"Mr. L. Weber Resides in Brooklyn, and occupied an enviable position
in the American team last year. He is about fort-eight years of age,
of middle height, light complexion, with blue eye, and shoots for amusement
and the benefit of his health. He uses the Sharps rifle, shoots in the
"Fulton" position, and during the last three years has frequently
distinguished himself at the Creedmoor butts. He made for his present
place in the team 1,195 out of a possible 1,350 points, which leaves
him the very high average of 199 1-6."
