| Data | “Baseball” was among the games played at the annual outdoor gathering of students and teachers of the “North Seaton Weseylan (sic) Sunday School” at a field in the village of North Seaton, Northumberland: “They met at the school, where the children were presented by their teachers with two oranges each, after which they marched to the above field, where the fun started. The smaller scholars ran races for nuts and sweets, given by their teachers, and the girls contested by skipping for their share. Some amused themselves with the football, and some with the game of baseball, also some with kissing-ring.” |
