 The last-named crew, however, pulled itself together for a spurt when close to the bath-house, so that at the bridge there was only a length between the boats.In the finish, the Norwegians showed such energy, and rowed in such fine style, that their effort will be remembered as one of the most noteworthy episodes of the regatta.Inch by inch they crept up the leaders, so that, in spite of the energetic, really desperate strokes of the "Thames R. C." crew, the two boats passed the post almost simultaneously.
