he won quite handily from james
Thompson, of Philadelphia, and 5.
Hagen did not have on his card
until he reached the eleventh hole In
the afternoon.
r. &. Mcdonald and James Donald
son furnished the best match Of the
day. At no time was there more than
hole separating the pair from the
time they left the first tee until the
match came to the thirty-third hole,
where Donaldson put his second into
the brook and finally picked up after
attempting TO play it ont of the wster
Mcdonald became up at this point,
and WIS practically handed the match
on the next hole when the Chicago
player missed short putt for half.
