The dismissal details are not available. Hampshire had Edmeads and Yalden as given men. It is notable that there are no byes in the match. This is unlikely to be correct: some reports give the margin as 47 runs (but without any further details) and it is possible the discrepancy results from byes omitted from the score. (Variant) DC shows this as a three-day game commencing 23 June, with no play on the first day, but no contemporary source could be found to corroborate this. SB incorrectly gives Miller as Joseph in this and other matches. 34
