But never let it be said that the Club went down without protesting-and protesting pretty vigorously, too, if to no purpose. The display of the Club: defence, pierced. as it was on three occasions, was worthy of a better team. They held the soldiers' clever front rauk as they liave not yet been held this season, and those of us who look to the Cornwalls to give us a glimpse of what we all too sel dam witness in this Colony-clean, ourpet-sweeping passes. delightful combination, accurate wondering what bad shooting -- were come to them.

They were absolutely out of joint, and never bar moniser. Yet they were always trying. although perhaps realising the fatility of it all.
