Lieutenant Crake and Messrs. Penh all and Hildred gained fourteen points each; and in shooting off the tie for the second prize (a silver medal) and the third prize (a bronze medal) Mr. Hildred won the second and Mr. Penhall the third prize. A contest then took place between twelve members of the 1st company of Cinque Ports Rifles (Hastings) and twelve members of the 3rd company (Rye), ranges 200 and 300 yards, ten shots at each distance, when the Hastings company proved victorious, making 119 points to the Rye company's 114.
