Teignbridge are always dangerous opponents, and though the close of
their innings was decidedly of a processional character, Sim won
easily off his own bat. It will be noticed that Underwood and Mr. Tims
made 54 for _Britannia_, the rest nowhere!
On the return, on July 6th, Teignbridge brought an almost totally
different team; perhaps they discounted their adversaries too freely,
but it may have been as good an eleven or better. At any rate
_Britannia_ administered a good beating:--
"BRITANNIA."
