Description

The Owyhee Semi-Weekly Tidal Wave (Silver City) July 23, 1869: "The Chronicle claims the first organization of a baseball club in the territory for Company H, at Fort Boise. If we mistake not, Flint District, in this county, is entitled to the honor of first organization, unless the Boise institution is more that six months old."

Silver City (founded 1864) was once a booming mining town and the seat of Owyhee County. It is now a ghost town. It had a pop. of 960 in 1870. Flint is 10 miles southwest of Silver City. It is also a ghost town.
