Bucks had 80 minutes to score 111 and won with two minutes to spare.
Fawcus 6 x 4 in his 65.
There was a record crowd.
RJ Shaw, of the Royal Navy, was the son of Bishop Shaw, whose two older sons had been killed in the war.
The score has been amended to remove four from Franklin and the Bucks total in the second innings, also
taking four off the bowling of Burton as Franklin hit a further boundary after the match had been won
