The congratulations may be on Grace's score of 288 in the match against Somerset, played at Bristol May 16-18, in which he scored 288, "his hundredth three-figure score in important cricket." However, nearer the date of his letter, he scored 118 playing for the Gentlemen against the Players at Lord's, July 8-10, his first 100 for the Gentlemen since 1876.
