FOURTH DAY.
Play was resumed on Friday, and tho United Twenty-two were most successful in disposing of their opponents for 73 runs. This is the smallest score yet made in the colonies by the Eleven. The Twenty-two went in for their second innings and scored 66, but time did not allow the English Eleven to finish the match, which was therefore drawn. Had it been continued there is every reason to believe the Colonial team might have been victorious and thus secured" the first victory of the tour. After the match the Eleven were escorted to the steamer City of Dunedin by a fleet of watermen's boats, and after they had been duly wished good bye to started for Canterbury, where they ploy their nest match.
