source, and strength, surmounted all difficulties, unjl brilliantly won the match. His bow''ng'imd batting against New South Wales were also of the highest order, his double century being a fitting Wind-up to a brilliant season. In England his performances were remarkable. In flrst-elass inatclies ho took 131 wickets for an average of 18.19, while with the bat he made 942 Tuns for an average of '.'3/13. In all matches lie took 151 wickets for cn average of 17.27, and made 1008 run 3, with an averago of !!7.24. While not enumerating his many excellent deeds in the Old Cpuntry, his performance against Yorkshire, the crack county, deserves special mention. It was Gregory's match. He took 13 wickets for 170 runs, and scored lloj'and 41 not out. They wcro the achievements of a champion. The A.I.P. team were set 170 to get in the'.r lost innings, and when their ninth wicket tell at 110 it seemed any odds against tham. Gregory was joined by Long, and the two batsmen, playing with great norve, steadily hil oft the remaining 54 runs, and won the match, though Blackbnrnc and Ithodes werj bowling well. If Gregory does not neglect his bowling for batting, lie should be a great force in the test matches of the future.
