...Club is in a moribund condition. The interest in the object for which it was founded has gradually waned until now the society is on the point of disbanding and selling its property. The present members of the club are greatly averse to this course, and, in order to save the valuable collection of the club, they make the following proposition.

...degree, the boat club had probably less to do with my catastrophe than I flattered myself with imagining. In my evenings it was my delight to go down to the gymnasium and see Blake put up the dumb-bell, and to listen to his discourses upon matters of muscular interest. Somehow or other he always seemed to know more about these things than any of us; and he was inspired by a strenuous missionary spirit, persuasive enough almost to make an oarsman out of a humpback, or a sprint-runner out of a cripple...
