Article Text: Lewes, Del., July 27, 1909: The Old Mens Club of Lewes, which only accepts members over 70 years of age, had an elaborate "set out" and reception last night at Rehoboth when its president , HENRY C. MAULL, entertained them at his summer cottage. Refreshment were served on the big porch after which a porch dance was given where the old fellows distinguished themselves by dancing as nimbly as if they had just arrived at early manhood. JOHN TRACY, one of the members, furnished fruit, ice cream and cigars to the club while the Lewes Orchester gave their services.
