Although Mr. Finch killed his tenth bird, it was scored against 
him, because he accidentally stepped to the eighteen-yard score led 
by the puller who made the mistake. 
The judges were Dr. Sargent of Watertown, R. A. Anger of Le- 
Roy, Genesee County; referee, T. C. Banks of The Rod amd Gun; 
W. S. MniTay, judge of shot. 
By reference to the above record it will be seen that no club made 
a remarkably fine score. Bat all the shooters agree with nnanimity 
that the birds were the strongest ever seen and the wind, which was 
quite high at times, blew every bird from the score. There were 
not a dozen side birds in the whole lot. Taking these facts into 
consideration the score is very fair.
