Dun6andel turned up two men short, and Price nnd West, of the Sonthbri<le,e Club, filled their places. The ground was very heavy and slippery, but the game waß fairly fast, and the visitonmade a bettor show than would be imagineH from tho scores. For Leeston tho tries;were obtained by Rennio, who got three, Robb, Ballugh, Butler, and T,nnggtaff. The goul& were all kicked by Hogg
