Champion, Clayton, and Finder did not bat. i t> •> <► (7) Gloucestershire *’• Sussex- Clifton, Aug. 24, 25, and 20. Heavy scores were anticipated, and these expectations were fulfilled. Mr. \V. G. Grace bad to be content with 78 out of 127 made while he was in. and Mr. Filgate claimed the foremost position with a well-got score of 93, though not one void of mistakes. Sussex began well as the fall of the first wicket showed 59 and of the second 98 runs. Messrs. Greenfield and Cotterill then effected an alliance of some importance to the interests of Sussex. The former was badly missed at mid-on, when he had got 36, and Gloucestershire suffered heavily for the mistakes. The two amateurs during their partnership put on 148 runs, and the Cambridge captain in all realised 126. Three wickets were down for 246, but the aggregate was only 281, the last five wickets adding 20 runs. The Sussex eleven did well to get Mr. \Y. G. Grace caught at point for 7 in his second innings, hut their very unsafe fielding enabled the Doctor to score 68, and Mr. Gilbert 43. At the end the match was drawn, Gloucestershire being 233 runs on with four wickets to fall. Gloucestershire, 342 and 172 (six wickets) ; total, 574. Sussex, 281. (8) Gloucestershire v. Surrey. Clifton, Aug. 29 and 30. The last match of the season and the least satisfactory, owing to unfavourable weather. Mr. Read (48) and Pooley (36) were in form, or Surrey would have fared badly. As it w’as they scored 84, and Barratt’s 11 was the only other double figure. A great score was expected of the Gloucestershire eleven, but oddly they were dismissed for the smallest aggregate obtained in any of their home matches during 1876. Mr. G. F. Grace hit hard for 88. Mr. Townsend played good cricket for 31, and the other double figures wrere those of Mr. W. G. Grace 29, Taylor 23 not out, and Moberley 20. At the end of the second day an innings to each side had been completed, and Street and Jones had gone in for Surrey and scored 2 runs, llain altogether interfered with the play on the third day, and when the game was abandoned Surrey had made 78 for the loss of four wickets. Mr. Carmichael, a youngster who had only once before played for Surrey, got 30 runs in genuine form, and will in all probability 4 train on." Gloucestershire, 158. Surrey, 119 and 78 (four wickets) ; total 197. W. G. Grace. Ovoits. Maidens. 11 22 Ruus. Wicket 6
