Synopsis
Excerpt from Sixty Years of the Union Boat Club
His historical sketch of the union boat club of Boston was completed in the summer of 1911, sixty years after the foundation of the Club. The His torian got his material from the accounts of the founder, Daniel Webster Rogers, for the first ten years of the Club; of Mr. L. S. King, for the years from 1865 to 1870; and of Mr. W. S. Eaton, for the years from 1874 to 1884; from various documents of the Club log-books and secretaries' records; and from anecdotes related by various members. Because of the multi plicity of sources and vagueness at times of expression or recollection, there are probably some errors in dates and other figures, but the Historian has zealously tried to have them all accurate.
