MARLBOROUGH RUGBY UNION.
I The Rugby Union met last evening at Priddle's Grosvenor Hotel, F. W. Dodson presiding. . On the accounts being tabled it was found that the result of the late representative^ match was a alight loss to the Union, whi<Jh, however, might be made up without much difficulty. A challenge was received from the . Nelspn Union for the 31st inst., and it was decided to send a representative team thither. It was also resolved to accept the challenge of the Wairarapa representative team- for i Sept. 9, to be played m Blenheim. § ; ; It may be mentioned that our Rugby Union had once or twice ; - challenged Wairarapa, but it had not been taken up, and it was only on learning that the Hawke!s Bay men had been beaten by a Marlborough .team, that the Wairarapas deemed it worth' while to tackle our men.
