Description | The Washington, DC Evening Star, June 13, 1870: "The American game of "Base Ball" has been instituted at Dingwall, Scotland." Dingwall was then a seaport in extreme northern Scotland. To the same end, the New London [CT] Democrat, June 25, 1870: "Scotland announces the introduction there of "the American game of base ball." We pity Scotland." and the Springfield [MA] Republican, Aug. 19, 1870: "Base-ball is popular in Scotland." The Inverness Courier, May 5, 1870, reports the formation of the Dingwall BBC. See also the Inverness Courier, June 16, Sept. 3, 1870; Inverness Advertiser, Feb. 18, March 10, 11, April 18, 22, 1871. The latter says that play is to commence on April 24th. Many of the Dingwall players were local, including one who had just returned from the US. |
