...fall meeting of the H. A. A. took place Saturday afternoon, and was very largely attended. The weather was all that could be desired, the management perfect, and the events well filled and as a rule closely contested.

This will provide us with a perfect ground, large enough for any and all the sports, and will have - what we have always missed both on Holmes and Jarvis - a fence around...
