Dear Sir,—I used one of your Bats at Hastings In 1891, and I scored 131. I may mention lt was perfectly new; I kept lt until this year, and have scored over 2,000 runs with lt. I used It when I made my 100th century, and I scored 1,000 runs in May with lt, so I think I may call lt my “ Record Bat.” This year at Hastings I scored 104 with another of your hats, and I hope it will turn out as well as the old one. Yours truly. To Ur. L. J. Nicolls. W . G. GRACE. Orders from K. 8. RANJITSINHJI for the Patent Bat. The Patentee does not bind himself to any number of curves in handle.
