Founded in 1897. Included club members such as Truxtun Beale, the renowned writer, diplomat, and philanthropist who sought out—and shot—a magazine editor for defaming his fiancé in 1902; leading local entrepreneurs and community servants such as F. Marion Lazenby; as well as many Maryland politicians, U.S. Naval Academy superintendents, and St. John's College presidents. It features several of its guests, including the Spanish prisoners of war who visited in 1898. And it chronicles the Club's key events, including when it moved from Main Street to 81 Franklin Street in 1908, burned and was burglarized in the 1930s, and "shattered tradition" by inviting women to its quarters in 1940. |
