MX: Margaret Grove/ J. Harry Steinkampf d. Mrs Edward V Lynch/Walter J. Toussaint 6-1 8-6
An exciting final, as Wagner roars back from 0-5 down in the last set to tie matters. Marie has 3 match points at 7-6 40-0 but loses the next 3 games and the match. From the NYT: "the gallery was ready to call it a match when Miss Ballin trailed at 0-40, but two lobs in succession were smashed just out by the overanxious defender of the title." The last game feautured 14 spectacular points.
