Torquay Times, and South Devon Advertiser: Friday 14th December 1894

Football: The composition of the Newton team is somewhat uncertain, owing to the fact that Newton College are playing a team of Old Newtonians on the College ground. This will probably deprive Newton of the services of H. B. Taylor (who gained his “blue” at Cambridge and played v. Oxford on Wednesday) and C. L. Donaldson. A H. M. Cox is ill with Quinsey. The probable team will be: Pinsent, Greenfield, Elwell, Pearce, Pictor, Wells, White, Sellicks Burns, Ellion, Hobson, Dunn, Curtis, Cowley and Baker.
