Sir Charles Dilke is one of the most athletic men of his years in England. Even in his undergraduate days he was a highly skilful fencer at Cambridge, and one of its finest oarsmen. For nearly forty years he has devoted a part of nearly every day to practice with the foils, and he is considered to be one of the most expert fencers in Europe. He is also an accomplished horseman.
