D r a r S ir .— Y ou will be pleased to hear that one of your bats that I purchased at the Oval was used in all my mitches, both first and second class, last season. I should in all probability have been using it next season had not the damp got hold of it whilst crossing over to America. I can safely say it was the best bat I have ever had in my career. You are at liberty to make any use of this recommendation you please. Sincerely yours, GILBERT L. JESSOP. Seasons, 1899, 1900, 1901—3,600 runs w ith this bat.—GILBERT L. JESSOP, Capt.
