Dr. Lucas was an elder in the Caswell Presbyterian church and was a t man of deep and abiding Christian c character. His heart was ever warm f toward his fellowman and persons t from every walk of life found in him a kind and sympathetic friend and ? adviser.

It is just sixty years since the %)! ; first race was rowed between crews representing Yale and Harvard. The event was held on Lake Winnepesaukee and resulting in a victory for Harvard.
