Julie (mango)

The 'Julie' mango is a named mango cultivar that was made popular in the Caribbean.

History

The origin of the 'Julie' mango is not known for sure but recent genetic studies show that it was possibly descended from cultivars introduced to the Caribbean through Jamaica from Réunion.; its monoembryonic trait suggests it is descended from the Indian line of mangoes.

'Julie' was recognized for its outstanding flavor and its dwarf growth habit. It was introduced to the United States via south Florida by Lawrence Zill, a nurseryman and horticulturalist known for producing new mango varieties. Several Florida varieties are descended directly or indirectly from 'Julie', including 'Sophie Fry', 'Gary' and 'Carrie'. 'Julie' is also the parent of 'Graham', a variety from Trinidad.

'Julie' proved to be difficult to adapt to the humid climate of Florida, however, and was very susceptible to fungus, making it unsuitable for commercial growing. Nevertheless, the variety was sold as nursery stock for home growing and continues to be done so on a limited scale. It remains a popular variety in the West Indies, where it is often referred to as 'Saint Julian' mango.

In France, the name was only mildly popular in the beginning of the 20th century and its usage nearly disappeared between 1940 and 1970.

Dunn (London cricketer)

Dunn (first name and dates unknown) was an English cricketer who played for London Cricket Club in major matches during the 1730s. He was evidently a top order batsman.

Career

Dunn is mentioned in 1735 re two matches and in 1739 re one other. On Saturday, 7 June 1735, he played for London versus Surrey at Moulsey Hurst, London winning the game by 9 wickets with Dunn and "Mr Wheatley, the distiller" the two not out batsmen at the end. He played in a single wicket match on Monday, 11 August 1735 for Three of London against Four of London at Kennington Common.

Dunn was not mentioned by contemporary sources again until 1739 when he played for London versus Kingston & Moulsey at Kennington Common on Thursday, 19 July. His team lost by 3 runs. Dunn was brought in as a replacement for this game along with Lord John Philip Sackville and John Bowra after London had lost its previous match. The selection of the trio was described as "the Londoners turning out three bad men who played on Moulsey Hurst" while Dunn and his colleagues were called "three very good gamesters".
