There is some interesting history to unearth on the position of president of this club, and that Sherman Hoar was later elected as a Democrat to Congress.
Sherman Hoar's father, uncle, cousin and grandfather were prominent Republicans, with the grandfather chairing the convention that led to the founding of the Republican party of Massachusetts.
