The championship was won by J. L.Black, Shandon, who defeated W. S. Ralph, Auckland, in tho final 2 up and 1 to play, and thus registered his fourth siiccessive win in this event. In . the semi-finals J. L. Black beat T. Morpeth, 4 and 3, and W. S. Ralph beat L. V.' Bellingham, 4 and 3. The playing; conditions were perfect x and it is doubtful if the course has ; ever been in such wonderful order as at present. Black thoroughly • deserved his success, which he achieved in r , spite of the fact that his second "shots ' were often astray. A fine match temperament and his ability to approachdead at critical stages of the game. : ultimately brought its reward. A good- '■" sized gallery followed the final,' which provided interest to the end. Playing in a medal competition, under handicap,' R. S. Alford, of Cambridge, had the third best card with a score of 76—5—71. A. H. Nicoll, also' of Cambridge, had a score of 82—8— ;' 74. •
