A BOY OF THE OLD BRIGADE.
The great spot player, Billy Mitchell, is in South Africa giving exh-bi-tions, and it is just possible that he may turn his attention towards these States next season (says the “Referee”). The arrival of such a great player as Mitchell (Bradley’s Boy) would be hailed with much satisfaction out here, and it is, therefore, to be hoped that our anticipations may be realised. During a game in Capetown. he put up a fine break of 455, and received £lO for same from the Bonzoline Billiard Ball Company, having made the break with bonzoline balls. Mitchell made a break ofj 1621 (536 spots) at the Westminster Aquarium in November, 1885."
