Charles Tracy was one of the oldest and truest members of the Century. He aided to develop its special club character in the first decade after its foundation; and its part in its affairs continued to be as important, his counsels as valued, in the thirty-fifth year of his membership as in the first. There has been more than one occasion on which the Club has benefited by that sound judgement and energetic action which marked his professional course with eminence.
