AMERICAN YACHTING ;-Rhg?>Y^O
Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2007 with funding from IVIicrosoft Corporation http://www.archive.org/details/americanyachtingOOsteprich THE AMERICAN SPORTSMAN'S LIBRARY EDITED BY CASPAR WHITNEY AMERICAN YACHTING ;-rhg?>y^o AMERICAN YACHTING BY W. p. STEPHENS Of TH£ UNfVERSITY Of NelD gork THE MACMILLAN COMPANY LONDON: MACMILLAN & CO., Ltd. 1904 All rights reserved Copyright, 1904, By the MACMILLAN COMPANY. Set up, electrotyped, and published April, 1904. Norwood Press Smith Co, J. S. Gushing & Co. — Berwick & Norwood^ Mass.f U.S.A. INTRODUCTION In spite of the utilitarian tendencies of the present age, it is fortunately no longer necessary to argue in behalf of sport; even the busiest of busy Americans have at last learned the neces- sity for a certain amount of relaxation and rec- reation, and that the best way to these lies in the pursuit of some form of outdoor sport. While each has its stanch adherents, who pro- claim its superiority to all others, the sport of yachting can perhaps show as much to its credit as any. As a means to perfect physical development, one great point in all sports, it has the advantage of being followed outdoors in the bracing atmos- phere of the sea; and while it involves severe physical labor and at times actual hardships, it fits its devotees to withstand and enjoy both. In the matter of competition, the salt and savor of all sport, yachting opens a wide and varied field. In cruising there is a constant strife 219316 vi Introduction with the elements, and in racing there is the contest of brain and hand against those of equal adversaries. -

Report of the Librarian. 217
1.896.] Report of the Librarian. 217 REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN. ON July 28, 1896, the remainder of our collection of minerals was delivered to Dr. Leonard P. Kinnicutt for the use of tho Worcester Polytechnic Institute, with the under- standino- that what the Institute does not retain will be sent to the Worcester Natural History Society. This is the final act in the distribution authorized by the Council September 24, 1892, which is explained in the librarian's report of April 24, 1895. And here I note the earlier action of the Council regarding the cabinet. On December 31, 1834, it was " voted that a Committee be chosen to report what disposition shall be made of the Printing Press presented by Mr. Thomas"; September 5, 1853, " voted to choose a Committee to consider the best mode of disposing of the Curiosities and Cabinet articles belonging to the Society. Chose Hon. Stephen Salisbury and Hon. Isaac Davis" ; and March 23, 1884, "voted that the Library Committee be authorized to make exchanges of perishable articles, in their discretion, as most for the interest Of the Society." The present revival of interest in Ex Libris matters may serve a good as well as a doubtful purpose. It has led to the securing of Thomas, Haven and Dewey plates for use in the books received from them or bought with their funds. I recommend the addition of a George E. Ellis book-plate, to complete our collection, and that the design be that adopted for those above named. Our founder's library— the basis of our great collection—has added value in the fact that his plate appears in so many of its books. -

This volume contains the same class of facts found in the :Manual for 1866, 1867, and 1868. .The record is continued from the date of the close of the Manual for 1868, to the present time. The votes in Congress during the struggle· which resulted in the passage of the Suffrage or XVth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States, will disclose the contrariety of opinion which prevailed upon this point, and the mode in which an adjustment was reached; while the various votes upon it in the State Legislatures will show the present state of the question of Ratification. The a<Jditional legislation on Reconstruction, with the Executive and l\Iilitary action under it; the conflict on the Tenure-of-Office Act and the Public Credit Act; the votes upon the mode of payment of United States Bonds, Female Suffrage, l\Iinority Representation, Counting the Electoral Votes, &c.; the l\Iessage of the late President, and the Condemnatory Votes -

“Taft Parade, Auto with Admiral Coghlan in Rear, Wm. B. Franklin in Front, New York”
Volume 53 April 2006 “Taft Parade, auto with Admiral Coghlan in rear, Wm. B. Franklin in front, New York” FFRU Volume 53 - Page 1 Cover Photo: William B. Franklin in Taft Parade The automobile in the photo appears to be a Buick Model D from 1907. From the caption, about this being “Wm B. Franklin,” and from the distinguished persons in the vehicle, (caption/superscription: “Taft Parade, auto with Admiral Coghlan in rear, Wm. B. Franklin in front, New York”), I assumed that this must be Gen- eral William Buel Franklin (27 Feb 1823 in York, York County, Pennsylvania; 8 Mar 1903, Hartford, Con- necticut. See FFRU Volume 29)... however by now you probably see the problem: In or before 1903, neither Buick or anyone else was making a car that looked anything like this. The “Taft Parade” is probably the President William Howard Taft inauguration parade in New York City, which occurred in (October?) 1909. There were similar parades in many cities in the United States during this period. I was unable to find the day on which the New York parade was held. So, this William B. Franklin is NOT General William Buel Franklin. The question is, which William B. Franklin is this?

Tentatively, the Pumpkin Regatta (October)and FYC Annual Dinner (November) are scheduled IN CASE we are able to have them. Meanwhile, there is no current racing program but many of the sailors have been taking advantage of the ‘checking’ of the lights, sounds and other visual signals on the Race Hut that have been used for racing in the past. It is of ultimate importance that we know that the signals are in good working order and that the marks noted can be reached by sail. -
