Mr. Charles Frederick Quincy 



director of the .Inicyicaii Forestry .Issocintion and Chairman of the Exeentive Committee. 



ORIGINALLY from Massachusetts, Mr. Quincy has for years had his business location in New York City, while 

 maintaining a summer residence on Squam Lake. New Hampshire. 

 As a personal friend of ex-Governor Guild, deceased, he was invited by Goremor Guild when the latter was 

 president of the American Forestry Association, to become a member of the Board of Directors, with the particular 

 desire on the part of President Guild that Mr, Quincy, with his large experience in finance, should look into the 

 financial side of the Association, its affairs at that time being in a rather precarious condition. 



Mainly under his leadership as chairman of the executive committee of the board, the Association has been lifted 

 from an unsatisfactory financial position to its present basis of increasing prosperity. Our very successful bond plan 

 for the development of our work and the bettering of our magazine was his idea. 



Today we hold in securities twice the amount of our b 3nded indebtedness. The Association has attained a position 

 of national recognition and its work in public service is recognized as great and increasing. 



To Mr. Quincy— to his tact, his faithful devotion to his self-imposed duties in the Association, and to his experi- 

 ence and ability in financial management— the Association owes a great debt for services deeply appreciated and val- 

 ued bv his associates in the work. Henry SturCis Drinker.
