Notes
Ged Martin (see References) offers this brief biography: ‘Alban Arnold, from Malvern, was 'a vigorous batsman and a useful wicket-keeper' who had won his cricket Blue against Oxford, and also turned out for Hampshire — managing to take an Honours degree in Languages in the process. He was killed on the Somme in July 1916, and his body was never recovered. 'He would probably have developed into a cricketer of very high class,' pronounced Wisden.'
