Excerpt from The Clover Club: From a Club Poet's Point of View
All was jollity, feasting, and mirth. Light wantonness and laughter Piping and playing, minstrelsies and masking, Till care fled from us like an idle dream.
On this occasion a serious suggestion was offered after the dinner - which was given, Edward Bedloe, 1224 Walnut Street. Hours IO to that farewell to one of the boys might have in it less of shadow and more of the substance of friendship, - a suggestion that as communion of heart and parley of soul were so seldom enjoyed, a club should be formed to break down the barriers of non-acquaintance and out of acceptable acquaintances make good friends. The suggestion received a double encore; was adopted unanimously; placed in the care of a committee; and grew and grew until it was no longer a suggestion, but an accomplished fact.
