I have lived to the age of seventy-one (hence the title of this work), and until some six months ago the writing of my reminiscences never occurred to me. Indeed had it not been for the fact of my meeting with an old friend—almost accidentally the ensuing pages would never have been written. Like most cricketers, I have unfortunately kept comparatively few records of my long career. Luckily I am possessed of an excellent memory, and with this and the aid of many an old volume kindly lent to me by various gentlemen I have been able to complete my somewhat difficult task. I have given a short sketch of the state of the national game at the time of my birth; how I learnt both batting and bowling when a boy ; have described my connection with Clarke’s old All England Eleven, and afterwards with the United; Vlii PREFACE. my visit with the first team to America in 1859; with Stephenson’s team to Australia in 1861, and with Parr’s more famous one in 1863; have given an account of my seven years’ residence in the Antipodes, and the close of my career after my return to England in 1871.

  • Race and Cricket: the West Indies and England At
    RACE AND CRICKET: THE WEST INDIES AND ENGLAND AT LORD’S, 1963 by HAROLD RICHARD HERBERT HARRIS Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Arlington in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON August 2011 Copyright © by Harold Harris 2011 All Rights Reserved To Romelee, Chamie and Audie ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My journey began in Antigua, West Indies where I played cricket as a boy on the small acreage owned by my family. I played the game in Elementary and Secondary School, and represented The Leeward Islands’ Teachers’ Training College on its cricket team in contests against various clubs from 1964 to 1966. My playing days ended after I moved away from St Catharines, Ontario, Canada, where I represented Ridley Cricket Club against teams as distant as 100 miles away. The faculty at the University of Texas at Arlington has been a source of inspiration to me during my tenure there. Alusine Jalloh, my Dissertation Committee Chairman, challenged me to look beyond my pre-set Master’s Degree horizon during our initial conversation in 2000. He has been inspirational, conscientious and instructive; qualities that helped set a pattern for my own discipline. I am particularly indebted to him for his unwavering support which was indispensable to the inclusion of a chapter, which I authored, in The United States and West Africa: Interactions and Relations , which was published in 2008; and I am very grateful to Stephen Reinhardt for suggesting the sport of cricket as an area of study for my dissertation.

    Local History 2020 January 2020: COLWICK HALL - THE MUSTERS AND BYRON FAMILIES Our meeting in January was a talk on Colwick Hall, the Musters and Byron families given by Dorothy Ritchie and enthusiastically attended by 50 members. Dorothy began the talk by telling us that there has been a hall on the site since Saxon times and that the hall was the ancestral home of the Byron family. However, there is no evidence that Lord Byron ever stayed there. Dorothy then took us back to the early history of the site. Colwick itself has been occupied since prehistoric times and the Domesday Book records a timber homestead owned by Sir William Peverell, the illegitimate son of William the Conqueror. The hall was occupied by the De Colwyck family until near the end of the 14th century when it passed to the Byron family through marriage. In the 1530s Newstead parish was granted to Sir John Byron, although the family still regarded Colwick as their main residence. Sir John rebuilt the church next to the hall in the 16th century after the dissolution of the monasteries. He died in 1567 and was buried in the church. By the 1640s a later Sir John Byron was renovating Newstead and had run up debts of £28,000, so sold the Colwick estate to Sir James Stonehouse a London merchant to pay off his debts. Sir James repaired the church in 1643 and added a steeple. He sold the estate to Sir John Musters, another wealthy London merchant and in 1684 Sir John had the church tower and chancel restored and battlements added to the nave.
