Arthur George Paul
Arthur George Paul (24 July 1864 – 14 January 1942) was an Irish sportsman from Belfast who played rugby union as a full back for Swinton and also played first-class cricket for Lancashire. He did not play for England or Ireland in rugby.
In 1888 he joined the first British Isles tour to New Zealand and Australia. The tour had no official rugby union support and no matches against national teams. It included 35 matches against invitational sides. Paul played 29 of those games, kicking 13 conversions and one dropped goal. He died in Didsbury, England, in 1942.
