Justice Esq/One Hundred and fifty dollars in full for/assessment of March Meeting for purchase/of Territory by Schuylkill Fishing Co/$150 Wm V. Anderson".<br/><br/>In 1732 27 Quakers founded "the Colony in Schuylkill fishing club" acquiring land and fishing rights along the west bank of the river about a mile north of present-day Fairmount which was part of William Penn's treaty with the Lenni-Lenape Indians. Over the years the clubhouse known as "the Castle" has moved several times in response to damming pollution and the arrival of the railroad in 1887. Since 1944 it has been on the adjoining edge of Nicholas Biddle's Andalusia estate.<br/>In 1843 the Schuylkill Fishing Company purchased a plot of land known as "Millmont" where they held their June 1843 meeting despite the Castle's unreadiness. At the March 1844 meeting the Committee in charge of arrangements pertaining to the new property made a report which was then adopted by the members that all members would be assessed $150 due on the first day of May with a ten day grace period or in three installments of $50 for the next three years due each first of May. See A History of the Schuylkill Fishing Company of the State in Schuylkill 1732-1888 pp. 154-158. 1844 was also the year that the club officially incorporated under the name "Schuylkill Fishing Company" with William V. Anderson as one of the Trustees.<br/>George R. Justice 1803-1964 was a "citizen" member of the club from 1843 until 1863 holding various offices over the twenty years of his membership. William V. Anderson 1797-1869 was the Seventh Governor of the club serving from 1849-1854 having joined the club in 1824 and holding other offices before assuming the Governorship. He is listed in this volume as "Coroner." "Schuylkill is the most ancient fishing club that exists and its founders are said to have passed a treaty with the chiefs of the Leni-Lenape or Delaware Indians who granted them the privilege to hunt the woods and fish the waters of the Schuylkill" Westwood & Satchell. Additionally this edition is quite rare: "Almost priceless today never offered except in later editions.the entire Schuylkill story is highly important in American angling history" Bruns.
