Among the buffs
NOTES TAKEN from starched cuffs which were not supposed to be starched when sent to the hotel laundry: Arrived in Boston on a blustery Sunday night and immediately saw the aftermath of a multiple-alarmer near the Statler.
Monday night, Cocktail hour: Call from Ed Tufts, President of the Box 52 Association, “The Oldest Organized Buffs Club in the Nation" according to the Newsletter. Dinner at the Yankee Fisherman which is a hose length and a pike pole away from one of the two big wharf fires Boston suffered within recent memory. Don’t know which impressed me more: The stop made by the Boston stalwarts or the french fried clams, shrimp, lobster, mackerel, and crab.
