Yes, and I believe the scan of the article was actually posted. I also believe, if memory is not too cloudy, that the raters were listed, among whom were golf luminarieis of the day.
I think we may have had a consensus in that discussion that the real course wasn't even in same location as the modern course called Foulpoint in Madagascar. Perhaps the jungle swallowed it up, as one might expect in such environments.
It should be incumbent upon Forrest to share his research and findings he conducted in preparation of writing his epic novella, as to the routing and origins of Foulepoint. To imagine that the committee led by the mysterious robberbarron rich man in the white panama suit and hat may have had the Good Dr., in for a consult and feasibility and preliminary routing as early as 1910, then turned the construction over to MacGonkey, only to have some revisionist come in and suggest that the first routing was done by CB, is stunning. There are ship manifests showing Dr. A.I McKensey, had a stateroom that he shared with Dame Lady Goodhead indicating a return steam freighter trip to Dover from Mahajanga Madagascar in July 1909. cold that be our man?
Foulepoint... the mystery begs to be solved by "serious researchers".
