PREFA CE HAVE advocated always the teaching of history from local and immediate surroundings , on the ou principle that you must begin where y are . The force of the imagination upon conduct may be great, but to allow the imagination an illimitable field in conjuring up the past is risky . To this end , I set out some few years ago to write an “ Oundle Child ’ s ” “ History , when some of Older growth inquired , Why ” ’ out " of O undle s leave us Hence this record story . It is Often said that there is no room for originality of in the writing history , and , certainly, this is largely true with regard to my little book ; but I may claim to have spent much time in research and to have ‘ o B ut it not elucidated a few p ints . could have been put together without the kind help of many friends . To some I have expressed acknowledgment in the of course the narrative , and I cannot name them all ; but I desire to mention those to whom I am especially Cobthor ne indebted . To Mrs . Smith , of , Oundle , to of of Miss Smith, the Rectory, and to Miss Dixon , a Rose Cottage , the daughter of a lover of arch eology, I owe my sincere thanks for the loan of documents and papers . Dr . George Bidder, of Cambridge , Canon of Howard , late Dean Stamford , and Mr . A . H . M . l Spence , Of Pembroke College , Oxford , have kind y assisted me in confirming facts . To the late Rev . R . M . ’ tson . S er j ean , Rector of St Peter s , Northampton , iii IV PREFACE l I am greatly indebted , and it is especial y pleasing to mention the condition with whi ch he desired me to a of associate my cknowledgment the use of his notes . It was that I should make it known that any expense incurred by him in connection wi th the research into Oundelian matters was defrayed by the late Mr . R . P . Brereton , whose name is recalled by many with deep regard . Two other names I mention with gratitude—the l first is that of Mr . H . M . King, of Ound e School , “ ” with whom I have had many conversations , and who has added to his kindness by reading the proof him sheets . The other is that of to whose memory my book is dedicated and who alone read the MS . and gave me constant encouragement . My friendship one with him is of the greatest inspirations of my life . had of If he had lived , I hopes seeing the Story on ” h the Screen , which would have made the istory of - the old world town of Oundle live with a fuller vitality than print can give . But he has gone from shadows to reality . Perhaps some one else may come forward to make this possible . M W . S ALLEY LAW .

  • Kent County Cricketers a to Z
    Kent County Cricketers A to Z Part Two 1919-1939 By Derek Carlaw Statistics by John Winnifrith This collection of biographies have been written, on behalf of the ACS, by Derek Carlaw. For those readers wishing to obtain more detailed statistical information, it is recommended that a search is undertaken on the relevant pages of the CricketArchive website ( http://cricketarchive.com/ ). Kent County Cricketers A to Z Part Two 1919 to 1939 Introduction Part Two of the Kent A to Z covers the 92 cricketers who made their entry into first-class cricket for Kent between the wars. With 12 Championship titles, 330 wins and only 49 defeats, Yorkshire dominated throughout the two decades, but Kent could reasonably claim to be the most successful of the Southern counties, twice ending runners-up and in only three seasons failing to finish in the top half of the table. During those inter-war years, cricket was becoming increasingly professional. Of the names listed in the county averages in the 1921 Wisden, over 57% were amateurs. By 1931 the figure had fallen to 41%; and in the last pre-war season it was down to 33%. Kent, in common with one or two other counties, fought hard against the prevailing trend. Throughout the period, they stuck to their long- established policy of endeavouring to field a minimum of three amateurs in every match. In practice, they were quite frequently unable to do so, especially early in the season but, of the 92 cricketers listed in the following pages, 60, i.e. over 65%, were, in the idiom of the time, ‘Gentlemen’.

  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Friday 9
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION FRIDAY 9th JULY 2021 Lot 345 1 CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 9th JULY 2021 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down.
