Baunerman and Murdoch took tho wickets and at the luncheon adjournment both were not out, the former having scoied 20, and the latter 13. Murdoch, though playing with great care, was caught for 17. Bannernnm, hitting with unusual freedom, put together 63 before being disposed of. " Bonnor followed, and was caught for three,* and Hoiau was caught and bowled for nil. (Tifl'en, by a series or splended drives, scored 32, but was ultimately stumped. Evans then went in, but was caught before he had time to score.
