Wood 252 72 181 847 304 In 1868 y. Sussex Pooley stumped 4 and caught 8—a record in first-class cricket. Wood’s proportion of wickets caught to wickets stumped is noteworthy. In 1890 he stumped only three men, and in the same match, yet he caught 34 that year. IV.—SURREY CAPTAINS. Several: the principal have teen F. P. Miller and J.

North E. Pooley—South v. North R. Humphrey—South v. North E. Barratt—Surrey v Yorkshire M. Read—England v. Australians Besides an annuity of £40 to Caffyn, and regular grants to other old players, as Pooley, R. Humphrey, etc. Maurice Read’s benefit yielded more than £1200. Surrey have always be?n good to professional cricketers ; by them the “ talent sovereign ’ ’ was started, which in my younger days used to be given in public at the close of the batsman’s inning3 of 50 or more runs, and in front of the pavilion. As this proved a serious interruption to play, the award was subsequently given in private. I believe that to-day the Surrey captain has £100 placed at his disposal each year, to be doled out by him to batsmen, bowlers, and fielders, as he may think best. In preparing the foregoing summaries various items of interest have come under notice. Here are just a few. 1847 Surrey y. M.C.C. A. Haygarth was bowled out by the fifth ball of an over, the umpire—Caldecourt (“ honest W ill ") not calling over. Surrey were 106 runs behind, followed on, and won. This was the only first-class match ever played in which the side that followed (100 runs behind was the limit then) won. 1849 Box and Hillyer played for Surrey y. England. Punch had a capital skit on this match called “ Mr. P ips his diary.” 1852 W ith Sussex’ help, Surrey lost to England; without it, three days later, they beat England by 7 wickets. 1855 Ctesar and Stephenson struck for higher pay, and so only played in the first match. 1859 The last Surrey wicket—Mudie and Sewell—put on 128 runs against Kent and Sussex. 1861 The sum of £48 10s. was collected and given to Cfesar, Hayward, and Carpen ter, each of whom scored the century in the Surrey v. Cambridgeshire match. 1862 Surrey v. England. Willsher, of Kent, was no-balled six times by John Lilly- white. This led to the alteration in Law 10 respecting the height of the bowler's hand. Surrey v. Kent. Surrey^had 192 to get in the se ond innings, and lost only one wicket in the doing. 1863 Surrey v. England. Bennett, of Kent, bowled a wonderful over, which re sulted in the downfall of four Surrey wickets ; Stephenson was stumped, Caffin run out, Dowson bowled, Grif fith caught. 1866 All the Surrey ele?en bowled against Middlesex. 1865 A serious disturbance in the Surrey v. Notts m atch ; in consequence, this match was not played again until 1868. 1870 Surrey lost the first twelve matches. 1872 First seven M.C.C. wickets, including W. G.’s, got no runs. 1880 Seven “ duck's eggs ” in Surrey’ s first innings of 16 runs v. .Notts. 1885 Briggs and Pilling scored 173 for the last Lancashire wicket against Surrey bowling. 1889 Lohmann and Sharpe scored 149 for the last Surrey wicket against Essex. 1893 Lohmann absent through illness.
