Power : a very good hitter , but does not play with quite a straight bat , but likely to get runs quickly if allowed to stop in. *G. H. Thring : a good change bowler , slow round, with break from the off; rather uncertain as a bat. W E L L I N G T O N C O L L E G E . Captain for 1879 , H. Y. Beale . R e s u l t so fM a t c h e s .
