12 THE ASHBURIAN At 1 o ' clock the teams ajourned for lunch, which Colonel Hooper very kindly provided. After lunch Colonel Hooper and the two Head-Masters gave short addresses. The game was then resumed, B.S.C. came out for 65 runs and A.C. went in once more and this time were dismissed for 45 runs. Taking the field again B.S.C. made a good start getting 3 wickets for 2 runs. Things then began to liven up and there were three wickets to fall and B.S.C. needed 7 runs to win. Two wickets fell and still they needed 3 runs to win. Unfortunately there was an easy catch dropped and thus we lost the game, B.S.C. beat us by 5 runs. We take this opportunity of thanking Colonel Hooper for his kindness in lending us his grounds for the game and for enter- taining us so well.

Hull was first settled by the Ottawa Ball Team who were in the habit of killing their umpires on the banks of the Ottawa River as far back as 1798, Rip Van Winkle once went through Hull and calling at the first beer-garden for a high-ball, drank it and staggering on to the Laurentians, slept for 20 years, that is why no one to this day blames him. Hull is connected with the Parliament Buildings by the Hull and Ottawa Electric Rly. Co., the Ferry and the Inter- provincial Bridge. Having been robbed of all personality years ago, it has nothing to conceal, its windows disclosing its succulent home life are always open to the passing American traveller at all hours of the day or night enabling him to get the most vivid impressions of Canada. It contains about four miles of Ontario Mud Roads, children and bed clothes and rises to a height of 100 feet above the Sparks Street level. Hull and Clarkston have been deadly rivals in a sleeping contest, no one knows which will win. Hull is sustained and soothed by the Canadian Francais Cemetery and Clarkston has Beech Wood Cemetery. It is fortunate that Ottawa lies between them, otherwise the banner of the ready-made neckties, the Sunday silk hat and the 20th
