OFF FOR POUGHKEEPSIE.

The Crews Given a Rousing sendoff Last Saturday.

On Saturday, after the ball game, a large crowd of students and many graduates, headed by the College Band, marched down to the boathouse to cheer the crew for the last time. The crew rowed up and down opposite the boat-house in the following order: Stroke, Goodrich; 7, Bullard; 6, Sprague; 5, Fennessy; 4, Hollister; 3, Perkins; 2, Townsend; bow, Derby, Hollister and Townsend having exchanged places. Bullard, whose back still troubles him a little, then left the boat, Derby taking his place at seven and Moulton going in at bow. The greatest enthusiasm was shown; all the members of the crew and the substitutes were cheered, Captain Bullard especially. It was the best send-off that the crew has been given for years.

Yesterday the crew and the substitutes left for Fall River on the 6 p. m. train, going to New York by the Fall River boat. This morning they will go up the Hudson by boat to Poughkeepsie, where they will arrive at 2.30 p. m.
