Middlesex. M a y26, 27, and28. Withthe exception of the absence of the Hon. Alfred Lyttelton and Mr. A. P. Lucas, Middlesex had all its strength . The superiority of the Northern bowling , though , despite an advantage of 71 runs to the Southerners on the first hands, decidedthe matchin their favour; and chiefly through the good play of Scotton and Barnes, at the finish , they wonwith plenty in hand. Middlesex , though they made a good first score , were cheaply dismissed for 113 in their second innings , a creditable result mainly due to the extraordinary bowling of Attewell . Shrewsbury scored 70 out of 155 from the bat in the first innings of Notts. The chief merit of their success , though, wasdue to Scotton (104 notout) and Barnes (55) on the third day. The former got his runs without a mistake, andhis defence was one of the very best features of the match. Notts wonby six wickets . Notts, 164 and 186 ; total ,350.
