"If you guys ever come up with anything relevant let me know. A good start would be coming clean with the documents referenced in the Evans letter, including the Nov. 10, HDC offer and the Lloyd letter(s) confirming just what tract Merion agreed to buy in November 1910."
IF WE come up with anything relevant?!?
WE'VE come up all the material information that was at MCC you apparently weren't even aware of when you wrote your half-cocked bizarre essay about Wilson being too much the novice to have been able to route and design Merion East and therefore Macdonald must have done it for him even though there was no material evidence to suggest such a thing other than Macdonald and Whigam coming to Ardmore to look at land for a day, the NGLA meeting in early March 1911 which you weren't aware of and speculated must have happened two months before! And of course you had no idea he came back on April 6, 1911, did you? If you did then why didn't you ever mention it?
What did you have anyway when you wrote that essay? Was it just that "Sayer's Scrapbook" that was at the Pennsylvania Historical Society?? Is that IT?
Is THAT why you didn't even have Macdonald's letter and is that why Wayne Morrison had to find it for you??
Are you now telling me you've never even seen the HDC OFFER that was made to the MCC Board on Nov. 10, 1910 that began this entire agreement? Are you telling me you don't even know what it says, AT THIS POINT??
Lloyd's letter(s) confirming what tract Merion agreed to buy in November 1910? Does that at least mean you are aware that I described the HDC offer to MCC in Nickolsen's letter of Nov. 10, 1910 to the board?
Moriarty, the sum total of what YOU STILL DON'T KNOW about the contemporaneous material evidence of MCC and the move to Ardmore and the creation of Merion East is really shocking! Does this all mean you just continue to ignore it or deny it or rationalize it away because you know it all indicates just how misguided that essay and your whole campaign against Merion's history really is? It must be as everyone else who participates on these threads seems to grasp it a lot better than you do.
And you're trying to tell somebody that your essay, "The Missing Faces of Merion" is the most accurate account of that course's history in 1910 and 1911 extant??
What in the world kind of ridiculous joke are you trying to play on this website with an important subject like this one?
The other day, I believe you even mentioned you aren't even aware of what that seminal April 19, 1911 Board meeting was about or what its meeting minutes said.
Why don't you just go back to square one and make a phone call to Merion and MCC and tell them you're interested in the history of Merion East and learning something about it?
Or if you even KNOW, I'd like to see you list for us what it is at this point YOU STILL DON'T KNOW about this signficant club's material history! Are you even aware, at this point, what you failed to research that has now been made part of this from the MCC archives?
