[a letter from Jimmy Williams] I have read your note and inclosed slip concerning A. H. Nichols’ playing in International clubs, and I deem it my duty to explain as follows: At the convention of this Association last February the Alaska, Crystal, Enterprise, Resolute, Alaska of Staten Island, and the Orange Clubs, from new York, Brooklyn and vicinity, were admitted to membership in this Association which membership they all forfeited, except the Alaska of Staten Island, by their failure to pay their dues, as required by Sec. 1 of Art. VI of our constitution. This fact should have been certified to our members, but has never been, partly through negligence and partly because I desired to give any of them tho wished a chance to pay up, and not deprive them of membership simply for non-payment of dues at stipulated times. I have never heard a word from any of these clubs–except the Alaska of Staten Island–since the convention, though I have sent bulletins and letter to all of them.
