Rain prevented any play after 3.30 on the first day ; but during the time available the visitors scored 207 lor 6 , W . E. Thompson and Broughton, who added well over 100 for the third wicket together, batting finely. On Tuesday Suffolk only just escaped defeat, their last two men being together with 111 still wanted when time came to their relief. Conditions generally were against the batsmen on that day, and Oscar Mortimer, who was highest scorer in each innings of Suffolk, deserved considerable credit. Penfold and Day were most prominent as bowlers. L in c o ln sh ir e . First Innings. E. Pullein, c Fosdick, b Bassett ... W . E. Thompson, b Penfold Day, c Busher, b Penfold...

Norfolk v. Staffordshire. At Norwich, August 13 and 14. This was quite one of the games of the season, and deserved far more attention than the press generally gave it. Last se tson Norfolk were undefeated in the championship, and Staffordshire, runners up and also undefeated, challenged for a deciding match ; but through causes which resulted in some rather heated debate at the time the match fell through. At Stoke this year, with all the worst of the luck, Norfolk went under by an innings. They were naturally keen on winning the return, which was started on a slow wicket giving the bowlers help ; but a win for them looked very unlikely when, after Falcon and Collinson had given the side a good start, the rest collapsed before Barnes, who bowled in his best form and took all but one wicket. Staffordshire (handicapped by Percy Briggs’s inability to bat through illness), found runs quite as difficult to make against Falcon and Falconer, and only managed to scrape a lead of a single. Again the first wicket of Norfolk was remunerative, and the succeeding batsmen did little ; and at call of time the home side were only 82 on with two wickets to fall. But one of their best batsmen, Thurgar, was not out, and in the morning Watson stayed with him while the score was increased by 50 for the ninth wicket in 40 minutes. The wicket had dried, but was never quite easy, and Staffordshire had to struggle desperately for runs. At lunch they had 5 out for 35; afterwards Bernard Meakin and Deyes, the Yorkshiremaii, made a gallant effort, but in the end Norfolk won by 35 runs. Barnes, Deyes, Falcon and Falconer all had fine analyses ; it is a question whether the earlier replacement of Morgan by Deyes at the crease might not have changed the result ; but of course being wise after the event is easy.
