The Chairman then said that he had been asked, in the unavoidable absence of Mr. Wood, to present to Colonel Fellowes the claret jug and bowl which they saw on the table, as a small token of recognition of what he had done in connection with Hampshire cricket. He (the Chairman) did not think that the gifts represented a tithe of what thev owed to Colonel Fellowes, for without him he believed that they would have been at the lowest ebb : and there was no doubt that he had rendered very valuable service in connection with Hampshire cricket. He (the Chairman) had very great pleasure in presenting Colonel FellOwes, who he was sorry was about to leave them, with these small tokens of the esteem in which he was held (loud applause). The presentation consisted of a very hand­ some bowl, elaborately chased, about 12in. in height and 18m. in diameter. It is of solid silver with a lining of gold, and was supplied by Mr. A. Pegler, of the High Street. Colonel Fellowes’s crest appears upon it, as also the county arms, in more than one place. It is altogether a very artistic production, and an ornament of considerable value. The inscrip­ tion on the bowl is as follows :—“ Presented to Lieut.-Colonel Tames Fellowes, by his friends in Hampshire, in recognition of the services rendered by him to Hampshire county cricket. October, 1887.” Accompanying these gifts was a handsomely bound album containing the names of the subscribers. Colonel Fellowes made a suitable reply. The Chairman next handed to Col. Fellowes the county challenge cup won by the Ordnance Survey Club. The challenge cup is'of large dimensions, and being massive in its character, and of solid silver, must be of considerable value. It bears the inscription:—“ Hampshire Cricket Chal­ lenge Cup—Presented by A. H. Wood (Presi­ dent), 1887.” An inscription at the bottom states—“ This cup is the property of the donor until won three years in succession.” On the ebony stand prepared for the cup there now appears this inscription:—“ First year: Ord­ nance Survey Club beat Basingstoke Cricket Club by eight wickets. September 5 and 6, 1887.” Colonel Fellowes said he had great pleasure in accepting the cup, and he was sure they all felt very much obliged to Mr. Wood for giving it, and were sorry that he was unable to be there to present it himself (hear, hear). He of course hoped that the Ordnance Survey Club might win the cup another year : but he inclined to the opinion that some years would elapse before the cup was won by any olub three times in succession (applause). The proposed alterations in the rules were discussed, and it was decided that the auditor should bring up a list of arrears every year, and that those who were two j'ears in arrear would cease to become members of the club. Mr. Wood having intimated his wish not to serve again as president, Colonel Fellowes moved the appointment of Mr. F. Ricardo, which was seconded by Mr. Hargreaves, and carried nem. dis. The vice-presidents were re-elected, with the addition of Sir George Meyriok, Mr. John Mills, Mr. A. H. Wood, and Mr. R. G. Har-» greaves. On the motion of Colonel Fellowes, Mr. F. E. Laoey was appointed captain of the County Club.
