George Gilbert GuttereB, rector of Carlton-Col- ville, near Lowestoft.” With reference to Mr. Gutteres, an Old Harrovian writes : — “ His age was not inserted in the Standard , but he must have been about 38, as his name will be found in the Winchester Eleven which played against Eton in 1877 and 1878. He was for snme time curate at St. John’s, Torquay. When at Oxford, be played in a few of the University matches, but not against Cambridge.” MR. J. S. ROBINSON. At Worksop Manor, on Thursday latt, Mr. Sandford Rjbiuson died after a severe illness, which resulted from a fall from his horse. He was born on Feb­ ruary 4th, 1868, and played for Notts in most of the matches of 1891 and 1892. Since then he has only occasionally appeared in the county eleven. In the winter of 1892 he went with Lord Hawke’s team to India, and so far from deriviqg benefit from the voyage and tour, he seemed to have undermined his health by his visit. In 1894 he again accompanied Lord Hawke in his tour in the United States. Great things were expected of him when he first represented his county, and but for his failing health he would in all probability have become a great cricketer. A t Harrow be showed very considerable promise, although he did not succeed in getting a place in the eleven. From school he went to Trinity College, Cambjidge, and in the Fresh­ men’s match of 1887 he scored 56 not out and 29. In the follow ing year he made 5 and 63 not out in the Senior’s match, and did well for the Sixteen against the Eleven, but was not tried again until the follow ing year, when he ag.ain played in the Seniors and for the Next Sixteen. He was an all-round athlete, and was exceedingly popular in Nottinghamshire, especially among hunting men. GRANVILLE (LEE) 1st XI. v. NEXT XVIII.- Played at Lee on April 23. T h e XVIII. H. T.
