George Heenan was a leading cricketer playing for Wellington; Sjn,—Kindly allow me a few lines to refute the charge of having backed out of the team going to Canterbury made iu your Saturday’s issue, for as I am the only member left behind, and there can be no doubt as to whom the words refer. Living as I do in an out-of-the-way place, I had no opportunity of learning what arrangements were being made ; and although the Secretary to the Association promised to send me, information, I received .none. The result was, that when I arrived in Wellington by train on Thursday evening, ready to start for Canterbury, I was met by the information that the team had already sailed. The Secretary to the Association had left word that I was to follow next day ; this I declined to do, as I should probably have arrived in Christchurch on the day of the match, and, being a wretched sailor, should have been totally unfit to play.—l am, &c., ' "G C. Heenan Wellington, April 12. [M[r Heenan has evidently been the victim of circumstances, and assuming what he says to be correct, our correspondent has displayed an unpardonable amount of laxity; for, as a cricketer, surely he should have made inquiries, and obtained information for himself. Further, inasmuch as Mr Heenan had ample opportunity of arriving in Christchurch before dawn of the day of the match, we hold to the opinion expressed on Saturday, for' even taking Mr Heenan’s statement as correct and we are credibly informed very differently—he has displayed an unsportsmanlike, as well as ungentlemanly spirit—firstly, in not troubling to familiarise himself with the movements of the team ; and secondly, in refusing to proceed to Christchurch, although he must have known that ho would be required to leave for that city on Thursday evening last. — Ed.
