Mr. Charles Barclay, J.P., of the Harrow Eltven of 1856 and 1857, died at the Manor House, Bayford, Herts., on January 2nd. As he was born On October 2nd, 1837, he was iu his seventy-third year at the time of his death. He was a very steady batsman with a souDd defence, and was the wicket­ keeper of the side. Eton were not met in 1856, and in the match of 1857 he made only 2 and 9 not out. In the latter year Harrow played thirteen matches, winning nine, losing one (by .12 runs) and drawing three, and Mr. Barclay stumped thirteen men and caught eleven. During the two years he was in the side, the professionals engaged at Harrow were Gilbey, Wisden and Reynolds. Proceeding to Trinity College, Cambiidge, Mr. Barclay played occasionally for the University in 1859 and 1860 but did not obtain his Blue. In the latter year, however, he played against Oxford at tennis, both in the singles and doubles. His father, Mr. R. Barclay, was a member of the Harrow Eleven of 1825. J. D. B. D. H ayward . Daniel Hayward, brother of the famous Tom Hayward of Cambridge and father of the present-day Surrey batsman, died at Cambridge early on Monday morning in his seventy-eighth year. He wasborn at Chatteris, near Cambridge, on October 19th, 1832, being a son of Daniel Hayward, of Mitcham, flfho played for Surrey in 1847 and sub­ sequently for Cambridgeshire and the Cam­ bridge Town Club. The deceased himself appeared once for Surrey in 1854, but owing to a mistake, it being thought that he was born in the County, as the Haywards were a very old Mitcham family : it was against Sussex at Brighton, and it is an interesting fact that both the father and grandfather of the Tom Hayward of to-day have played for Surrey. Daniel Hayward began to play for Cambridgeshire in 1860, and three seasons later, when 30 years of age, made his first appearance at Lord’s. He was a good long- stop and bat, and 5 ft. 6 in. in height. Since 1869 be had been landlord of the “ Prince Regent,” a well-known sportiDg resort in Cambridge, and for many years bad cairied on an athletic business. LTJDGROVE v.

Lionel Ford, headmaster of Rep- ton School, Burton-on-Trent, has been ap­ pointed headmaster of Harrow School, in succession to Dr. Wood. The Rev. Lionel George Bridges Justice Ford, a member of the famous cricket brotherhood, is in his 45th year. He was educated at Repton, and at King’s College, Cambridge, where he distinguished himself in Classics, and took the Chancellor’s medal. In 1887 he was president of the Cambridge Union, and from 1888 to 1901 an assistant- master at Eton, in the latter year becoming headmaster at Repton, where during his rule many improvements have been carried out, including the erection of a new school house, science blocks, gymnasium, aud baths, and additions to the chapel and playing fields. He has been Select Preacher at Cambridge University. Mr. Ford has pro­ duced Essays on Athletics and Home Pre­ paration for School Life. He married in 1904 Mary Catherine, daughter of Dr. Talbot, Bishop of Southwark. For three years, commencing in 1882, he was in the Repton Eleven, being captain in his last season, when he svas the most suc­ cessful batsmen on the side and averaged 2814 for fourteen completed innings. He had the personal satisfaction of leading his side to victory in both Public School matches, Malvern being beaten by 67 runs and Up­ pingham by as much as an inning3 and 141 runs. Among his contemporaries in the Repton Eleven were his brother, Mr. F. G. J. Ford, and Messrs. A. H. J. Cochrane and W. T. Graburn. In 1884 it was sail of him :—“ Most energetic and successful cap­ tain ; very brilliant bat, driving terribly hard, with good defence; very useful behind the wickets,” and, in the following year, “ Bril­ liant bat., hits very hard, but somewhat un­ certain ; bowls slow, with varying pace and pitch, generally taking wickets ; outlandish action; good field.” He did not obtain his Blue, but he made some very large scores whilst in residence, especially for King’s and Clare in Long Vacation cricket, among the innings being 254 v. Corpus L.V.C. in 1885 and 199 v. Cavendish L.V.C. two years later. Afterwards he played several inning 3 of over a hundred for Windsor Home Park, and in one match—against Coldstream Guards in July, 1894—put on 183 runs for the last wicket in partnership with Mr. C. H. Allcock. HAMPSTEAD v. U.C.S.—Played at Hampstead on May 28. H. A. Gilbert, the old Oxonion, bowled well for Hampstead, taking three wickets for 19 runs. U.C.S. P. H. Wells, c Beaton, C. C.
