A news clipping from 1842 reporting a dispute at Henley Regatta (now Henley Royal Regatta)which led to 'a sad days sport'. The regatta is a rowing event held annually on the River Thames by the town of Henley-on-Thames, England. Established on 26 March 1839, It is not to be confused with other separate events on the same course, (Henley Women's Regatta, Henley Masters Regatta and Henley Town and Visitors' Regatta) or with the Oxford & Cambridge boat race.
