"Jerome Dunstan "Jerry" Travers (May 19, 1887 – March 29, 1951) was one of the leading amateur golfers of the early 1900s. He won the U.S. Amateur in 1907, 1908, 1912 and 1913, the New Jersey Amateur three times, and the Metropolitan Amateur (New York) five times. He was regarded as one of the finest match play golfers of his time and had a famous rivalry with Walter Travis. He won the 1915 U.S. Open."

"TRAVIS LEADS GOLFERS IN BALTUSROL TOURNEY -- And Travers Is Second, Three Strokes Behind His Ancient Rival.
Walter J. Travis, first: Jerome D Travers, second, tied with John Reid jr. That was how the standing read at the end of the qualifying round of the Metropolitan golf championship tournament at Baltusrol yesterday. The Garden City expert led the field with 159, topping the list for the third time this season, while his rival, Travers, made the two rounds in 163 Travers played as consistently as Travis in the first round, taking two 41's, but needed four 6's, while Travis had but two. In the afternoon the heavy rain just after luncheon was reflected in his card, just as it was in Travis's, and he made 42, as did the former international champion. Coming back, however, Travers struck a pace and tallied 38, totaling 80.
Douglass on the first round was 85, seven more than Travis, owing to his inability to hole putts. Five or six times his ball lipped most exasperatingly. In the afternoon he, too, like Travis and Travers, was 42 out, but after the turn he hit the swiftest clip of the day, 37, beating the first half in 38 of W. C. Shoup, Englewood, in the morning."

Mrs Sheehy-Skeffington was in the USA in early 1917. The news of her safe arrival in New York City was announced in the Irish Citizen on Jan 6th. The Irish Citizen carried regular news of her visit, and she also wrote pieces as "H.S.S."

They (H.S.S. and her 7-year-old son Owen) were still in America as reported in the Irish Citizen on 3rd March. A speech made at Carnegie Hall gets mentioned quite a lot.
