G loucestershire, w h o w on the toss, fou n d the w icket, in sp ite o f the recen t rainfall, fa i-ly easy, and W . G . and F erris played so w ell th a t 51 w ere got b efore the litte r w as out. •though at the lu n ch eon in terval on T hursday the score w as 70 fo r tw o w ickets, the renew al was a tteD d ed w ith very u n favou rable results, at all events fo r a tim e. W . G ., w h o had played adm ir­ able c ick et fo r tw o hours and a half, w as ou t the fifth w icket at 105. and C apt. L uard, M r. B row n, and M u rch did so little th a t w hen the ninth bats­ m an w as ou t the total w as on ly 141. M r. F rancis how ever, received very usefu l help fro m R oberts an d B o ird , especially from thel atter. w h o helped to a dd th irty fo r the last w icket. M r. F rancis, w ho played w ith great nerve and judgem ent, w as still in w hen the innings w as over ju st before h a lf past fo u r o ’clock . O f the eight w ickets w h ich fell to th e N otts bow lers, five w ere secured b y F low ers at a co st o f ju st over eigh t and a h a lf runs apiece. N otts had an hour and forty m inutes left fo r bat­ tin g on T hursday evening, and in this tim e lost three o f their best b atsm en fo r 67 runs. O n F riday m orn in g D a ft and F low ers added 35 b efore the form er, w h o had been in tw o hours and a h a lf for his thirty, w as finely cau gh t and bow led. T he partnership o f F low ers and M r. R o b io s o n w as produ ctive o f som e very different batting. W . G. w as n ot able to bow l, and in h is a bsen ce G lo u ce s­ tershire’s ou t cricket w as con sid erably handi­ capped. B oth batsm en ou gh t to have b e tn out, and G loucestershire suffered th e pen alty to the tune o f 91 runs as the ou tcom e o f the partnership. A fter M r.

L a te r on B aguley also hit freely, w ith the result in th e end a very creditab le tota l o f 306. T h e rem aining pla y on F riday after­ n oon cam e qu ite as a surprise T h e w ick et w as in excellent order, bu t so w ell did the co lt H and­ fo rd b ow l that in tb e cou rse o f an h ou r six G lou­ cestershire batsm en w ere ou t fo r on ly sixteen runs.

T his tim e they lost the toss, and Sussex in going in first u n d ou f tedly had so m u ch the best of the ground as to affect th e result m aterially. B ean and M arlow , w h o open ed the b attin g for Sussex, are both adepts at the forcin g gam e, and taking fu ll advantage o f a slow w icket, had m ade 48 as th e ou tcom e o f hardly half an h ou r’s cricket, w hen th e form er w as bow led. M arlow w as fourth o u t at 70, and as Mr. B rann w as th e on ly one o f the later batsm en to get m ore than five runs, the in nings w as over soon after three o ’clo k on T hursday T h e to ta l o f 116 m ade b y Sussex, though fairly g ood under the circu m stan ces, w as certainly n ot w ith ou t the rea ch o f K ent. S uch w as the general opinion , bu t as it was, P arris and H ilton b ow led w ith su ch rem arkable success that in the course o f an h ou r and ten m inu tes the w hole side had been in and ou t w ithout a double figure am ong them . M r. A tk ios’ eight, in fact, w as the h ighest score. T h e w icket, o f course, gave th e b ow lers great assistance, bu t still, th e p erfor­ m ance o f P arris and H ilton, w h o bow led u nchanged, w as rem arkable. T h e form er, in particular, m ade th e b all do a great deal, and his six w ickets w ere all bow led. A s K ent’s total was on ly 35 they had ju st fa iled to save the follow -on by tw o runs, and this failu re to a great extent lost them the gam e. G oin g in again in a m in ority of 81, they again fared bad ly, losing fo u r o f their b est batsm en fo r 14. B y resolute cricket, M essrs. W ilson and P erkins p u t on 42 runs in the sam e n um ber o f m inutes, and the form er, w h o had played w ith great con fid en ce and pluck, w as out sh ortly before pla y ceased w ith the tota l at 76. W hen play began on Friday m orning K ent had m ade 87 fo r seven w ickets, and th ou gh Mr. A tkins and W righ t w ere soon out, a lu cky stand by M artin and W alter H ea m e, w ho added 38 fo r the tenth w icket, put K ent after all i i a m u ch better p osition than at one tim e look ed likely. Sussex in the end had 41 to w in, and B ean w ith som e lu ck soon placed th e issue b eyon d dou bt. H$ m ade 32 out o f 89 w hile he w as in, and then M arlow m ade the h it w h ich gave Sussex th e v ictory b y rin e w ckets.
