[Philadelphia vs. Young Bachelors 8/7/1866] Mr. Vanhook, the manager of Oakdale, is determined to enforce the rules adopted for the government of the park. A fellow planted himself on the topmost seat of the ladies’ pavilion on Tuesday and commenced squirting tobacco juice right and left, to the annoyance of ladies and to the detriment of sundry coat tails. He was reproved by Mr. V., but paid no heed to it, and in consequence was landed outside the grounds. This is a good beginning for Oakdale, and Mr. Vanhook’s prompt action will be the means of deterring others who might feel similarly inclined.
