TW O SEPARATE HUNDREDS BY JESSOP, D ra w n . V ery in teresting play w as w itnessed in this m atch, the outstanding feature being the batting of Jessop, who, fo r the th ird tim e in his career, m ade tw o separate hundreds in a m atch. G loucestershire lost B oard at 28 and G odsell at 32, a fter w hich L angdon and E. B arnett added 53 in 50 m inutes. Jessop w ent in w ith three out fo r 85, and, a fter a quiet start, h it in his w ell- know n style. So com pletely did he m onoplize the ru n -gettin g that du rin g the hour and a-half he w as in he scored 143 o f the 179 obtained, h it­ tin g a 6 (off Cranfield) and tw enty-four 4’s. He scored off 53 o f the 1Q4 balls he received, and the only poor stroke he m ade was w hen, at 132, he offered a difficult chance to the w icket-keeper. Chas. Barnett, who proved an excellent partner fo r him , helped to add 173 fo r the fifth w ick et; he batted tw o hours and a-lialf fo r 52, in w hich w ere eight 4’s, and w as eighth out. T he last five w ickets fell fo r 68 runs and the innings, a fter lastin g fou r hours and a-half, closed for 332. Som erset, after the open ing partnership had realised 85 in n early tw o hours, had six w ickets dow n fo r 1.37 and the follow -on seemed to be in store fo r the side. B ut W hittle h it out w ell, scorin g 88 not out in an hour and a- quarter and h ittin g fifteen 4’s. It w as a valu­ able innings. B y the end o f the day on F riday G loucestershire had scored 66 fo r the loss of the w ickets o f B oard and E . Barnett. L ang­ don, a fter b attin g an hour fo r 36, was lbw , and upon his dism issal, at 92, Jessop w ent in and played another fine in nings. He w as m issed w hen 22, but reached 50 out o f 63 in 57 m inutes and 103ou t of 130 in 65 ; in all, he scored^lSS out o f 175 in an hour and a half, hitting tw enty-five 4’s. W ith God­ sell, w ho batted tw o hours and a-half fo r 52, he added 87 fo r the fourth w icket, w ith C. B arnett 43 fo r the fifth, and w ith H uggins 45 in 15 m inutes w ithout a separation being effected. A s in the first innings, he received 104 balls and scored off 53 of them . H e offered tw o chances— w hen 22 and 63 — and, w hilst in w ith Chas. B arnett, at one period m ade 30 runs off the reel. W ith five w ickets dow n fo r 867 the in nings was declared closed, leaving Som erset 353 to w in and fou r hours in w hich to m ake the runs. In an hour and a h a lf B raund and B isgood m ade 91 for the first w icket, and, although P alairet and D aniell added 56 for the fourth in an hour, half the side w ere out fo r 167. A t this som ew hat critica l point R obson and W hittle cam e together and pu t on 73 w ithout bein g parted in three- quarters o f an hour, w hen, ow ing to bad light, stum ps w ere draw n.

It was origin ally intended that the visitin g side should be confined to am ateurs, but, with fifteen o f the counties engaged, it w as found im possible, and so A lec H earne and L lew ellyn w crg in cluded in the team . T roughton played faultless cricket and h it nine 4’s du rin g the tw o hours he was i n ; w ith H earne he m ade 46 fo r the first w icket and w ith H arrison 80 fo r the second.

The County, w ho tried four new m en, plated an unrepresentative side in to field, n ot one of the Foster brothers playing. W'hen they had lost four w ickets for 44 runs, Sim pson-H ayw ard went in and played a som ew hat rem arkable in n in g s; he scored 105 out of 140 in 80 m inutes, hittin g seventeen 4’s, and offered on ly one chance — when 44 to B ow rin g in the deep field off G ilbert. B row nell rem ained w hile 83 were made for the fifth w icket and was then caught at slip. Sim pson-H ayw ard follow ed up his success­ fu l batting by taking six w ickets fo r 13 runs, on ly B ow ring, who scored 37, m eeting w ith any success against him . In their second innings W orcestershire lost a couple o f w ickets for 88 runs by the cajl of tim e, Pearson carrying out his bat for 55. On the follow in g m orning the player-nam ed failed to add to his score, but Burns made 146 out of 285 in 140 m inu tes; he hit a 6 and sixteen 4’s, was m issed at 11 and 133, and, w ith Sw alw ell, added 113 for the sixth w icket in an hour. O xford, left w ith 463 to w in, lost half their w ickets for 54 by the end o f the day. On Saturday m orning the collapse continued, the innings closing for 130, leaving the County successful by the la rge m argin of 332 runs. H atfeild h it eigh t 4’s in his 54, for w hich he batted on ly 25 m inutes. Arnold took seven w ickets for 51 runs and, but for H atfeild’s hittin g, w ould have had fa r better figures.
