...govern all really good sports, thinking that such rules may be of service before long. As the cost of printing the Constitution has been by no means inconsiderable, it is to be hoped that every member of the Association will supply himself with a copy immediately.

The wish now is to enter an eight-oar with coxswain against your full University boat. Since there is no possible arrangement by which a crew from Harvard can be in England before the latter part of July, it is clear that in the event of any challenge, Oxford in using her right to name time...
