Rain though , on the second day, caused the gamesubsequently to go all against Surrey, and a brilliant second innings of Mr. C. T. Studd effectually disposed of any chance they might otherwise have had. Mr. Studd wentin with the total at 31, and was not out at the finish , scoring 175 out of 276 while he was in.

But for Mr. W. W. Read, Surrey would have made a poor show with the bat; in the first innings he scored 70 out of 163 , in the second innings 50 of 113 from the bat. Mr. C. R.
