"REsr."—In some notes which a distin- guished Orientalist has sent me for my ' Author and Printer'occurs the following :— "To the present day I do not myself know the exact meaning of the contraction 'reap.' Some writers (e.g. Weber, the Orientalist) use it fre- quently, and though I have often asked Germans, I have never got a clear definition of its meaning ^yeber seems to use it as almost equivalent to our 'i.e.*,' or'in other words'; but in that cose, of what is it a contraction (of Latin or German)?" What is it ? and what does it mean ? F. HOWARD COLLINS. Iddesleigh, Torquay. CRICKET: EARLIEST MENTION.—Dr. Wil- liamson, in his recently published 'Guild- ford in the Olden Time,' refers (p. 109) to the fact that "the earliest mention of cricket occurs in con- nexion with the evidence of certain scholars from the Free School of Guildford in the fortieth year of Elizabeth In l."Vis 'John Derrick, gentleman, one of the Queen's majestie's Coroners' for Surrey, aged fifty-nine, gave evidence that he had known the land for fifty years or more He also declared that when lie wns a scholar in the Free School of Gnildford he and several of his fellows 'did runne and play there at crickett and other plaies,' and also that the same was used for the baiting of bears in the said town until it was enclosed." Dr. Williamson adds that this evidence, "which is very carefully recorded in the town miiks. forms the earliest mention of the game of cricket that Dr. Murray was able to trace for the purposes of his dictionary." This would date cricket back to 1548, at east. Is there any earlier record ? FRANK SCHLOESSER. 15, Grosvenor Road, Westminster.
