POUGHER OF LEICESTER

Sui,—Wirden has already supplied the details for which Mr. Mallalieu asks. A. D. Pougher died in 1926, and there is an account of his career in the 1927 edition (Part I, pp. 285-7), including a list of twenty-three further bowling feats. It also appears that he scored five centuries, all for Leicestershire, and visited Australia and South Africa once each.—Yours
