with the Hon. Ivo Bligh in 1882–83, and again with Shaw and Shrewsbury in 1886–87. He played in every match of all three tours. On the first of those tours, after scoring 75 at Sydney against New South Wales, a local wag presented Barlow with a commemorative belt. "I thought we had the champion sticker in Alec Bannerman," said the wag, "but you've fairly won the belt." Late life Near the end of his life Barlow was quoted in the Manchester Guardian: "I don't think any cricketer has enjoyed his cricketing career better than I have done, and if I had my time to come over again I should certainly be what I have been all my life – a professional cricketer". Barlow had a wife, Harriet, and a daughter, Eliza. He died 31 July 1919 in Stanley Park, Blackpool, and is buried in Layton Cemetery. On his tombstone is inscribed 'bowled at last'.
