YEOVIL v. AXMINSTER: Played on the West Hendford Ground, Yeovil, on Saturday, in splendid weather. Yeovil started the ball down the hill and immediately began to press, but the backs were equal to the occasion and by a determined rush play was transferred to the Yeovil 25. It was here kept for some time, but Passmore securing, he raced over the line and scored in the It corner. The place kick failed. Nothing further was scored up to half-time. On changing over, Yeovil tried hard to equalize but their efforts were not successful. At last Godfrey picked up in his own 25, and raced all down the slope, scoring the second try for the visitors, the place kick-a hard one-was a failure. Play was of a give and take character for the rest of the game, and, no further point being scored, Axminster left the field victorious by two tries (six points) to nil. The teams were: Yeovil-Back, F. Allen; three-quarter.backs, F. Walters, Gaylard, J. Carwood, and Hoare; halfbacks, J. Hutchings and McEnery; forwards, Pittard, J. Welch, Flower, G. Seabright, Turner, Whensley, Braine, and Farrant.  Axminster: Back, Pinsent; three-quarter backs, C. Gerrish, T. Watkins, W. Godfrey and Passmore, half-backs, Gunnell and Tapscott; forwards, Reatrick, Cummings, Bucknell, Rebjons, J. Hayman, A. Taylor, J. Denning and Mitchell. Referee: Dr. Kingston, Linesmen: Messrs. Chapman (Yeovil) and Moss (Axminster).

Insolvency Court: Re: Henry Jones, Bilton, Beer-retailer: – The first hearing of this insolvent was opposed by Mr. Hellings and supported by Mr. Edlin. The opposition was made on-behalf of Mr. Pincent, a creditor for £9, and it was grounded on the fact of the insolvent having vexatiously defended an action. Mr. Edlin contended that that objection was not within the meaning of the statutes that the action had not been defended; but only an appearance of time obtained, and this even had been done without the sanction of the insolvent. After a long conversation between the learned gentleman, His Honour decided that if the action had not been defended, there had been a vexatious delay obtained, and that therefore he should adjourn the petition ”sine die,” to allow the opposing creditors to take further proceedings. Mr. Edlin submitted that this would be a great hardship on the insolvent, for if Mr. Pincent’s debt was paid there would be an end to the opposition and suggested a short adjournment to enable the insolvent’s friends to make some arrangement in regard to this debt. Mr. Hellings, having assented to this course, his Honour adjourned the petition for six weeks, without protection.
