Notes
--> Germantown Veterans batted on after winning

In the Belmont Veterans first innings W.N.Williams who opened the batting and carried his bat adopted a bizarre manner of dealing with the bowling of C.G.Wright, who bamboozled the other men, by standing ten feet outside his crease and making difficult bowling look surprisingly easy.
