Saturday's Cricket. -: Favourable weather for cricket was experienced on Saturday. The Whitwood-A.Stars match was, of course, the chief draw, and was watched by a large crowd of spectators. The results of the play in the various matches are given below : SENIOR DIVISION-IVETT TROPHY. STARS v. WHITWOOD A. Between 600 and 800 spectators were present on Saturday afternoon on the St. Helens ground, where two cup-matches were being played, but the chief attraction was the contest between the Stars and the Whitwoodian champions, a large contingent of Ipswichian folk having journeyed thither in cabs and other conveyances. There was also a very fair sprinkling of ladies, and the scene all round presented a pretty picture of animation. The loveliest of weather prevailed from about 2 o'clock until the stumps were drawn, and the cricket display during that time was of the most interesting description. The felding of the Whitwood team was generally very good, the individual efforts of Dan. Carew and A. B. Macgregor calling forth frequent applause, and Charlie Hooper, as is usual with him, gave a careful and really creditable exposition of batting. Play was commenced at about 3 o'clock, Messrs. A. J. Stephenson and R. M'Gill having taken up their positions as umpires, the not-out batsmen being Hooper and Jones. Harry Jones took the strike to Burns, whose first ball nicely placed into the hands of Arthur Nunn at square-leg; 1-7-10. This was a bad start for the Stars, but was duly appreciated by the Whitwood followers. P. Real was the next man, and Burns's second ball came in very nastily from the leg and struck Real in the stomach, causing him to feel somewhat uncomfortable for a time. Whalley opened from the railway end, and both batsmen scored 3 each off the second and third balls respectively, and shortly after Hooper spanked a ball of Burns's beautifully to leg for 4. The Stars followers now began to be jubilant, especially when M'Gregor misjudged a lofty hit, by Real off Whalley, at long-off, the fieldeman over running the catch. Real was, however, well taken at mid-wicket off Burns by Dan Carew -2-12-32 - the retiring batsman having made several pretty carpet drives. Pearson came in to assist Hooper to run a 3-er off Burns and 4 for a fine drive off Whalley, when, after making a single, the Lockyer-cum-Laidley crack batsman was cleaned bowled off his pads by Burns; 3-1-40. M'Murdy was nearly stumped by Thompson off the first ball he received from Burns, and, directly afterwards, he put up a lofty hit off Whalley at mid-wicket but W. Linsday could not get back to it. When the score stood at 50 Lindsay relieved J. Burns, who, in turn, took the ball from Whalley, who then came on at Lindsay's end. M'Murdy did not seem "at home" at the crease, and skied one off Burns to cover-point, but Heiner could not get to it to effect the catch ; he was smartly stumped by Thompson off Whalley; 4-4-52. J. J. Byrne and Hooper ran the score up to 66, when Lindsay relieved Burns, and the fast bowler Lindsay cracked Byrne's fingers (where were the batting gloves?), the batsman dropping the willow in an instant, shortly after which he was splendidly taken in the slips by Dan Carew with one hand, off Lindsay; 6-4-69. Parkinson was the next man, and commenced operations at once, Parkie seeming to like Whalley's slow pitched balls, negotiating several braces of them. The score was increased to 90 when he snicked one off Whalley into Burns's hands at slip; 6-12-90. Once Parkie had a narrow squeak of being ran out, when, without waiting for the umpire's decision, Whalley hauled his hat to the winds and yelled, "Out! Up with the ball." Mr. Stephenson, however, cannot be bluffed that way. Caffrey filled the vacancy, when Arthur Nunn relieved Whalley at the top end, and J. M. Campbell took the ball from Lindsay at the end nearest the railway. Caffrey negoiated a pretty hit to square-leg off Nunn's first ball, some laughter being caused by a lady nearby trying to stop the career of the ball with her parasol. Only 2 were run for the hit. After 5 more runs had been secured, during which a couple of appeals were made for leg-before decisions to Caffrey, Arthur Nunn succeeded in clean bowling Hooper with an excellent length ball: 7-65-107. Hooper was loudly applauded on returning to the pavilion, his contribution being marked by steadiness, and the only chance he gave was when his score reached 23, he then putting up a lofty snick off Burns behind the wickets, which Sid. Nunn tried for but failed to hold. Lossberg went in simply to put up a hit in Whalley's direction off Nunn, and he came back with a blob; 8-0-107. H. Campbell was the next man, and he and Caffrey kept the "ball rolling" fairly well, until D. Carew relieved J. M. Campbell, previous to which T. Campbell drove one back right into Arthur Nunn's hands, and, in his anxiety, the bowler failed to accept the chance, but Bill Lindsay directly afterwards effected a beautiful catch at leg off Dan Carew, thus disposing of H. Campbell: 9-7-124. H. Dalton was the last man, and Caffrey negotiated a brace off Carew, who then clean bowled the tail batsman: 10-17-128. Caffrey playing in nice style for the second highest score, and Captain Dalton carried out his bat for nil. Not much time was lost, and J. Burns and Fred Thompson opened the innings on behalf of the Whitwood Club, P. Real and W. M'Murdy being the bowlers, Burns taking the strike to Real, opposite whom the Whitwoodian trundler did not apparently feel at all comfortable, and after making 6 he was neatly taken in the slips by M'Murdy off Real; 1-6-8. Dan Carew filled the vacancy only to see Fred Thompson cleaned bowled by M'Murdy; 2-2-8. Whalley then joined partnerehip with Dan Carew, which was not dissolved at call of time, although the first ball Whalley received from M'Murdy he, it is alleged, snicked it into Charlie Hooper's hands, when a unanimous appeal from the Stars rent the air, but Mr M'Gill's decision was in favour of the batsman, Whalley again distinguishing himself by a little "bluffing ;" he, however, then became scorer-in-chief, lifting M'Murdy in line style twice over the fence for a fourer each time. In the meantime there were several appeals for leg-before decisions, and Whalley played an uppish one in the slips off M'Murdy, Parkinson trying his hardest to take it. When the score stood at 27, Pearson relieved M'Murdy and had only one over, after which time was called, Whalley being not out 16, and Dan Carew not out 5, the score being-two wickets down for 33 runs. Bowling for the Whitwoodians, J. Burns secured three wickets for 26 runs (he also bowled down seven maiden overs), Dan. Carew two for 12, J. Whalley two for 54, W. Lindsay one for 5, Arthur Nunn two for 14, and J. M. Campbell none for 8 (he also bowled two no balls; there were seven sundries). Bowling for the Stars, P. Real captured one wicket for 9 runs, W. M'Murdy one for 19 runs, and C. Pearson no wickets for one run; there were 4 sundries.

Notes:

By the time he was 18, David Nunn had four convictions for poaching, according to the Bury Prison Register dated 23 Sep 1846.
The fourth conviction earned him a fine of 20 shillings, costs 13 shillings. It's not clear if the 20 shillings included the costs but either way it was a substantial fine for "an offence against the Game Laws at Chevington".
We can surmise that he may have been poaching to feed himself and other family members but whatever the truth, it was against the law and he was caught. The record describes David as 5ft 5ins, pale complexion, brown hair, grey eyes, long visage, of good health with clean clothes. He could not read or write.
Four years later, it was reported in the Bury and Norwich Post on 16 April 1851, p2, in a list of convictions at Chevington that ... David Nunn and Wm. Death, offence against game laws at Chevington; 2 months.
So, he spent time in jail for his misdeamours as well.
