I have now to explain that this law is equally disturbed in batting also; and by attention to the following observations, many a forward player may learn so to adapt his force to the inclination of his bat as not to be caught out, even although (as often happens to a man's great surprise) he plays over the ball! His career will be found rather short, not participating in the great contests after 1818, except one match in 1827, and another in 1830. The reason of this was that, owing to the result of the great single-wicket contest in 1818, he removed his name from the list of members of the Marylebone Club. 1825, after which his name for some time was kept on the list as an honorary member. The bat was one of Lord Frederick's, with his name written at full length by the noble lord himself; and we take this opportunity to remark that the name is spelt "Beauclerck," though we are now accustomed to always see it minus the "k". Beldham thought Mr. Budd's bowling better than Lord Frederick's; Beagley said the same.


At a great match, one player, being a much better batsman than the other, the bowler began to pitch the ball over the head of the better batsman when he was at the wicket. I have played with him many times, but he does not seem to me to do very much (of course I am speaking of a good wicket), but some come a little higher, others a little lower, some a little faster, some slower; on the middle leg is his favourite spot-two or three off the leg stick with a square deep who is not asleep, then a straighter one with a "bit of top on it"-the batsman tries to push to leg-there is a somewhat excited 's that? To write of Mr. Budd without saying much about Lord Frederick Beauclerk, Mr. Osbaldeston and Mr. Ward is impossible; for at that time they were inseparably associated in men's minds as the four great amateurs of the game. Lord Frederick was caught so near the bat that he lost his temper, and said it was not fair play.


Nonsense," he said, "you can't mean it." "Yes; play or pay, my Lord, we are in earnest, and shall claim the stakes! In these later days, however, most of the birdies and eagles are made by men wearing long slacks, which the old-timers would not have resented. You may meet a Ranjitsinhji, a Bonner, a Jessop, or a Frank Crawford; but if you don't meet these, the odds on you are as the odds on an arc light to a farthing dip. Eckert, Ralph (May 8, 2015).

On November 5, 1831, carrying 11 st. 2 lbs., he rode 200 miles in eight hours and forty-two minutes, having backed himself to go that distance in ten hours. 8. If before a star two or more balls be pocketed by the same stroke, including the ball played at, each having one life, the owner of the ball first struck has the option of starring; but if he refuse, and more than one remain, the persons to whom they belong must draw lots for the star.


Also a famous single-wicket player, having been engaged in many of that kind of contest with varied success. Mr. Budd, "attained to a kind of round-arm delivery (described as Clarke's), by which we rose decidedly superior to all the batsmen of the day. Mr. Ward could not play it, but he headed a party against us, and our new bowling was ignored." Tom Walker and Lord Frederick were of the tediously slow school; Lambert and Budd were several degrees faster. Lord Frederick was a very successful bowler, and inspired great confidence as a general: his bowling was at last beaten by men running into him. Apropos of Mr. Budd's own bat, Mr. Pycroft, in his Oxford Memories, writes as follows:-'Being a man of great strength and quickness, with fine wrist-play, five feet ten inches in height, and twelve stone in weight, no wonder he was a hard hitter, especially in days when bats were heavy. The concourse of people was very great: these were the days of the Luddites (rioters), and the magistrates warned us, that unless we would stop our game at seven o'clock, they could not answer for keeping the peace.
