This ledger was begun in 1925 by C. E. W. Lewis (G 1920-1925) and was kept by successive Heads of House Water in which they recorded details of rowing events and achievements, those who received the house colours and anything they thought interesting or noteworthy. There are details of events in 1924 at the beginning and some entries include comments on the crews. At the end of the volume is a list of previous Heads of House Water from 1919, as well as lists of which Houses won various rowing events from c. 1922. An insert at the front of the book states that an Old Grantite, R. P. Adler (G 1922-1926), passed the book onto Grant's House.
This series contains material relating to the Old Grantite Club, which was a group for alumnus of Grant's House. Members of the club paid a subscription fee to join which was used to fund social events organsied by the club as well as the production of the 'Grantite Review', the House magazine. The main event organised by the club was the annual dinner, although they also organised golf and cricket matches. This series contains the minute books of the club, lists of its members and publications by the club.
