"Fred Fenton on the Crew; Or, The Young Oarsmen of Riverport School" by Allen Chapman is an early 1900s narrative about Fred Fenton, a Riverport School student, who balances his school life with friendships and rivalries, particularly in the world of rowing. The story opens with Fred and his friend Bristles Carpenter grappling with accusations against Bristles related to stolen opals from his aunt, Miss Alicia Muster. Their discussion by the river is interrupted when they find a young boy in danger of drowning, prompting Fred to bravely rescue him.
