Plymouth and District League
Tavistock (h)
County Match
Devon v Cornwall at Home Park.
EXETER CITY v TAVISTOCK.
Saturday, February 3rd.
At St James's Park in connection with the League, before about eight hundred spectators. Tavistock, who only brought ten men, started down the slope, but the City took up the running and a shot from Russell went behind. In spite of the slippery ground the play was fast, although the finishing touches were weak. A shot by Sellick was only partially cleared, and Thomas scored an easy goal. Matters equalised in the second half with Sturge on the ground, having fallen in dealing with another shot. The result was a draw, one goal to each side.
Exeter City:- Sturge; W. Wells and Fenwick; Morgan, Davidson, and Brooks; Sellick, Thomas, Reid, Andrews, and Russell.
DEVON V CORNWALL AT HOME PARK.
The return engagement was played at Home Park in ideal football weather, but only a small crowd attended. Selley scored for Cornwall after 25 minutes' play, and shortly before half-time Roche equalised. Ten minutes before the close of play Prideaux scored for Cornwall, who won by 2 goals to 1.
Devon team:- Dyer; Wells, Black; Lintott, Pethick, Ledington; Burgoyne, Sinclair, Roche, Crocker, and Rowe.
