notes

We've presumed the GH's (otherwise unknown) Cowan to be our (John) Cameron, in line with our teamlines of the period. The GH reports that Cowlairs played the match with only ten men. SR, however, refers to Cowlairs starting the game with nine men and starting the second half with “a full team”. We may be missing one.
