...passing notice, for his absence will be felt not merely by the Crew itself, but in all our rowing interests. The value of Mr. Peabody's work last year, not only in his capacity of a first-rate oarsman, but in his coaching, and in his readiness to lend his experience and time to whatever helped to raise the standard of rowing, cannot be too strongly emphasized; and it is hardly an exaggeration to say that few men have ever done more in a year to improve Harvard in this respect than...

This seems such an excellent project, and the costly cups are prizes so well worth rowing for, that we trust the H. U. B. C. will lend their cooperation, as we have no doubt they will, and further as far as possible the undertaking...
