row at 154 pounds, he must train off % pounds
before he will be in satisfactory condition. The
date of the race is fixed for April Sd.

him with anybody in that country, but he has
no expectation that they will succeed in find

Mr.. Innes tried in every possible way to get
Boyd to row Ross, but the New Brunswicker

inasmuch as Boyd said, after he returned
home from Providence, that Hanlan could
beat the winner of the Providence race easily,
and that the reason Ross won was because he
had distance to row shorter by $50 yards than
Hanlan's course. Ross writes: "Hanlan has

man as Hanlan is supposed to be-
