The Pamphlet Collection of Sir Robert Stout: Volume 77

A Challenge

A Challenge.

The cricket players of Dunedin hereby challenge the cricket players of Wellington to a trial of skill at any place, at equal distance between the port of Otago and Port Nicholson. Due notice of the challenge to appear in the Wellington Independent, or by letter addressed to Mr Watson, Commercial Hotel, Dunedin.

History is silent as to whether the challenge was or was not accepted. The impression is Wellington funked.

Subscription lists were opened for the establishment of Anniversary sports and met with pretty general support, D. Gamick, Esq., being treasurer, and Mr H. B. Graham, secretary; and all members of committee were ready to receive additions, and public meetings in connection therewith held.
