Text | Editor of the Herald: Isn't it about time that this Base Ball literature was played out? Nobody has any objection to the boys getting together and enjoying themselves in a game of ball, but why in the name of common sense the public should be bored with long accounts of games between companies of boys I can't imagine. The mass of the people care just about as much, and no more, about the result of a game between the coppertoes of Spunkeyville and the short jackets of somewhere else, as they do about a game of marbles between little Patsy Broligan and Jeminy O'Toole. OLD FOGY. |
