when he Was well caught by Mr Byrne. Mr. Oakes made
a good 7, when he was run out; the total number of runs
made being 49. The Netherton gentlemen then went in,

match by 48 runs. Mr. Clifton was the captain of the
Stourbridge team, and no doubt cpntributed materially to
their success by the skilful way in which he placed his
field. The following are the scores:—
