Impatient cricket spectators gather near the square at the Oval during an interruption in play in the match between Surrey and Yorkshire. The illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News described the crowd as 'unruly' and reported an unsavoury incident..."When the umpires walked out...to inspect the pitch, during the Yorkshire and Surrey match, which was interrupted by rain, one of the more impatient members of the crowd kicked (Frank) Chester and struck at (Denis) Hendren. This cowardly on the two most innocent people involved in the matter is rendered more discreditable to the Oval crowd since Chester could not defend himself properly, having lost an arm in the war."
