A History Of The Lansing Reform Club PDF Download

Excerpt from The Reform Club, 1836-1886: Its Founders and Architect To trace the history of a Building, Society or Club from its inception to its highest and most successfiil stages, to show the gradual steps by which it rose to eminence, and to recount the illustrious personages who have in each succeeding period of its history, contributed to advance its reputation, is a pleasing and profitable employment; but when the Institution, whose career is thus traced, has been a home and a centre of pleasant intercourse to its Members, it acquires special claims of a personal character. The volume now offered afi'ords no scope for the display of exceptional literary skill, even did I possess such. My sole aim in its production has been to tell the story of the Reform Club with accuracy, and with such brevity as the importance of the material which has been derived from authentic sources exclusively allowed.
