J. Brune, Universities Club , Jermyn Street , London, W. Middlesex , not unlike Gloucestershire , a county of amateurs , if not quite so dependent on themas the Western shire . Hence an inequality in the weights sometimes , and a variation in the compositions of the elevens that must un- settle . With such batsmen as I. D. Walker, C. E. Green, W. H. Hadow, and W. G. Gilbert , something like a large score is a certainty , but the bowling is , or ought to be, very far from formidable , though Mr. Rutter does succeed in enticing batsmen to their ruin, and even Mr. I. D. Walker's " lobs " have imperilled wickets . With Northern bowling Middlesex would be invincible , but at present Middlesex is afflicted with the plague of the South, and there is not abowler in sight .
