Ansley Victoria v Freasley

Played at Ansley – These teams had a field day on Saturday. A correspondent says great credit is due to the home team for the way in which they acquitted themselves, the fielding being excellent. The Vics. have lost a few old members, but, notwithstanding this, they appear to be in better form than ever.
