To the Editor of the "Norra-Cama Datty News."
Sir,—Whilst retwning from one of the Race Course Clubs a few evenings ago, the question arose as to where the game was first played. My two fellow bowlers who both hailed from: Scotland stated that the game was first known to have been played somewhere in Devonshire, whereas from inquiries made when I was in the Old Country three years algo, the game as first played some hundreds of years ago upon greens which is now known as Kentish Town, London N. W.
This rather quashes the information that I obtained a few years back that Sardinia could claim to be the country where the popular game was' first played.
Anyway, as a general seeker after information, perhaps some others among the local authorities will be able to give me further information.
I am, ete., Baox-Hanp.
