Judges at the Finish--G. B. Morrison '83, O. W. Richardson 3L., H. W. Foote...
...half mile from the finish the first four crews were almost even with a slight advantage to the first Newell and second Weld. Then the second Weld spurted, passed the first Newell, and led by half a length. Fifteen strokes from the finish the first Weld overhauled the first Newell, only being beaten three-quarters of a length by the second Weld. The shells of the first and second crews of both clubs were overlapping at the finish. The third crews finished two lengths of open water behind the second Newell, the third Weld winning by only a few feet...
...very acceptable. The best voices are those of W. Wadsworth '02, who took three subordinate parts, and H. L. Riker '03, who played Paul Revere Hall.

Fry '04 by a strong spurt at the finish. The event, perhaps, would have been better contested if J.G. Willis '02, M. T. Lightner '03 and E. C. Rust '04 had entered as expected. In the two-mile run, W. A. Colwell 1G. ran a very strong race, obtaining first place in 10m. 25 4 5s. J. H. Hall...
