Text Appearing Before Image:
h kindly invited us to be theirguests. The people of Montreal took a very keeninterest in all our movements, and large crowdsassembled to watch the match. The new^spaperspaid great attention to all our doings. Theirreports of the matches were very funny, if notvery accurate. Neither the reporters nor thespectators seemed to understand the game verythoroughly, and we were often amused at theexcitement when a catch was made off a bumpball. From Montreal w^e travelled to the Dominioncapital, Ottawa, where we took up our quartersat the Russell House, and were very well lookedafter by the proprietor. Canadian hotel-keepersseem to keep their bars open all night, and I wasawakened about half-past two one morning by anexciting discussion which was going on in thebar. Recognising the voice of Farrands, whomwe took out as our umpire, I listened to the con-versation, and overheard a gentleman braggingabout his own cricketing abilities, and declaringthat he had scored freely off Freemans bowling.
