PREFACE.
A record of Eton boat lists and races which should be accessible to all
was long felt to be wanted. There are no written or printed lists which
can be obtained further back than 1835, and such names as have been
obtained prior to that year have been furnished me hy old boating men.
The Introduction is almost entirely composed from letters which I have
received, and I have to thank my correspondents for their care in answer-
ing my enquiries and their trouble in furnishing me with so many
interesting facts.
The Eton manuscripts consist of the Boating Books kept by the
Captain of the Boats, those belonging to the Eev. E. E. Durnford's
and Mr. Evans' Houses, and the College Aquatic Eegister. I sincerely
hope that these books will be kept up for all future years, as they are
invaluable in putting together this little work. The Eton College
Chronicle is also most useful, but it should not be allowed to take
the place of the Boating Books. I have also made great use of Mr. H. E.
C. Stapylton's Mon School Lists in correcting the spelling of names and
in verifying dates. So many corrections have also been sent me that I
sincerely trust very few, if any, errors will occur in the Second Edition.

INTRODUCTION.
The boating records of Eton go back no further than the year 1825 ;
the few facts such as some names of men who belonged to boats previously
and those of some Captains and second Captains of the boats have been
gathered from the memory of old Etonians who were their contemporaries
in the school. And yet as far back as the oldest Etonians can remei:nher
there were Long Boats in existence with their regular crews, captaSis,
and steerers, and the river was frequented both for rowing and fishino-.
We regret that the names of the distinguished oars of older days
have not been preserved and that we do not possess any accounts of the
races they rowed.
Until comparatively of late years the river was out of bounds, and
considerable difficulty Avas encountered in getting to and from the Brocas
by the necessity of all but the Sixth Eorm being obliged to shirk the
Masters, and of all the Lower Boys having lo shirk the Sixth Form.
However, the river itself was not forbidden ; it was simply ignored. On
the morning of the 4th of June, 1822, Dr. Keate sent for the then Captain
of the Boats, and said to him, " The boys are often very noisy on this
evening and late for Lock-up. Foic know I know nothing I But I
have heard you are in a position of authority and know a great deal :
so I hope you will endeavour not to be late to-night, and do your best
to prevent disorder. Lock-up time will be twenty minutes later than
" usual :* it is your customary privilege." As it turned out they were
not more than an hour late on that day, and there was not quite so much
of a row as usual; and, in consequence, Dr. Keate expressed his satis-
faction, but still professed his ignorance of what had really occurred.
None of the Masters went near the river on the 4th of June or Election
Saturday, and the fact of Fireworks, and the whole School being late for
Lock-up, was winked at on these occasions. Possibly they came incoonito
to see the fireworks.
It is also an interesting fact that the first race honoured by the pres-
ence of a Head Master was the Pulling Sweepstakes in 1847, when Dr.
Hawtrey Avas rowed in a boat by Eev. H. Dupuis and Mr. Evans. It
was thought a most liberal concession of Dr. Goodford when, on the 1st
of March, 1860, at the request of the Captain of the Boats, he allowed
the Boats to go to the Brocas without shirking, though in the followino-
half that absurd custom was abolished for all the School. ' ^
In the processions on all great days, the Monarch, with ten oars, was
always the head boat ; and the Stroke of the Monarch was Captain of the
Boats. .In 1811 there was a Ten-oar and three boats with eio-ht oars :
(1) Monarch, ten-oar, (2) Dreadnought, (3) Defiance, and (4) Rivals.
Besides these, there were the Mars and the Mercury which were six-oared
boats. In 1814 the list was (1) Monarch, ten-oar, (2) Dreadnought,
(8) Mars, {4^) Hibernia, (5) Defiance, eight oars each, {Q) Rivals, six-oar.
vi
INTRODUCTION.
With the exception of the Monarch and the Dreadnought each of the
boats in those days had a waterman to pull Stroke and drill the crew.
The practice of having a waterman to each of the Lower Boats continued
until 1828 when it was abolished, and, after that, the Captain of each
crew rowed the Stroke oar. At the time, this was thought a great reform,
for the waterman frequently rowed a bad Stroke, and the crew were
obliged to subscribe to pay for his day's work, beer, and clothes. Never-
theless, some old Etonians will remember that they owed their earliest
insffuction in rowing to the famous Jack Hall, the brother of the Usher-
man whose portrait is so well known, and to Old Paddle " or Padool,"
as a man named Brads used to be called.
About 1812 or 1813 the original Monarch was driven from her moor-
ings at Charley Carter's boat posts by a barge and squashed against old
Windsor bridge and was replaced by a much better ten-oared boat. At
that time the boats were usually moored and the crews embarked by the
Brocas meadow above where the boat-houses now are, but on the 4th of
June and Election Saturday the crews used to land at Carter's, the boat-
builder. Carter was a one-armed man, and his boat-house was close to
Windsor bridge.
The number of the Boats as well as their names have changed in
different years. The Upper Boats were formerly manned by the Sixth
and Fifth Eorms exclusively, and the Lower Boats by mixed crews, in-
dependently of their position in the School ; for, as the authorities were
ignorant of the existence of boating, no check was put upon those who
belonged to the Boats, nor were they prohibited to " Non-Nants." It
was in 1839 that ''Passing" was instituted and a master appointed to
keep some sort of surveillance over what was done on the river. A fatal
accident was the immediate cause of this institution ; how often have the
greatest calamities been productive of the greatest good to mankind ! In
the summer half of that year a boy named Montague, who was a pupil of
Eev. W. A. Carter, was swept out of his boat by a barge-rope just above
Windsor bridge and was drowned. His tablet is in the College Chapel.
This led the present Bishop of Lichfield (Dr. Selwyn), then a private
tutor, and Mr. William Evans to force on the Head Master (Dr. Hawtreyj
freedom for boating, and as a condition the necessity of a "pass" in
swimming. Since that time, and humanly speaking from that regulation,
there has been no fatal accident to boys on the river. Before that it was
a frequent occurrence.
Formerly the second Captains of the Boats used frequently to row nine
in the Monarch. Thus in 1816 Bridgman-Simpson was taken ill in the
summer half and was succeeded by Mr. Bligh* who was then nine in the
ten-oar, and he stepped into the place of stroke as a matter of course.
Bligh was at that time Captain of the Oppidans, and had been for two
years in the Cricket Eleven (of which game he was fonder than of rowing)
and three years in the Football Eleven, and thus attained a position never
before or since occupied by any other Eton fellow.
* The Hon. John Duncan Bligh, K. Q. B, died in 1872. I have a letter from
him narrating these facts.
INTRODUCTION.
vii
The name of the Captains who succeeded Bligh, as well as the few
names belonging to the years before 1825, have been obtained from their
contemporaries in the School; and, if any mistakes have been made, it
must be borne in mind that fifty years, more or less, have passed away
and left but few survivors to tell the tale. Three names of famous oars
who belonged to the boats in 1817 are mentioned by Mackworth Praed
in his poem entitled " Surly Hall," which was first published in the
Etonian. There may have been giants in those days, though every old
Etonian is ready to say that things now are not as they were formerly,
and that the " Swells " of his day surpassed those of the present.
" Yon think the boats well-manned this year !
To yon they may perhaps appear !
I, who have seen those frames of steel,
TucKPiELD, and Dixon, and Bulteel,
Can swear — no matter what I swear —
Only things are not as they were !"
The names of the Eight of 1820 w^ho ought to have rowed in the
match against Westminster which was forbidden, were cut in the Head
Master's desk in Uppei School. On search being made for them the
following eleven names, cut at one time and by the same hand, were
found : —
1820.
Dunlo
T. Ashley
Pnxley
Heneage
W. 0. Smith
H. Grove
Of these Grove was steerer, and possibly the two extra names were
choices out.
There is also a boat's crew of 1821 which has been preserved to us in
tlie same way, and though many generations of Fourth Forms may have
seen it, it has probably passed unnoticed by them all. It is that of the
Nelson, then the second boat, and the names are cut on the middle desk
on the left-hand side of Upper School, looking towards the Head Master's
room. They are as follows : —
J. A. Kinglake, Captain T. J. Knowlys
Lord Fincastle Mr. Trench
J. J. Marsham J. Hargreaves
H. Fane C. Delme
C. D. Griffiths, 8teerer
It is the 4th of June of this year that Praed refers to in " Surly Hall
and he thus describes the arrival of the boats : —
" And look ! — they land, those gallant crews,
With their jackets light, and their bellying trews ;
And Ashley walks applauded by,
With a world's talent in his eye ;

INTRODUCTION.
And KiNGLAKE, dear to poetry,
And dearer to his friends ;
Hibernian Egberts, you are there,
With that unthinking merry stare
Which still its influence lends
To make us drown our devils blue,
In laug'hing at ourselves — and you !
Still I could lengthen out the tale
And sing Sir Thomas with his Ale
To all that like to read ;
Still I could choose to linger long,
Where Friendship bids the willing song
Flow^ out for honest Meade."
Asliley was Captain of the Boats ; tlie Second Captain was Kinglake,*
wlio rowed Stroke of the Nelson, and whose crew appears above ; and
Koberts was Captain of the Hihernia which was then manned by Irish
fellows. Formerly the unfortunate crews had to wear bine jackets with
embroidered anchors on the outside arm and pull up to Surly with the
jackets on. This was abolished in 1828 and each crew then rowed in
shirts of different checks. Previous to 1814 all the rowers in each boat
had a complete fancy dress appropriate to each boat — such as High-
landers, Galley-slaves, Swiss peasants — and consequently the scene was
most picturesque. The two first boats adopted the sailors dress before
the other. But in 1784 fancy dresses were unknown.
The boating* always began about the first of March, or as soon as the
floods began to subside, but before they subsided entirely and the river
became clear. From then till Easter was the best time for rowing. It
was the time when there w^as most rivalry between the boats, and the
practice of bumping one another was most of the amusement. In old
times they rowed to Surly, as a rule drank a glass of rum or shrub and
water and played a game of skittles; after half an hour ''oars" were
called by tlie Captain of the Boats and they then rowed down to the
Brocas.
Until the Westminster matches were made there was no regular Eiglit
of the School ; there was a Four chosen usually but they had no regular
matches. About the year 1820 an endeavour was made to get up a race
against Westminster, and both Schools selected a crew to represent them.
But, on the eve of the day appointed, the authorities put a stop to the
match by threatening to expel any boys who should row ; and it was not
until 1829 that the first great contest came off. The races however that
were rowed between the boys themselves were sufficient to excite the
keenest struggles, and were looked forward to with the greatest interest.
The great race of old days was Upper Sixes, and was rowed from the
Brocas up to Surly Hall and back, before the Lock was made, and in
after-times round " Eushes." This will now, though it was revived in a
race between the Six and the Eight in 1854, be regarded as an impossible
trial of strength and endurance. But now-a-days speed is everything ;

the boats are lighter, but a faster stroke is rowed. Even in the old heavy
boats before 1825 the Eton stroke was faster than that of other crews on
the Thames. We are told by Col. Morgan Clifford, who was Captain of the
Boats in 1824, that Staniforth introduced the quick stroke at Oxford and
got up the Christ Church boat to the top of the river ; and he contrasts
it with the slow Westminster stroke.
Before 1830 there were very few races rowed compared with later years,
but whenever the boats rowed to Surly they used to try and bump one
another which kept up the esprit de corps among them. The ten-oar
used to be often hard pressed by the first eight which had a strong picked
crew^ whilst the ten had, as now, several courtesy " oars who were often
very inefficient. The four best oars were in general placed two in each of
the first boats. In 1824 on the 4th of June Mr. Canning was sitter in
the ten and he was in great excitement at the danger of being bumped as
the boats rowed through Windsor bridge.
In all the races that were rowed between Sixes or Eights round a
turning-point there was more or less bumping, but it is much to be re-
gretted that no rules can be found, if there were any, which regulated
what amount of bumping or jostling was allowed. It seems, from a note
to one of the races, that there were some regulations as to the sides of
the river to be kept ; but the great point was for the boat, which was left
behind at first, to catch its opponent at the turning-point ; and then a
fight resulted, at the end of which one boat or the other was frequently
disabled. The account of the race between Eton and Westminster in
1837, when " the Etonians made a strong pull in the hope of catching
" their opponents on the quarter, and when the Westminsters would-
have shipped some water had not young Lord Somerton borne the Haidee
" up by leaning over on the opposite side," seems to indicate a desire
on both sides to fight it out by fair or foul means, but any how to get in
first. In another of these races a foul lasted five or six minutes, and
ended in one of the boats having her rudder struck off, and being turned
completely round.
But the times are changed now : fouling is not allowed, and skill,
obtained by the scientific coaching of oarsmen into "form," is added to
the strength and pluck of old days. The boats of the present day are of
a very different build from those even of a few years ago ; and how dif-
ferent from the ancient specimens with a gangway down the middle which
now convey the bands to Surly Hall on the 4th of June ! It is the im-
provement in boat building chiefly which has changed the stroke from a
long steady pull to a sharp "smite " at the beginning, but the straight
arms, straight back, and shoulders down are principles as old as any
eight oared race on record. It was impossible in the tub eights to
catch the begiuning " only, the stroke had to be rowed through ; and
yet as long ago as 1836 it was said of the Oxford and Cambridge crews
that rowed at Putney, " their style of rowing was nothing like that of the
crack men of the Thames, they invariably begin to row where the

INTRODUCTION.
" London men leave off and appear to have no notion of bending forwards."
It was the London watermen who effected a change in them before the
race. The boats in which the universities raced in 1839 were built of
oak and measured 5 2 feet long. The Oxford boat was painted white and
blue and pricked with gold, having the arms of tke university emblazoned
on the rudder. The first outriggers were used in that annual contest in
1846 and they were built in streaks. The streaks soon gave way to the
smooth skins, but it was not until 1857 that both university crews rowed
in the present style of boats without keels and with round loomed oars.
To those who have now learned to row on sliding seats it should be
interesting to hear that the first outrigger was imported to Eton in 1852,
and so late as 1860 the Victory was the only one in regular use. Now the
" clincker-built " boat is thought heavy enough, but down to 1861 most
of the practice was done in boats which are now extinct, with rowlocks in
the gun- wale, and a half outrigger for the Stroke and the Bow oars. It
was in such boats that the practice originated for the crews to stand up
as they passed the Fireworks o"q the eyot on the 4th of June, and in
thenj they could hold up their oars on end and cheer with the utmost
safety. Bat these changes have been brought about by improvements in
machinery, and only show that the art of boat-building has progressed
with other modern inventions. They have had no effect on customs,
and the races of 1875 are for the most part those of twenty years ago
repeated, with different combatants and different winners. The Sculling
and the Pulling, which were first School Sweepstakes and were rowed
for the money collected, still start from the same place and turn at the
same point ; and though, in the latter, Steerers are not allowed, yet these
two races are practically the same as those we find recorded for the first
time in 1830.
There was a match about 1817 between a four of Mr. Carter's house
and four of the professional watermen. It caused great excitement at the
time, and to every one's surprise the boys won ; but the watermen were
too heavy for their boat which was three or four inches too deep in the
water. There were also matches between the houses occasionally as far
back as the memory of the oldest men goes, but the great race for
House Fours was not instituted as an annual contest until 1856 when
the magnificent Challenge Cup was purchased by Mr. Stanley, the then
Captain of the Oppidans, by means of a subscription which was chiefly
raised by his exertions. Another very old race was the Double Sculling
but we have no records of it until 1831. There used also to be both
Single and Double Punting, but punting was forbidden in 1831 owing to
the punts being made use of for lounging about under the willows. The
races between Dames and Tutors and Two Sides of College used to excite
the greatest interest, and every dry as well as wet-bob always came to see
them. There was a race between Two Sides of College in 1823 ; but
these have now been given up and the interest has subsided chiefly on
account of the increase of houses on the North Side, so that there is not

any fair division and the Dames houses are ahnost all kept by mathe-
matical or other masters.
None of the other races require any particular notice, and it will be
found that no attempt has been made hereafter to describe any of them,
with the exception of those between Eton and Westminster. In the early
manuscript records no descriptions exist, and it is thought that little im-
portance attaches to the fact that one boat got the lead at starting ; that
the Windsor Side boat lost by not getting round Upper Hope first ; or
that the turn at Bargeman's i3ush decided a race in favour of one or the
other ; but that it is sufficient to give the list of the competing crews,
and the names of the winners. Descriptions indeed of races now-a-days
would be unintelligible to Etonians who only knew the river before the
Boveney Locks were made. We are informed by Sir William Miles, who
rowed in the boats in 1813, that the whole face of the river has been
altered by the Locks, and that barring the two Hopes he would scarcely
recognise what used to be the salient points. The Eights often practised
rowing to Maidenhead Bridge and back, and if we remember that this
was done in the old heavy boats, we may suppose there was not so much
stream then as there is now.
The Appendix contains a summary of the winners of the most im-
portant races, with the times, so far as they can be obtained, in which
some of them were rowed. This reference to the times may be useful to
Wet-bobs," and will no doubt excite a strong desire in those who will
contend in the future contests for the Sculling and Pulling to eclipse the
doings of their predecessors. But the times will vary with the state of
the river, and unfortunately no notes have been made of the height of the
stream when they were rowed. It would be well if a post were fixed at
one of the rafts with feet and inches marked on it, so that in future it
might be referred to in some such way as this — Time of the race
" 19mins. 40 sees., height of the river, — feet, — inches," and in this
way comparisons could be drawn between the results of successive years.
One of the most note^vorthy things in these boating accounts is the
increase in the number of races which are now rowed. The popularity of
the river compared with that of the playing-fields has varied at times
with the successes obtained by the Eleven and the Eight respectively. At
one time when Harrow had won many successive matches and the general
standard of cricket was at rather a low^ ebb, the river swarmed with the
tubs and funnies of the small boys, and Locks were filled tw^o or three
times over with boats going to Surly every long after-four. But of late
years " Sixpenny " has been more attractive to those who have only half
decided whether they are most fitted for boating, cricket, or neither. A
writer in the^^o;^ College Chronicle says that such boys need never be anxious
about the prospects of their recreation through life. But somehow or other
plenty of names at last are put down for the boats every February, and
an additional Eight has been kept on ever since 1869. It was said at
one time that the chief attractions for the boats were the Check Nights,
xii
INTRODUCTION.
but it is certain that since their abolition there lias been no falling off in
boating ; on the contrary, we find that new races have sprung into exist-
ence : there are Junior Pairs and Junior Sculls, and the entries for all
the races are as numerous as ever. Then there is a Steerers' Sculling
race, and Trial Eights instead of Dames v. Tutors, in the Easter Half.
Upper Eights has revived its interest by a Challenge Cup being rowed
for, and the crews go into regular practice for some time previous to the
race.
Above all, there is the Henley Eegatta. The training of the Eight is
daily watched with the greatest interest by dozens of fellows, who run
along the bank and speculate as to who will be the new Choices. What
improvements may be seen in the tone and vigour which this race has
inspired into the Boats will best be judged of by those who have watched
the river before and since leave was given them to row there. It was
said by the Head Master,* when his permission was asked for the Eight
to go to Henley, that it was useless for boys to contend with University
men ; but it was urged in answer that they could but try, and that row-
ing would so improve in the School, that some day they might be suc-
cessful. The experiment has proved the truth of the prophecy. Eton
has won the Ladies' Plate several times ; has beaten many College crews ;
and has rowed the Henley course in 7mins. ISsecs. the fastest time on
record. That a most decided improvement has appeared in the style of
rowing all through the boats, no practised oarsman can fail to perceive ;
but it will never be forgotten that the Boats have owed this almost en-
tirely to the kind assistance of the Rev. Edmond Warre, who has devoted so
much energy to coaching the crews, whose name will always be associated
with this period in the boating annals of Eton, and who will be for ever
remembered with affection by his grateful pupils.
Some old Etonians will be surprised to find a notice of an institution
which was originated in 1861, viz. the Boating Bill. Eor many years
the " Dry-bobs " of Upper Club had been allowed the exclusive privilege
of getting leave not to attend six o'clock absence on Holidays and Half-
Holidays, by sending to the Head Master a Bill of their nanies. It was
said that this was given to them to place them on an equality with the
Boats, for the licence given to the latter to hold their Check Nights. f
But when these were given up the Boats claimed a Boating Bill as com-
pensation, and it was accorded to them on certain conditions, which arc
set out on page 125. We have been informed that, in consequence, the
excursions to Maidenhead, Cliefden, and Cookham in the Summer Half
are duly appreciated, and that frequent applications are made for "the
Bills.
With the exception of the Westminster race, but few matches were
rowed by the Eight against any antagonists with whom they were equally
matched, until they were permitted to compete at Henley Regatta for the
* Dr. Goodford.
t Under the year 1861 a Note will be found explaining what Check Nights
were, for the benefit of the present generation of Eton Boys. See p. 124.

Ladies' P^te and tlie Grand Challenge Cup. It will be seen that now
and then a College crew came down from one of the Universities to row
them, but as they did not go into any training these must be looked upon
only as scratch races. The Westminster race, as an annual match, was
put an end to by the authorities after 1847, and though it was revived
again in 1860, Eton won so easily on that and on three subsequent
occasions, that the Westminsters have wisely ceased to send any more
challenges. But in 1858 a match was made with Eadley School to be
rowed over the Henley course, and the greatest interest was excited by
the reports which were spread about of the formidable strength of their
Eight. Nobody knew where or what Eadley was ; but when it was
rumoured that they had defeated some College crews at Oxford, and were
under the tuition of a well-known oarsman, great anxiety prevailed as to
the result of the race. The Eton crew of the year before was one of the
heaviest and strongest that had been known in the School, but most of
the best oars had left, and the Eight selected to row were comparatively
light weights. However, great faith was reposed in the Captain of the
Boats, who was regarded as one of the most perfect oars ever seen, and
he had won so many of the races that he was considered invincible. A
very close race was eventually rowed, and the fear of being beaten by an
inferior antagonist was dispelled.
It may always need the stimulus of a great School race to keep up
the standard of rowing. Certainly the Henley races have been a great
means of substituting good hard rowing and practising for races for the
abominable lounging under willow bushes or beer drinking at Surly Hall.
Indeed we may confidently assert that it is the Boats principally which
keep up the high moral tone of the School, and it is the Boats which, in
the Summer Half at least, make athleticism more favoured than epicurean
habits. We regret to observe that the Eton Society on the 2nd of March,
lS14i, decided that the increasing luxury of Public Schools is not likely
to prove prejudicial," but it was to his honour that the Captain of the
Boats opened the debate with a speech opposed to that decision, and gave
it as his opinion that things have gone too far and the present luxury
produces idleness and effeminacy.
The last race at Henley, in which Eton very nearly beat the Londoners,
after having disposed of two College crews, shews no degeneracy in
strength or skill ; and although it so happens that the last University
crews have not contained so many Eton men as heretofore, we can only
attribute this to accidental causes ; so long as the best Eton oars go to
the Universities we may depend on seeing some of their names in the
crews at Putney. We do not anticipate that luxurious or expensive
habits will prevent the efiiciency of the crews, or take off from the num-
bers of boating men. The honour of rowing in the Eight whilst there
are likely to be powerful antagonists to contend against, the glory of
winning the races rowed among themselves and the dignity which success
gives in any game or art of which one is fond, will all make Eton boys
xiv
INTRODUCTION.
what they have always been. It is certain that in these races at Henley
Eegatta, Eton must put forth her strength, and though it cannot be ex-
pected that her crews wdl always receive the help given to them during
the last few years, yet it is to be hoped that the true knowledge of the art
of rowing has become so diffused through the Boats that it will never be
eradicated ; and that if ever left to themselves, future Captains will be
able to train up their crews year-after-year, not inferior to those which
have preceded them, and from time-to-time bring home the glorious
trophies of their victories.
In noticing the principal events connected with the Boats, it should not
be out of place to call to mind that the noble game of Cricket has not
been neglected by them. That small portion of the playing-fields allotted
to " Aquatics " has witnessed almost as keenly contested matches as the
river. The Ten-oar has often contained distinguished cricketers and the
Boats have sometimes been able to make up Elevens capable of holding
their own against very competent antagonists. It was not an unusual
thing to have matches between the Boats and Lower Club ; and twice, viz.
in 1855 and 1860, the Boats were victorious. In the match of 1855 the
Avell-known Joby was umpire, and at the finish he was run across to the
river and kicked into the water over the oziers, on account of some sup-
posed defect in his judgment. The year 1860 was also remarkable for a
tent match played between the Boats and the Officers of the Blues. It
poured with rain the wdiole day, but the Officers prevailed on the Head
Master not to put a stop to the match, which ended eventually in their
defeat.
The Captain of the Boats used to play ex officio in the annual cricket
match between the Collegers and Oppidans.
The pages which follow will recall to old Etonians many a glorious
victory, and many a sad, though no inglorious, defeat. And the present
boys will find, that, though the races of their predecessors were rowed in
boats of a different build from their own, they were not less exciting
because they were slow, and that the late successes at Henley Regatta are
not the only triumphs the Eights have achieved for the School.

SONG FOR THE FOUKTH OF JUNE.
I.
Skirting past " the bushes "
Euffling over the weeds,
Where lock-stream gushes,
Where the cygnet feeds, —
Let us see how the wine glass flushes
At supper on Boveney meads.
CHOEUS.
Jolly boating weather,
And a hay-harvest breeze,
Blade on the feather,
Shade off the trees ;
Swing, swing together.
With your backs between your knees.
II.
Thanks to the bounteous sitter,
Who sat not at all on his seat :
Down with the beer that's bitter.
Up with the wine that's sweet ;
And Oh ! that some generous ' critter '
Would give us more ducks to eat.
III.
Qarving with elbow nudges
Lobsters we throw behind ;
Vinegar nobody grudges,
Little boys drink it blind.
Sober as so many judges.
Well give you a bit of our mind.
XX
THE ETON BOATING BOOK.
Dreadnouglit, Britannia, Thetis,
Victor}^, Third Upper, Ten,
And the " Eight " poor souls ! whose meat is
Hard steak and a harder hen ;
And the end of our long-boat fleet is
Defiance — (to Westminster men !)
V,
Kugby may be more clever
Harrow may make more row ;
But we'll row for ever
Steady from stroke to bow ;
And nothing in life shall sever
The charm that is round us now.
VI.
Others will fill our places,
Drest in the old light blue ;
We'll recollect our races
We'll to the flag prove true ;
And youth will be still in our faces
When we cheer for an Eton crew.
VII.
Twenty years hence this weather
May tempt us from ofiice stools ;
We may be slow on the feather
And seem to the boys old fools ;
But we'll still swing together
And swear by the best of schools.

ETON V. WESTMINSTEE, (July 27th, 1829.)
The first match rowed by the two Schools took place on Monday,
July 27th, and the following is the account as published at the time in
Bell's Life : — " Both parties had been sometime in active training — the
Eton gentlemen in the Britannia, built by Archer of Lambeth, Jind the
Westminster scholars in tlie new Eight, which "was built by Searle for
the Cantabs in their late match with the Oxonians at Henley. Heavy
betting took place in favour of the Westminster gentlemen previous to
the start, and the interest which this juvenile contest excited among the
numerous relatives and friends of the contending parties was, perhaps,
never surpassed on any similar occasion. The Etonians and their friends
arrived at Putney in a commodious carriage^ with four handsome bays;
6
THE ETON BOATING BOOK.
the Westminstei scholars in an open barouche, with four greys. Both
parties appeared full of confidence. Six o'clock was the hour named for
the start to take place from Putney Bridge, to row through Hammer-
smith Bridge and down through the centre-arch of Putney Bridge ; but
it was some time after that hour before the parties took their stations.
It was generally known that Brumwell, of Yauxhall, was to steer the
Westminsters ; but nearly up to the period of starting, the amateurs
were kept in ignorance as to who was to " take the lines " of the Britannia,
and some anxious enquiries were the consequence with those who were
desirous of sporting their money on the result. The Etonians pulled up
to bridge in broad blue-striped Guernsey frocks and dark straw hats,
with blue ribbon — true sailor fashion — with the celebrated Mr. T. Honey,
of Lambeth, as coxswain. This latter circumstance had a material effect
on the betting, for it was well known that no individual could be ap-
pointed to the station, who possessed more scientific knowledge in
" handling the lines " than Mr. Honey. The Westminster scholars
appeared at the bridge in very neat trim, the whole wearing white shirts
and straw hats, Brumwell acting as steerer. The toss for station having
been won by the Etonians, Mr. Honey took his place from a pier on the
Middlesex side. On the signal being given, they went away in style,
accompaided along the whole line of the towing-path by between forty
and fifty gentlemen on horseback, the majority of whom wore a piece of
blue ribbon in a button-hole of their coats. The Westminster gentlemen
went ahead at starting by about a boat's length, and continued the lead
up the river for nearly half a mile, when the Etonians came opposite
their opponents, and by some well-timed exertions on the part of the
rowers, and a degree of science on that of the coxswain, the Britannia
was brought out in a slanting direction ; and notwithstanding the skill
displayed by Brumwell, who nearly succeeded in bringing the nose of his
boat on the quarter of that of the opposite party, as she was shooting by,
the Eton gentlemen went well ahead, and maintained it throughout the
distance, gallantly winning by above a quarter of a mile." The crews
were : —

* The Boats seem always to have been divided into Upper and Lower Boats,
as there are accounts of the race between Lower Sixes and Upper Sixes, the
latter from the year 1828 These Sixes were chosen by the Captains of the
Boats, who tossed for first choices ; and the order in which they were
chosen indicated the " Choices ;" whereupon, the highest Choice who stayed
till next year, became 'Captain of the Boats. In case any of the crew should
be unable to row in the race, there were "Choices out;" that is, in the case
of Sixes, 13th, 16th, &c. This race has since changed into Upper and Lower
Eights, but it was the origin of Choices."

ETON V. WESTMINSTER, (May 13th, 1831,)
This race was rowed on Thursday, May 13th, 1831, at Maidenhead,
the course being from the bridge to Queen's Eyot, below Monkey Island,
and back. A short time after four, the gentlemen of Eton pulled up to
the scratch in the Britamiia, built by Honey and Archer, and their
antagonists in Mr. Roberts' boat, called the Challenge. At this period
many of the friends of the contending parties had arrived in carriages and
on horseback, and lined the towing-path, which, added to the propitious
state of the weather, and the vast assemblage of the spectators, presented
an interesting scene. The Etonians won the toss, and took their position
at the Eton side of the river — the stern of their boat being against a
punt-pole ; the Westminsters were similarly stationed on the opposite
side. At half-past four the preliminaries were adjusted, and the signal
was given. The Etonians started beautifully, their advantageous position
enabling them to get into complete swing in a fevv strokes, and they took
the lead of the Westminsters, who, not being so well in the stream, hung
back, which seemed to flurry them. The Etonians maintained the lead
all the way down by about four or five boats' lengths, and rounding a
pole, with a flag fixed on it, returned against the stream, when the Eton
gentlemen gradually increased in advantage, and ultimately came in
about a quarter of a mile in advance of the scholars of Westminster. It
would be in vain to attempt to describe the feeling that was manifested
at the result of the match. The cheering was almost deafening. The
distance was about six miles, and it was accomplished in about 45 mins.
Mr. E. Carter, of Eton, was Umpire, and the following is a list of the

Note. — An alteration was made this year in the Sides. Mr. Pickering's and
the School pulled the old way, the Eton Side boat crossing at the Brocas Clump.
But in the Lower Sixes the boat on Eton Side kept its side all the way, and the
boat on Windsor Side did not cross till they got round Bargeman's Bush, to the
usual place for Long Boats. This was found much fairer, being a great deal
more even as to the Sides*

ETON V. WESTMINSTER.
This race took place at Staines, on Thursday, May 12th, The dis-
tance rowed was from JStaines Bridge to Penton Hook and back — about
four miles altogether. Lord Orford and Captain Ackers, of the Blues,
were appointed Umpires. About four o'clock the Etonians appeared in
24
THE ETON BOATING BOOK,
rowing trim in the Victory, a new boat built by Archer, of Bishop's
Walk, Lambeth. The young gentlemen of Westminster came to Staines
in a new eight, called the Fany Queen, bailt of hr, expressly for the
occasion, by Noulton and Maynard, the well-known watermen, the former
taking the lines for his patrons. It was evident, even at a cursory glance,
that the Etonians had the decided superiority in weight and strength,
and betting was in their favour. Westminster won the choice of station,
and they took the south pier of Staines Bridge. Previous to starting, it
was agreed upon that no fouling should take place until half a mile of the
distance had been rowed. On going away from the bridge the West-
minsters went in advance, which position they kept for about a quarter of
a mile, Eton pressing them closely, Noulton had by this time steered
the Fairy Queen over to the course the Etonians were pursuing, and he
bored them so closely in shore that they were obliged either to foul the
Westminsters or go into the bank. A foul consequently took place,
which lasted five or six minutes, ending in the discomfiture of the Fairy
Queen, who had her rudder struck olf, an oar broken, and was turned
completely round. The Etonians went away with a cheer, but the
Umpires, considering that an infringement of the agreement had taken
place, called them back to a fresh start, which they immediately complied
with. At six o'clock they started froui the bridge a second time, with
an understanding that each boat should keep its ow^n side of the water
for half a mile. The Fairy Queen again took the lead, which she held
for about three-quarters of a mile, w^hen the Etonians came upon them,
and some smart fouling was the result. Eton at length cleared, and
showed the way down the stream. In rounding the distance boat they
were close together, and immediately after doubling the station punt the
Westminsters came alongside and fouled. Eton shortly cleared, but in
going away the Westminsters caught them on the starboard quarter,
which nearly put the Victory into the bank stern up. The Etonians,
however, shortly cleared themselves from this awkward situation, and
once more went in advance ; and notwithstanding they were occasionally
bumped by the Fairy Queen in working up against the stream, they
maintained the lead, ultimately winning by several boats' lengths. The
match proved a treat throughout, by the spirited and gallant manner in
which it was contested by both parties.

The Westminsters rowed in a boat built by Searle, called the HaidSe ; *
the Etonians in the Britannia, by Archer of Lambeth. The report then
states that, on the signal being given, the Westminsters dashed in ad-
vance, and in passing His Majesty's carriage, which was stationed about
150 yards from the Bridge, they were at least half a boat's length ahead.
At the corner of the Park wall, and nearly opposite Mr. Fowler's cot-
tage, the Etonians came more into the middle of the stream, and evidently
made a strong pull, in the liope of catching their opponents on the
quarter, but they were wide of the mark, and dropped full the length of
their boat in the wake of the Westminsters. BotL parties were loudly
cheered on to increased exertion, and in turning at the New Lock the
Etonians doubled their boat with greater dexterity than their antagonists,
and the consequence was that they brought the nose of their cutter bang
on to the sixth oar of the Westminsters, w^ho would have shipped some
water had not young Lord Somerton bore the Haidee up by leaning over
on the opposite side. The starboard forward men on board the Britannia
were ordered to make as much way as possible, while those on the lar-
board backed water, and by these means the Etonians were foiled in
turning the opposition party in shore, and both parties came along-side
of each other. After about two minutes manoeuvring, the Westminsters
got away, closely pressed by Eton, who quickly came again on their
quarter, but could not succeed in their object, for the Westminsters,
evidently by superior strength, and with their backs well laid down to their
work, drew ahead, and ultimately won by between three and four lengths,
amid the almost deafening cheers of their friends. It was the first time
the Westminsters ever beat the Etonians. This was almost the last time
the King appeared in public, and the Eton Boys believed that their
defeat was the immediate cause of the King's illness.

Mr. James Lay ton, of the Leander, who consented to officiate as
Umpire, having requested Mr. T. S. Egan, the coxswain of the Cambridge
Subscription- Room Boat, to start the race, the competitors paddled to
their stations. The words ' Are you ready ? Off!' were no sooner uttered,
than away went the Etonians, the Westminsters remaining behind, their
coxswain having dropped his line ; but not one oar was pulled through
the water. It became necessary, therefore, to recall the light blue of the

Brocas, and re-start the Tnatch. It was ascertained that the line attached
to the buoy held by the Eton boat was several yards longer than the
Westminster one, which was observed by the Umpire and altered, and
hence the stoppage of the latter crew. On the starter's voice being again
heard, off went Etonian and Westminster, Cantab and Metropolitan, the
former having a slight advantage, obtained possibly by their greater phy-
sical power ; but on getting well into play, the golden rule of take the
lead and keep it was remembered by the Goolden crew, and with a dash-
ing stroke the Westminsters jumped their boat up to their opponents,
and shortly struggled into the pride of place, being clear ahead of them
off the osier bed, near the house that formerly belonged to ZofFany, the
painter. Both boats now were capitally steered, and rattling away at a
delightful pace. The Westminsters drew their boat in and took the
course of the Etonians, and down to the middle of Mortlake no change
took place in the relative positions of the boats, both parties doing their
best in return for the loud and hearty cheers of their friends. At Mort-
lake, however, by reason of the Westminsters hugging the shore a little
too closely, and thus giving their opponents, who were outside, the
greater advantages of tide, the Etonians were observed to start up
to Westminster No. 7, and had they boldly struck more into the
tideway, we feel that, although victory might not perhaps have crowned
their subsequent efforts with success, the result would have been nearer.
As it however turned out, the Westminsters not only held their own, but
on arriving at Barnes were well ahead, perhaps a boat's length, and went
on increasing their advantage, till entering the centre arch of Putney
Bridge they were proclaimed the victors, doing the distance in 38 mins.
and beating the Etonians by 35 seconds.

Mr. Edward Searle was in a boat in the centre arch of Putney Bridge
to give the starting signal, the Westminsters, who lost the loss for place,
being on the Surrey shore side of it, and the P]tonians on tlie other. At
the time appointed (six o'clock) the signal was givcm, and the West-
minsters made a more rapid start, and generally in execution shewed an
advantage over their opponents ; but the slight lead they obtained was of
short duration, for their powerful antagonists slowly but surely took the
' pride of place ' away from their comparatively diminutive antagonists.
By the time they had reached Pinch's Grand Stand, Eton was at least a
length and a half ahead, and at the termination of the race the Etonians
proved victorious by about 45 sees. The winners rowed the distance in
34 minutes.

It will be seen that the Etonians were lOst. 21bs. the heavier crew.
The betting was exceedingly varied, for in some places the friends of the
Etonians ^vere backing them at 6 to 4, while in others the Westminsters
were the favourites. In the construction of the boats and appearance of
the ' tools ' there was no comparison. The Eton cutter, by Goodman,
was rather on the antique principle, for her flaring topsides put us in
mind of those that were built in bygone times. It was however by no
means considered a bad boat for a provincial. The Westminsters ap-
peared in a new outrigger, flfty-five feet m length and about two and a
half in the beam, constructed by Noulton. Mr. Selwyn, an old Etonian,
and for many years the stroke oarsman of the Queen Bess at Trinity College,
Cambridge, and who was rowed by a mixed crf^w of Westminsters and
Etonians, took the lines as Umpire. Mr. Burton, J^eur., formerly stroke
of the Westminster boat, tossed with Mr. Luttrell for choice of stations,
and winning, the Westudnster took the outside, or Surrey side. The
start was efiected at 25 minutes past two, and no sooner was the word
given than the Etonians took the lead, getting off in clean style ; whereas
the Westminsters, probably from the smallness of their boat, appeared to
roll a little, so that Nos. 7 and 5 oai-s jumped out of the rowlocks. On
their little coxswain, however, giving the w^ord 'steady,' they laid down
to their long dragging stroke, appearing little concerned at their opponents
having drawn a boat's length ahead. The short snatching stroke of
Eton, however, did not live long against the long drag of the West-
minsters, and a third of a mile had not been rowed l)efore they were oar-
and-oar with their opponents ; and on the coxswain exclaiming ' Pick
her up for a few^ strokes,' the Westminsters went right by them, amid
cheers almost deafening, and the excitement that prevailed beggars de-
scription. After this the Westminsters continued their course at an
extremely rapid pace, gradually increasing their advantage, and eventually
winning by one minute and five seconds, and doing the distance in 26
minutes. The Etonians palled an extremely stern wager, for which they
were heartily cheered by all present on their arrival at Putney, and by
none more so than the Westminster party.

Eton had the Middlesex shore and Westminster the Surrey side. Mr.
Selwyn was Umpire, rowed in an Ki<>iit by London VVatermen. Mr.
Edward Searh^ started them The Ktouians s^ot to work first, diawins^
their b at slio-litly in advance, but Westminster soon made up their
minds for business, and showed tliat they were up to their woik. A few
vio^orous strokes bronirht them level, and they then very soon drew their
nose in front. The Etonians pulL d in good foru), but it was evident,
ev^m opposite Searle's (now Simmonds') that they had not steam enoui>'h.
At Hammersmith. Westminster was two lengths ahead, and although
Eton, by several pluckv spurts, at times decreased the lead of tlieir
opponents, Westminster eventually arrived at Mortlake the winners by
nearly three lengths. Thus up to this time each had won four matches.

Edward Searle, as uusal, officiated as Starter. Westminster won the
toss for station and took the Middlesex shore. Soon after starting Eton
went gradually ahead, and although the Westminsters struggled with the
greatest pluck, and their little stroke oar. Barker, astonished the con-
gregated oarsmen by the beauty of his form and the spirit of his rowing,
they were foiced to succumb to the great power of Eton, who pnlled
besides splendidly, and won the race by Imin. 30secs., rowing the dis-
tance in 25 mins. 50secs.

" It will scarcely be believed — we can hardly realise it ourselves — that
since the year 1847 up to the present race (1860) the Eton and West-
minster Match has been a blank. Much has been written, more has

been said, and perhaps most of all has been thought on this subject, and
from time-to-time influential men have even stirred to action in the en-
deavour to restore it, but always without success. It is not our province,
nor, indeed, would it be a matter of much interest, to trace further than
the cursory manner above, the difficulties which were invariably thrown
in the way, or the arguments used for their removal ; let it be sufficient
that we have our match once more, and let us hope that the manner in
which it has been conducted from the beginning to its honourable con-
clusion will be the best proof of its propriety. When early in the year
it was resolved by the authorities that the time had arrived whose signs
unmistakably demanded the renewal of the match, two gentlemen were
selected to whose care and discretion the whole of the preliminary ar-
rangements were confided. These were Mr. J. W. Chitty, of Exetej
College, Oxford, and an old Etonian, for Eton, and Mr. John Wiight,
of St, John's College, Cambridge, and an old Westminster, for West-
minster; and by them, among other things, it was decided to shorten
the distance which had formerly been rowed, fixing on the course from
Putney Bridge to a flag-boat moored olf the top of Chiswick Eyot, being
somewhat about 2i miles. Eton rowed in the boat built by Matthew
Taylor of Newcastle in which they defeated Eadley College at Henley in
1858, and they are greatly indebted for their good form to the pains for
a long time bestowed on their rowing by Mr. Edmond W^arre, Eellow of
All Souls, Oxford, and formerly a distinguished member of the O.U.B.C.
For the Westminster crew Mr. John Wright had done much as well in
the selection of their men as in their subsequent training and practice ;
and Mr. Edward Searle built them a new boat expressly for the occasion.
Mr. J. W. Chitty acted as Umpire, an office which he has for some years
filled at the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Eace. The names of the crews
were as follow : —
Eton.

The eventful day (August 3rd) broke, as, alas ! too many have before
it this summer, by no means propitiously, and as the time for the race
approached, the sky became of that gloomy cast which betokened rain.
On arrival at Putney there were no less than six boats to accompany the
match, viz. the Umpire's boat, the new Yictoria, Captain Bean, the
Childe Harold, the Yenus, Citizen L, Citizen E, and another ; the attend-
ance, besides, on shore was very numerous. At a little after half-past
ii8

three the rain began to descend, and at the same moment the Etonians
rowed out from Simmonds', There were good pace and form with them,
and as they passed the various steamboats a great cheer arose from their
partisans. The Westminster men were very tardy in coming to the
scratch, and, when they appeared, their rowing was quick, but it seemed
to lack something and to fall off from what it had been during their
training. Eton won the toss, and took up their station on the Middlesex
side, Westminster close to them, and Mr. Edward Searle in the middle,
as starter. A few minutes before four o'clock they got off at a great pace,
with very little tide under them. Westminster were liveliest, and for an
instant led by a few feet, but in the next two strokes they were level
and rowing a desperate race, which, however, only lasted at most two
hundred yards ; then Eton began to shew unmistakable signs of drawing
away, and their pulling was so effective that they passed the Star and
Garter, leading by half their own length. The Etonians were now taken
inside the various craft, and right along shore ; the Westminsters outside
but more in the tideway (both boys steering remarkably well), but this
did not at all alter the state of the race ; the excellent rowing in the Eton
boat showed that they must win, and although the Westminsters pulled
very pluckily, they were gradually left astern, till at the point, the Etonians
were leading by more than a clear length. Both were very fast at this
part of the race, Eton rowing 38 strokes per minute, Westminster between
39 and 40 ; in the same even and good style the Eton men passed the
Crab Tree four or five lengths ahead, in 6 minutes 15 seconds from the
start, and under Hammersmith Bridge, where both had to put the rudder
round hard, having gone close along the Surrey shore, and which was
reached in about 8 minutes 50 seconds, the Etonians led by upwards of
half a dozen lengths. The stroke in the Westminster's crew here put on
one of the finest spurts ever seen, and had it been answered to by all as
well as it was by those immediately behind him, the gap between the
boats would have been considerably decreased; as it was, however, the
Eton men only went further away the further they had to go, and reached
the winning post at the top of Ciiisvvick Eyot 50 seconds in advance of
the Westminsters, the time being 13 minutes 55 seconds. We feel
bound to say that neither crew was in any part of the course at all
jeoparded by the accompanying steamers, the captains of which behaved
in a most fair and praiseworthy manner, and we hope that this very
desirable rule will be carried out on all future occasions."
Mr. E. Warre, on account of winning this race, has presented the
Captain of the Boats, and all who succeed him, with a Pair- oared Out-
rigger, on the conditions that : —
1. No one but the Captain of the Boats shall use it unless with express
permission, but that Mr. Warre shall always have it when he wishes it.
THE ETON BOATING BOOK.
119
2. It ehall start in no race.
3. No one shall be taken out in it until lie has obtained proficiency in the
art of rowing ; a bad oar must first be instructed in gigs, and the pair
oar must accomplish the finishing him ofic.
4. It must be kept in good order, varnished and repaired when required ;
and
5. Used only for purposes of instruction or especial practice.
This boat was given with a view to encourage pair-oared rowing without
steerers and paved the way to the change which was made in 1863.

Parker was fouled by Neave, upon which Chambers passed him, and a
fine race ensued as far as Hester's Shed, where Neave forced Dawson into
Chambers, who was thereby stopped so much as to lose about 50 yards.
Parker, in the meantime, kept his lead, and was never headed. Chambers
coming in second ; Dawson third ; and Neave last, who went the wrong
side of the flag at Sandbank. There was some dispute whether the race
should be rowed again or not, but as Parker did not foul anybody, the
race was given to him. Time — 21mins. 45secs.

their 4th of June dresses, and, on arriving there, sat down to a dinner of Ducks
and Green Peas with Champagne, &c. After dinner, toasts were proposed and
drank, and at 8 o'clock they started to row down again. At Bargeman's Bush
they were met by the Lower Boats, also in their 4th of June dresses, and a
procession was formed which rowed under Windsor Bridge, round the Eyot,
and then in to the Bafts.
Oppidan Dinner took place at the end of the Summer Half. The Upper
Boats, the Captains of the Lower Boats, the Cricket Eleven, the Captain of
the School, and a few other Swells were invited by the Captain of the Boats.
It was held at the White Hart, and began after four and lasted till Lock-up,
but the party had to break up for 6 o'clock absence, and then re-assemble.

* A Boating Bill, remitting the necessity of attending 6 o'clock absence on
Holidays and Half-Holidays, was given on the following understanding : —
1. That not more than the crews of two Eights or the Ten-oar and one
Eight can avail themselves of the privilege at the same time.
2. That the Captains of the crews be severally responsible for the conduct
of their crew, and the senior of two Captains, when two boats avail themselves
of the Bill, be responsible for both crews.
3. That the Bill will in no case be granted unless the Captain or one of the
Captains of the boat or boats for it be in the first eight Choices in the Boats.
(When the Eight is in training the next eight Choices may apply for a Bill).
4. That a correct list of such Choices shall be sent in by the Captain of the
Boats at the beginning of every Summer Half to the Head Master.
5. That crews availing themselves of this privilege are bound in honour to
row beyond Maidenhead Lock.
6. As landing on the Cliefden side of the water above Maidenhead has been
forbidden to the public by the proprietors of the land, the crews are bound not
to trespass by landing on this or any other private property, without being
expressly invited by persona entitled to do so.
7. That no old Etonian or any one not a present Etonian be allowed to go
up in either boat.
8. That the First Captain, or whoever is responsible for those availing
themselves of the privilege, shall give a correct list to the Head Master before
setting out.
As this privilege is granted for the benefit of Rowing, and for the en-
couragement of a manly pursuit of that amusement, let all who avail themselves
of it consider that they are bound in honour to carry out the conditions in the
spirit and the letter.

The Eton and Westminster Race.*
The results of last year's race had disproved the groundless fears and
objections that for an interval of thirteen years prevented this interesting
contest, and the authorities of both Schools seem to take an active interest
in its revival. About twenty minutes to eleven the two crews paddled
to their posts, Mr. J. W. Ohitty acting as Umpire. The Westminsters
had won the toss, and chose the Middlesex shore. As they paddled up
towards the Bridge they were greeted with loud cheers by their friends
and admirers. The Westminsters were the first, but rather disappointed
us in their style. The bodies were not together, and though the oars
touched the water at the same time, yet the power of the stroke was not
applied by the whole eight at the same moment. However, the crew
seemed strong and to lay it on with a will ; their stroke was perfection,
and our hopes of seeing a race were not altogether gone. The Eton crew
rowed up to the post in good style and form, and the boat danced away
at the beginning of every stroke in such a way as to tell of the right thing
done at the right moment, and the beginning of the stroke caught well

the whole crew certainly looked like winners. The names and weights

The start was effected at ten minutes to eleven. Westminster shewed
a little in fi'ont for the first four strokes, and then it was seen that Eton,
with the dash that has characterised their rowing for the last two years,
must inevitably win. Four more strokes and the light blue shewed a
quarter of a boat's length in front ; before they arrived at the first corner
two lengths were between the boats, and, notwithstanding the plucky
rowing of Westminster, the distance visibly increased. At Hammersmith
Bridge, Westminster put on a spurt, but all in vain, for the Eton crew
were rowing within themselves, and finished as they liked, with about
seven or eight lengths to spare. The time was about 13i minutes, but
owing, by some oversight, to there being no flag to mark the finish, and
the boats stopping at different places, the exact time for the proper course
could not be taken.
This year a new boat was built by Matthew Taylor of Newcastle-upon-
Tyne for Henley Eegatta and the Westminster race, which has since been
proved to be one of the fastest boats ever made. She was regularly used
for the Henley race until 1872, when a new boat was built by Messrs.
Salter on the same lines as nearly as could be. Pieces of the old boat
are preserved by many of those who rowed in her.

It was universally regretted that Eton scratched for the Grand Chal-
lenge Cup. They had drawn the worst station, and the Oxford Etonians
looked very formidable, but there is no doubt that if they could not win
they would have made a very close race of it. Eadley have never beaten
Eton, but they may say that, on this occasion, Eton was afraid of them.

A new rule was this year introduced at Henley Eegatta by which
coxswains were compelled to carry weight in proportion to the weight of
their crew. Accordingly
For a crew averaging lOst. Olbs. to lOst. 71bs. steerer must weigli 7st. Olbs.
„ „ lOst. Vlbis. to list. Olbs. „ 7st. 71bs,

From a Newspaper : — " The Eton boys received the accustomed cheer-
ing as they pulled up to the start, their even stature and fresh light blue
jackets contributing to present a very pretty picture. They started in a
slight flurry, but soon drew into an even stroke, and joined in the fray
with Oxford and Cambridge. Brasenose held command one- half the
course, Cambridge, well up, second, with Eton hanging on their quarters.
At the end of the first mile Eton, by dint of steady pulling, drew ahead
of Cambridge, and threatened to deprive Brasenose of their lead. The
latter, in crossing towards their rivals, accidentally fouled Cambridge,
and were signalled by the umph^es to stop. Eton at the same moment
dashed past the Cantabs in grand style, and, amid the cheers of the spec-
tators, landed the winners by two lengths. Time — Smins. 5secs."

the signal was given, favoured by the shelter and still water of the Buck-
inghamshire shore, the Eton boys, who were in better form than tLey
have ever appeared at Henley, rushed right aliead, and keeping their own
true course were soon nearly three lengths to the fore. Meanwhile
Thames and London, nearly close together on the opposite side of the
river, were rowing a very hard race, Thames having slightly the lead over
the other eight. At the top of the bay London rowed down Thames, and
began gradually to draw towaids Eton, but the boys, maintaining the
very fast stroke of not less than 42 to the minute, at which they had
started, held their advantage without flinching. London made very little
improvement in their position, until the poplar point was reached.
Thames were now beaten, and were steering very wide, while Eton, find-
ing it requisite to cross from the Bucks to the Berkshire side, gave
London, who were able to continue their straight course, a distinct ad-
vantage. This they were able to retain to the end. Li the last three
hundred yards Eton made a tremendous eff'ort, and were again fast draw-
ing upon the London ; but the distance to be travelled w^s now too short,
and the light blue boys were beaten by half a length after one of the best
races ever seen. Time — 7mins. 40secs."

Soon after the start a foul occurred between the two centre boats,
which enabled Sandbach and Mulholland to row right away and win as
they liked in 21mins. 16secs. Thornhill broke the blade of his oar badly
in the collision, but notwithstanding this disadvantage, by good water-
manship, he managed to come in second, and so get a place in the Final
Heat. Meux and Crossley, who were not well together, were third.

Before the start, Croft and Cunard were considered from their previous
performance to be almost sure of success, but some thought that Sandbach
or Wilson might make their victory a hard one. At the start, Cunard
and Croft took the lead, with Sandbach and Mulholland not far behind :
almost directly, however, the latter broke an oar, and consequently retired
from the scene of action. Cunard and Croft, meanwhile, increased their
lead from Wilson and Phillips, until Eailway Bridge, where, by bad
steering, they lost ground. Prom this point, the tln'ce boats maintained
their relative positions as far as Hashes, where Wilson spurted and nearly
overlapped the winners : but upon turning the rye-peck Cunard gained a
decided advantage, which was, however, somewhat diminished by the
erratic course which he took as far as Athens. The race was never in
doubt from this point, and Cunard won by 3 or 4 lengths ; Thornhill and
Novelli being some way behind Wilson and Phillips. Time — 20mins.

COLLEGE AQUATICS.
The Collegers have had a six, four, or eio-ht-oared boat on the river
for many years, formerly they were only allowed to use the river from
Windsor Bridge to Datchet ; but in the year 1840 it was publicly an-
nounced in Upper School by the Head Master (Dr. Hawtrey) that
they were to row above tlie Bridge. Since that time they have pulled up
to Surly Hall and Monkey Island, the same as the Oppidans, although
they have not until quite lately contended in the same races with them,
or rowed in the same boats.
The only races of any interest they are recorded to have rowed will be
found below ; and besides these it does not appear that they had any but
some Scratch Pours, and that only of late years.
The Challenge Cups for the Pulling were procured in 1852 by means
of a subscription got up by Wasey-Sterry, and some good racing has
been the result. Considering the few College " Wet-Bobs " it is very
satisfactory to find that there has been an entry of from four to seven
Pairs every year with the exception of 1857, when for some reason or
other no race was rowed. The Cups were however engraved with the
names of Wilson ma. and Wilson mi. in that year, but there is no account
of how this mistake occurred.
A number of rules were drawn up in 1853 by Waud, Marillier, and
Buckle to regulate this race. By these (among other things) it is provided
that a committee of three should be chosen from the Sixth Porm and
Liberty at the commencement of the Summer school-time for the direction
of the race, no two of whom might enter for it together. The Prizes to
be given to the winners were to be a Pair of silver-gilt Oars and a silver-
gilt Steerage to the Coxswain ; and to the second boat a Pair of silver
Oars and a silver Steerage. The Coxsvvains must have been Collegers
if possible ; but if it were proved that no efficient Colleger could be found,
an Oppidan might be chosen. The power to determine any complaint on
the subject of an Oppidan Coxswain, and all other objections, being
reserved for the committee.
It does not appear that any race has been rowed between Collegers and
Oppidans, although a four-oared race might fairly have been got up in
some years, without a prospect of its being by any means a hollow aifair.
In 1856 a match was proposed between Mr. Carter's Pour and College,
but it was declined by the latter on the ground of being in fact a Colleger
and Oppidan race.
There is no record of any other event in College Aquatics which deserves
notice until the year 1864, which is memorable as the first in which a
College Eight made its appearance on the river. Marsden, who pulled
Stroke of this Eight, had the honour of rowing number 4 in the Eight ot
the School in their contest with Westminster in the same year. Since
that time a College Eight has alw^ays joined in the procession of the Boats
222
THE ETON BOATING BOOK.
on the Pourth of June and Election Saturday. Owing to the improve-
ment thus effected in their rowing, and the increased numbers of College
** Wet-Bobs," it was manifest that the Oppidans could no longer fail to
acknowledge that they might fairly claim to be put on the same terms
with them on the river, as they had already been in the Cricket and Foot-
ball matches; and accordingly in 1868 all the races whicli hitherto had
been confined to " the Boats " were opened to them. It followed as a
natural consequence that they should at last be allowed to join the Boats,
and in 1869 an additional boat was put on.
College Aquatics have thus become merged into the Oppidan Boats,
and there is no doubt that the strength gained by this important move-
ment will most materially benefit the rowing of the School. It w^as high
time that the last distinction between Collegers and Oppidans in the
sports of the School should be abolished, and though a healthy rivalry
may long be kept up between them, no diflcrence should be recognised to
exist, where in fact both can contend on equal terms.

The course was from Putney to Mortlake. The Americans led to
Hammersmith Bridge, rowing 44 and 45 strokes a minute. Oxford
rowed 39 strokes a minute and gradually came up even and then passed
them at Chiswick and won by three clear lengths. Time— 2.2mins. 17secs.
A better four-oared crew than Oxford has rarely been seen. The Amer-
icans rowed with great pluck, but their work was done with their arms
and their strokes were short, scratchy, and flurried.
