To-night the British party will be entertained to a smoke concert at the Concert Chamber, and on Friday they will be the guests of the Wellington Club for the day. As the British team is to break up at the week-end, as some leave for Australia to-morrow, and a party of twenty-five leave for Auckland on Saturday morning to catch the Aorangi for Vancouver, a reunion of the team was held in the Grand Hotel last evening. Members agreed that the tour had been a great success, and something of an education, and they would return to England with the most pleasant and kindly feelings about Australia and New Zealand, and the bowlers they had met on the first tour of a British bowling team to the Antipodes.
