According to the NY Times (August 14, 1916), Lees was also involved at Quaker Ridge in 1916 when the links were being "enlarged." Reportedly. the links were being "constructed under the supervision of George Low of Baltusrol, Peter Lees, and A.W. Tillinghast."
The Sun (Dec. 8, 1917) reported that Lees was severing ties with the Lido after four years, and also mentioned this about his other work:
When A.W. Tillinghast laid out the new course at Essex Country Club, Lees was called in to superintend much of the construction work and the way he developed the greens in five weeks time won the admiration of officials. He also did work at Bernardsville, another Tillinghast course, and last fall his services in an advisory capacity were sought by the Garden City Golf Club.
On April 22, 1918, the NY Evening Post reported that GCGC was in fine condition but that the club did not plan on having any tournaments during the war. The article noted . . .
Because of existing conditions, nothing new or radical will be attempted, but the course has been in existence for so long and the turf so well adapted for the purposes, that little labor is required in the upkeep. Practically no changes are noticed even though Frank Bellwood, the club's professional has entered the service. Peter Lees is keeping a general eye on things, while in the shop William Moon, Bellwood's assistant, has taken charge on that end. Incidentally, all business in the professional's shop is being placed to Bellwood's account.
