On Saturday, 12th instant, the Britannia and Denison Clubs met on the Point, Kiama, for the purpose of playing a friendly game of cricket - the consideration being a dinner at Adams'. The Britannia men went in first, and did not give up the bat till they had run up to the fine score of 83 for their first innings.
The rain which had been falling lightly for some time previous, now came down heavily. the Denison men, however, nothing daunted, went to the Wickets, and managed, after a very unpleasant innings, to score 42 - leaving Kiama 41 ahead.
Only two or three of the Britannia men had time to get their second innings by six o'clock, at which time the stumps were drawn by mutual consent, and the parties retired to Adams', both weary and wet.
The dinner passed off well; and it was determined that the match should be concluded on the following Monday afternoon.
The weather on Monday was all that could be wished; and between two and three o'clock the stumps were pitched, and the game commenced, the Britannias closing their second innings for 59, making a total of 142.
In their second innings, the Gerringong men struggled hard to bring their scoring paper up, but it was no use, the fates were dead against them - second innings amounted to only 38, making a total of 80; the Britannia club being the victor in one innings.
The return match will take place on Wednesday, 6th February.
