Forbes (captain), a batsman of difiVavnt class from any other public-school player in this or most years ; ni.ornilicent hitter all round, plays every ball hard, possessing withal a good defence : useful bowler with break-back, but too short-pitched : a good field and c vtch, and magnificent thrower: his management of the side at Lord’s was much approved. *E, J. Ruggles.Brise, a useful bar, i( cutting” capitally, and with good, strong, forward play, but weak on his legs, owing to a certain timidity; not an extraordinary field, but made a good catch at \ j ,rd>. IL Whitfield has fallen off rather in his bowling, appearing to have lost confidence in that department, but has developed a capital and very strong defence : with a little more power will do very well as a batsman. A safe and fair field at short-slip; Captain in 1877. Bon. Ivo Bliql t. Xext
