Mr. Campbell states that Mr. Tom Watson sends the following as the probable Liverpool team against the Hearts on Monday: Willie Donnelly; Archie Goldie and Tom Wilkie; George Hastings, Charlie Wilson, and Thomas Cleghorn; Robert Marshall, William Walker, Abe Hartley, Andy McCowie, and Joe Lumsden.
It will be recollected by many that Donnelly, Wilkie, Cleghorn, Marshall, and Walker were formerly associated with local clubs.
