J. fllCOIiliS, ROBERTSBRIDGE, PATENTEE A N D M ANU FACTU RER OF THE A .UTOMATIC B A T H AN D LE r r H E S E engravings ^ show the advantages this handle gives, as each curve forms a key or abutment against the elastic substance. A l­ though these handles are in two pieces from the shoulder to the blade, it is impossible to get them out of shape. The bats, introduced in 1890, have been used by the best Cricketers of England, Australia, and New Zea­ land, as well as having been sent to India ana Africa, and the universal testimony is that nothing has ever been brought into the Cricketing world to give such advantages to the batsman in cuttmg and driving powers. N otiob in oasb o f [nfringkmknt. — Th e Patentee does not bind h i m ­ self to a n y n u m b e r o f 16, Victoria Square, Clifton, Bristol. October 6th, 1895. D e a r 8 ib ,—I used one of your bats at Hastings in 1894 and scored 131. I may mention it was perfectly new. I kept it until this year, and have scored over 2,000 runs with it. I used it when I made my 100th century, and scored a 1,000 runs in May with it, so I think I may call it my record bat. This year, at Hastings, I scored 104 with another of your bats, and hope it will turn out as well as the old one. Yours truly, To. Mr. L. J. Nicolls. W . G. GRACE.
