadian Club as it now exists having taken bodily shape under the aegis of Charles E.McCullough. The idea, however, having once taken root, grew with astonishing rapidity until today hardly a city or a large town of importance in the Dominion is without its branch of this institution. For some time prior to November, 1907, tentative steps had been taken by one citizen or another of Fort William to initiate a Canadian Club, but the credit of bringing the matter to a head and taking the first active steps which led to the organization belongs to Sheldon M.Fisher, at that time Secretary of the Industrial Bureau of the city. He sent out the first notices which called a public meeting for November 29th, in the Council Chamber of the City Hall. There were present at that meeting the following gentlemen: Wm. Phillips, E. R. Wayland, J. T. Home, S. C. Young, S. M. Fisher, Dr. Chisholm, A. W, Frodshdm, E. E. Wood, G. H. Williamson, J. F. Robertson, Dr. H. E. Paul, M. H. Braden, G. A. Coslett, Wm. McEdward, H. C. Houston, Dr. C. C. McCullough, Dr. M. B. Dean, C. W. Jarvis, W. J. Hamilton, R. H. Neeland, G. R. Duncan, A. Calhoun, J. E. Swinburne, J. H. Perry, Geo. Grant, A. A. Wilson, M. W. Bridgman, A. Giguere, E. Duhamais, F. W. Young, John Morton, F. E. Gibbs, Dr. R. J. Manion, E. A. Morton, J. G. Taylor, Wh. Laverty, W. A. Armstrong, James Murphy and J. Dyke. Mr. Dyke took the chair and after the object of the meeting had been explained a committee was appointed consisting of H. C. Houston, S. M. Fisher, J. R. Lumby, S. C. Young, Dr. C. C. McCullough, and G. U. Williamson, to draft bylaws and constitution and submit the draft to a full meeting a week later.
