L. E. Fry & Co. was a builder of high-quality motor boats and launches, started in 1893.  They stepped up to build four sub chasers for the Navy in WWI and then went back to their old market, closing in 1924.  Did they ever build anything else?  And can anyone can tell me where in Clayton the yard was?  If you can help, please e-mail me at timcolton@aol.com
