Who Founded the East India Club?
Who founded the East India Club? There has long been an assumption that the East India Company founded the club. This is probably not correct. The exact origins of the East India Club are indistinct. Several versions of our founding exist. A report in The Times of 6 July 1841 refers to the East India Club Rooms at 26 Suffolk Street, off Pall Mall East. It says that the rooms are open for the accommodation of the civil and military officers, of Her Majesty’s and the Hon. East India Company’s service, members of Parliament, and private and professional gentlemen. The clubrooms seem to have been in use for some time because the report also exhorts Major D D Anderson, Madam Fitzgerald, Captain Alfred Lewis, Mr M Farquhar from Canada, Lieutenant Edward Stewart, and another Stewart Esquire to come and pick up their unclaimed letters. This is supported by Sir Arthur Happel, Indian Civil Service (1891 to 1975) who says that the club grew out of a hostel for East India Company servants maintained in London to help them with leave problems. The records of the East India United Services Club date from 1851. An article of July 1853 cited in Foursome in St James’s states that the club as we know it was born at a meeting held at the British Hotel in Cockspur Street in February 1849. The consequence was the acquisition of No 16 St James’s Square as the clubhouse, and the holding of an inaugural dinner there on 1 January 1850. Edward Boehm – who owned the house in 1815 when Major Percy presented the French Eagles to the Prince Regent after the Battle of Waterloo on 21 June – went bankrupt, and a Robert Vyner bought it from him. -

Why This? the Quarterly Newsletter of the University Club of Toronto
The quarterly newsletter of the University Club of Toronto September, 2016 Editor: Donald Rumball As the quartet’s residency coincides with their project to perform all of Beethoven’s string quartets, we are the beneficiaries of an extraordinary learning opportunity. Prior to each concert, the quartet introduces us to the music we are about to hear by playing extracts and illustrating how the piece is put together. They show us how experimental Beethoven was in his time, and how startlingly modern some of his work still sounds. We also get a sense of how the quartet functions as individual voices within the strict discipline of the string quartet idiom, giving credence to a comment often attributed to Goethe, “One hears four intelligent people conversing with one another, and believes one might learn something from their discourse.” Tapestry Opera We will continue to collaborate with Tapestry Opera, who presented two opera evenings last season: one featuring opera Diana Wiley introducing the New Orford String Quartet stars mezzo-soprano Krisztina Szabó and tenor David at a concert held in the lounge Pomeroy, who filled the Library with thrilling sounds in an evening of best-loved opera arias; and the other a working Music programming @uct rehearsal with the full orchestra and cast of a brand new opera that was performed to critical acclaim a week later. By Diana Wiley Over the past few years, we have been building an exceptional Jazz evenings music program, with classical, opera and jazz concerts Part of the fun of the music evenings is that they include performed by world class musicians. -
