During his time, it was not necessary to record the number of runs conceded in a scorecard - so the vast majority of those innings would not have runs conceded recorded and cricinfo have probably just divided the number of recorded runs conceded by the number of wickets. Cricinfo should ideally have that footnote, but I doubt they know it themselves. It was not until the 1870s that it became a norm for the number of runs conceded to be recorded in the score book.
