This card comes from the Minor Counties Research Project - research is continuing on this scorecard which can be expected to change.
Monmouthshire won by an innings before lunch on the second day, after Devon had followed on 178 runs in arrears. For the winners, Steeples took 10 wickets in the match for 60 runs. In the Monmouthshire innings, F G Phillips and Williams put on 53 runs for the seventh wicket. There were 9 fours in Silverlock's 80. Some sources have P C
Phillips representing Monmouthshire in this match, but it was N C Phillips who played. Shortly after the last wicket fell, heavy rain fell which was reported as likely to have prevented any further play.
