Sixteen players turned up, aud a scratch match took place between teams chosen by A. Erskine and Francis Fish, the laKer’s side winning by seven runs. Fish’s side went in first and scored 66, of which 31 were contributed by Fish, who carried his bat through the innings. The only other player to get into double figures was Millard, with 11.
