| Text | The Mutual Club has set an example worthy of imitation, and which we hope to see generally followed.–We quote from the New York Times–“The members of the celebrated Mutual Club, on Christmas Day, presented to Mr. Charles A. Peverelly a bookcase, desk and wardrobe, all of rosewood, costing between $300 and $400. Mr. Peverelly is well known as a reporter of aquatics, base ball and cricket matches, his rowing and yachting contributions to Wilkes’ Spirit of the Times for many years past being a feature of that journal. The resolution was passed some time since, and committee, consisting of Messrs. James O’Neill, Vice-President of the Club, John M. Oaklord [sp?] and John J. Foley, was designated to carry out the intentions of the club.” Now, let the leading clubs of New York hold a meeting, and pay a compliment to another deserving Reporter–Mr. Henry Chadwick–whose services to the National Game have been inestimable. The Athletic Club will gladly support this proposition.–At the same time, the clubs of Philadelphia ought to show their appreciation of the talent and enthusiasm of Mr. McConnell of the Press, and Mr. Cunnington of the Inquirer. Who will move in this matter? |
