Strike that! George Childs died in 1894 only one year after Anthony John Drexel died. Essentially Drexel bought the Philadelphia Public Ledger for Childs. Drexel's last son was named Anthony George Childs Drexel (seemingly because Childs had no children) and he was a man of most interesting and varied prominence including awesome yachts, houses and other and various things. Today, actor John Travolta lives in Anthony George Childs Drexel's summer mansion in Isleborough (Dark Harbor) Maine. Saint Aloyisious School on Bryn Mawr Avenue is Anthony George Childs Drexel's old estate in Philadelphia.
About a year ago even though I've driven by St. Aloyisious a thousand time, I stopped in there and introduced myself. I asked for the name of the historian of the estate and was told it was Sister Mary Reardon.
So eventually I called her and introduced myself. That's as far as I got before she said: "I know exactly who you are and I read GOLFCLUBATLAS.com too and I can tell you right now that Hugh Wilson designed the East and the West courses and I can tell you that Charlie Blair Macdonald was basically a reprobate schmuck who had very little to do with the course despite what that liar and lying sinner Whigam said about Merion in his eulogy to him in 1939."
She also told me that, in her opinon, MacWood, Moriarty and even Mucci are historical golf architectural idiots and troglodyts with the research and analtyical ability of a second grade Guinea Hen! And who am I to argue with the power and prescience of the Catholic Church?!
