...abreast, so, instead of such a race as our class races last Saturday, they are always "bumping races," as every one who remembers the account of the exciting contest described in "Tom Brown" will recall. The boats are placed in line, - the last a little above Iffley, - with a certain distance between them; at the signal, all start off, each trying to "bump" the boat ahead, before reaching the finish, which is just below Folly Bridge.

He usurped the office of a certain great man, and sent a letter to the mother of an acquaintance advising her to remove him from college.
