We publish this morning a part of the report made by Mr. Knapp on the condition of the boat house at the time of the accident. Mr. Knapp finds several faults, each of which contributed to bring about the disaster,-some of which an examination would have shown, and some not. Neither the club nor the college seems to be to blame in particular, although we must confess it seems to us quite unsatisfactory to learn that, when a little careful investigation would have saved us from the accident, it was not made. That no one knew such an investigation was needed cannot possibly be an excuse ; it ought to have been known, and the structure made safe. Carelessness, however slight, is inexcusable where human life is concerned. And if the care with which the boat house was formerly looked after was not sufficient, as has been proven, we believe we would earnestly recommend that a great deal more care be bestowed on it so as to ensure perfect safety beyond doubt. We escaped an appalling disaster by so little that it ought to be a sufficient warning in the future for one department not to depend on another's watchfulness, and so suspend investigation until after the accident has happened. All in all, we have every reason to be thankful that it was no worse. The outcome has been so much better than anyone at the time supposed was possible, that we gladly allow the matter to rest here.
