...desire to protest against the custom of marking up the Library books. I very seldom take out a book but I find it defaced by some would-be commentator; such highly aesthetic notes as "Good," "Admirable," "This is fine," are met on almost every page. The only historical precedent for such action I can think of is the appropriation by the schoolmen of the manuscripts of the classical authors for their own worthless scribblings. But then the schoolmen lived at a time when parchment was scarce and dear; now, when stationery is so cheap, the impropriety of any such mediaeval...

Before the turn, as we have seen, Guild's crew was ahead, and as they went round they were fouled by Page's crew, who were from the moment of the foul out of the race.
