pose of discussing and eventually
organizing Swedish club. This
mass meeting was attended by
about 80 Swedes, and at that time
The Swedish Club was founded.
This club had been thought of
long before, as whenever two or
more Swedes congregated. the
most popular topic for discussion
was the forming of some sort of a
Swedish society. Among those
who took the initiative were f. A.
Seaburg manager of the Swedish
weekly "Vastra Posten"), p. Wick
strom, Otto Roseleaf A. T. Lund-
berg, Gust Edenholm, N. B. Mel
son, J. Melin. Jack Raymond, F. n.
