...marshes on that side of the river, and finally swam the river above the Brighton abattoir. The hounds used a plank in crossing the river, but lost some time at that place. The hares left their bags in the marsh, where they were finally found by the hounds. The finish in front of Matthews was reached by the hares thirty-one minutes in advance of the first hound. Root, '85, was the first hound in, the rest closely following. G. E. Lowell, '83, was whipper-in. S. Coolidge, '83, and Walker, '84, were the hares...

When abreast of the boat house it was seen that III. was gaining at every stroke. At the finish the positions stood III., IV., I., II., III. winning by a half-length over IV. IV. finished, however, only a quarter-length ahead of I., and I. coming in a full length ahead of II. No time was taken. The rowing of the crews as a rule was very excellent, considering the total lack...
