| Data | “Base ball” was one of the amusements enjoyed by teachers, children and friends of the Temperance Hall Baptist Sunday School of Newbury, Berkshire, at their annual outing, a “water party” that commenced with a two-mile barge ride down a canal. After landing at a meadow they were provided a tea, and then, according to a newspaper account, “The cake, &c., formed an industrial occupation for about a half-an-hour, after which the usual formalities of cricket, base ball, boating, &c., were entered into with great zest by old and young.” |
