Interested in athletics and outdoor sports which lead to physical development as well as recreation, he was for four years president of the Deer Park Golf Club, which was merged into the Rosedale Golf Club in 1895. His time and attention, however, are chiefly concentrated upon his chosen life work, in which he has wrought along new lines to the betterment of education in general and St. Margaret's College in particular.
